Using Free Dynamic DNS Services For Digital recording device Connection

Within my last article "Setup Web Connection To Digital Dvr Behind Router" we've spoken about Web connection setup to security Digital recording device, according to static IP. I suppose that anybody reading through this information is not too much fortunate, and may not get static IP connection from Isp (Don't be concerned, you're not alone). IP amounts as being a telephone numbers are now being quickly depleted plus some Web service provider took appropriate actions to insure that pool of IP addresses is going to be readily available for extended future. It's the primary reason, why some companies made the decision to allocate static addresses to commercial accounts only. In some instances the only real available high-speed provider may be the Cable Company. Cable DSL doesn't offer static IP whatsoever however it has greater speeds.

So, exactly what do we all do?

You will find a number of different options, however in this tutorial I'll concentrate on the free options. Before I enter in the particulars, allows take a look at DNS term. DNS is brief for Domain Title System or Server it requires Ip as input and attempts to mach it to known domain title. Within our situation we will use dynamic domain title services to update our Ip because it changes and assign that IP to given domain title. Than we use that domain title to gain access to our security Digital recording device.

Option 1:

For stand-alone security Digital recording device the suggested alternative is by using Linksys WRT54G Router, that has DDNS support. Very first time to and setup free account, using the account info available, login towards the Router and visit DDNS page. Choose dyndns.com for that company and kind in password. After saving the Router will be sending IP updates for your dyndns.com account and despite your dynamic IP the bond will be submitted for you current IP.

Option 2:

For PC based surveillance DVRs, if Digital recording device does not have its very own DDNS support, go to exactly the same company at and again account needs to be setup, however in this situation rather than using Router for upgrading we'll download updater software. The updater software programs are more reliable than Router updater, however it needs computer running whatsoever occasions. That's why updater software programs are better in PC based Digital recording device, because it will run non-stop. Both choices are totally free and can let us have the ability to access surveillance Digital recording device with dynamic IP.

Best Of Luck!
