Wireless-N 150 ADSL2+ Modem Router DGN1000 User Manual
The router contains a client that can connect to a Dynamic DNS service provider. To use this
feature, you must select a service provider and obtain an account with them. After you have
configured your account information in the router, whenever your ISP-assigned IP address
changes, your router automatically contacts your Dynamic DNS service provider, logs in to your
account, and registers your new IP address.
To configure Dynamic DNS:
1. Log in to the wireless modem router at its default LAN address of http://192.168.0.1 with its
default user name of admin and default password of password, or using whatever user name,
password, and LAN address you have chosen for the wireless modem router.
2. In the main menu, under Advanced, select Dynamic DNS to display the following screen.

3. Access the website of one of the Dynamic DNS service providers whose names appear in the
Service Provider drop-down list, and register for an account. For example, for dyndns.org, go
to www.dyndns.org.
4. Select the Use a dynamic DNS Service check box.
5. Select the name of your Dynamic DNS service provider.
6. Type the host name that your Dynamic DNS service provider gave you. The Dynamic DNS
service provider might call this the domain name. If your URL is myName.dyndns.org, then
your host name is myName.
7. Type the user name for your Dynamic DNS account.
8. Type the password (or key) for your Dynamic DNS account.
