Set Up a Dynamic DNS Service Account
Most ISPs 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 apply 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 without 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 router.
To set up DDNS, please follow the instructions below:
1. Visit
http://tplinkwifi.net
, and log in with the username and password you set for the
router.
2. Go to
Advanced
>
Network
>
Dynamic DNS
.
3. Select the DDNS
Service Provider
(NO-IP or DynDNS). If you don’t have a DDNS
account, select a service provider and click
Go to register
