Dynamic DNS
The Dynamic DNS function lets you alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname, so if your ISP
does not assign you a static IP address you can still use a domain name. This is especially useful
for hosting servers via your 3G / 4G connection, so that anyone wishing to connect to you may use
your domain name, rather than having to use your dynamic IP address, which changes from time
to time. This dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address of the router, which is assigned to you by
your ISP.
You first need to register and establish an account with the Dynamic DNS provider using their
website, for example
http://www.dyndns.org/
.

Period:

update when your dynamic IP address changes.
