Tp-Link TL-MR6400 V3 [57/96] Set up a dynamic dns service account

Chapter 11

Specify Your Network Settings

• Group Key Update Period - Enter the number of seconds (minimum 30) to control the

time interval for the encryption key automatic renewal. The default is 0, indicating no

key renewal.

• WMM - This feature guarantees the packets with high-priority messages being

transmitted preferentially. WMM is enabled compulsively under 802.11n or 802.11ac

mode. It is strongly recommended to enable WMM.

• Short GI - This feature is enabled by default and recommended to increase the data

capacity by reducing the Guard Interval (GI) time.

• AP Isolation - Select this checkbox to enable the AP Isolation feature that allows you

to confine and restrict all wireless devices on your network from interacting with each

other, but still able to access the internet. AP isolation is disabled by default.

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).
