12. 3. Set Up a Dynamic DNS Service Account
Most ISPs (Internet service providers) assign a dynamic IP address to the router and
you can use this IP address to access your router remotely. However, the IP address
can change any time and you don’t know when it changes. In this case, you might need
the DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Server) feature on the router to allow you and your
friends to access your router and local servers (FTP, HTTP, etc.) using domain name, in
no need of checking and remembering the IP address.
Note: DDNS does not work if the ISP assigns a private WAN IP address (such as 192.168.1.x) to the AP.
To set up DDNS, please follow the instructions below:
1. Visit
http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the password you set for the AP.
2. Go to Advanced > Network > Dynamic DNS.
3. Select the
Service Provider (Dyndns or NO-IP). Enter the username, password and
domain name of the account (such as lisa.ddns.net)
