Setting up DDNS (Dynamic DNS) allows you to access the router 
from outside your network through the provided ASUS DDNS 
Service or another DDNS service.

To set up DDNS:
1.  From the navigation panel, go to Advanced Settings > WAN 

> DDNS tab.

2.  Configure the following settings below. When done, click 

Apply.

•

  Enable the DDNS Client: Enable DDNS to access the ASUS 

router via the DNS name rather than WAN IP address.

•

  Server and Host Name: Choose ASUS DDNS or other DDNS. 

If you want to use ASUS DDNS, fill in the Host Name in the 

format of xxx.asuscomm.com (xxx is your host name). 

•

  If you want to use a different DDNS service, click FREE TRIAL 

and register online first. Fill in the User Name or E-mail 

Address and Password or DDNS Key fields.

•

  Enable wildcard: Enable wildcard if your DDNS service 

requires one.

NOTES:  
DDNS service will not work under these conditions:
•  When the wireless router is using a private WAN IP address (192.168.

x.x, 10.x.x.x, or 172.16.x.x), as indicated by a yellow text.

•  The router may be on a network that uses multiple NAT tables.
