Dynamic DNS
The Dynamic DNS feature allows you to host a server (Web, FTP, Game Server, etc.) using a domain name that you have
purchased (i.e., www.whateveryournameis.com) with your dynamically assigned IP address. Most broadband Internet Service
Providers assign dynamic (changing) IP addresses. Using a DDNS service provider, your friends can enter in your domain
name to connect to your server no matter what your IP address is.
