Howto setup router to enable Dynamic DNS

Dynamic DNS is a service that allows you to access a router or internal local network resources from the Internet using a simple and understandable address, for example, home.didns.ru. Even if the provider does not provide a static IP, the domain name will always point to the current address.

DDNS setup

Configuration example

DynDNS parameters

Open the settings of your device (for example, a router), usually it is http://192.168.0.1 and configure according to the description:

  • Service profile custom
  • DDNS Server dynupdate.alviy.com
  • URL path for update nic/update?hostname=
  • Host Name your DDNS domain
  • User name login (email or unsername).
  • Password pass

Or you can send a GET request using the curl/wget utility:

"http://USERNAME:PASSWORD@dynupdate.alviy.com/nic/update?hostname=DOMAIN&myip="

DDNS protocol alternative

Not always the router has all the capabilities for the desired DDNS settings. In this case, there are two options for regularly updating the address:

  • Call a GET request to the Secure Update URL, which can be found in the settings of each DynDNS domain at https://cloud.alviy.com/ddns/
  • Use client software - DUC (Dynamic Update Client), more details at page
