Dynamic IP Setting

WHAT IS A DYNAMIC IP ADDRESS?

A Dynamic IP Address is an IP (Internet Protocol) address that changes each time you connect to the internet. This cuts down on the number of IP addresses large consumer providers need because not all of their customers are using the service at any given time. It also cuts down on bandwidth usage by preventing consumers from hosting servers. Note: a number of companies have started to offer services aimed at updating DNS for dynamically connected clients.

STEP 1: SOFTWARE INSTALLATION – DYNAMIC IP SETTING:

Follow the same procedure as outlined on Page 19 for the Static IP Setting.

STEP 2: DDNS REGISTRATION FOR A DYNAMIC IP ADDRESS:

1. You must have a gateway router that supports DDNS (Dynamic Domain Network Service). Please go to www.dlink.com or www.linksys.com for a list of available routers. To register for a dynamic IP address click on the free site “http://www.dyndns.org” and click on “Account” (please look at the example below).

2. Click on “Create Account”.

3. Register your information (Username, E-mail address & password). Click on “Create Account” when the necessary information is completed.

4. After registering your account, you will receive an e-mail, which contains instructions to activate your account. If you do not follow these directions within 48 hours, you will need to re-register your account.

5. Login your account.

6. Click on “Account” and “Add Host”

7. Users can set up their own DDNS HOST. For example, the user’s Host name is “Lorex.dyndns.org”. Click on “Add

Host” to finish the setting. (NOTE: Some routers don’t support some DDNS HOSTs)
