Enable DDNS
Select to enable DDNS function.
This free service is very useful when combined with the Virtual
Server feature. It allows Internet users to connect to your Virtual
Servers using a URL, rather than an IP Address. This also solves
the problem of having a dynamic IP address. With a dynamic IP
address, your IP address may change whenever you connect, which
makes it difficult to connect to you.
Service Provider
• Select the desired DDNS Service Provider from the list.
• Details of your DDNS account (Name, password, Domain
name) must then be entered and saved on this screen.
• This device will then automatically ensure that your current IP
Address is recorded by the DDNS Service Provider.
• From the Internet, users will now be able to connect to your
Virtual Servers (or DMZ PC) using your Domain name.
Domain Name
• Apply for a Domain Name, and ensure it is allocated to you.

game can have two-way connections.

receive all the packets originally going to the WAN port/Public IP
address above.

address for DMZ to work properly.
