Chapter 11 Specify Your Network Settings • WDS - Select this checkbox to enable the WDS (Wireless Distribution System) Bridging feature to allow the router to bridge with another access point (AP) in a wireless local area network (WLAN). Refer to FAQ for detailed instructions. 11. 5. 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 router. To set up DDNS, please follow the instructions below: 1. Visit http://tplinkmodem.net, and log in with the password you set for the router. 2. Go to Advanced > Network> Dynamic DNS. 3. Select the DDNS service provider (Dyndns or NO-IP). If you don't have a DDNS account, select a service provider and click Go to register. 4. Enter the username, password and domain name of the account (such as lisa.ddns. net). 5. Click Login and Save. Tips: If you want to use a new DDNS account, please log out first, then log in with the new account. 11. 6.

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 router.
To set up DDNS, please follow the instructions below:
1.
Visit
http://tplinkmodem.net
, and log in with the password you set for the router.
2.
Go to
Advanced
>
Network
>
Dynamic DNS.
3.
Select the
DDNS service provider
(Dyndns or NO-IP). If you don’t have a DDNS
account, select a service provider and click
Go to register
.
4.
Enter the username, password and domain name of the account (such as lisa.ddns.
net).
5.
Click
Login
and
Save
.
Tips:
If you want to use a new DDNS account, please log out first, then log in with the new account.
