You continue accessing your ReadyNAS by going to without having to know that your NEW IP actually changed to 123.1.1.The DDNS client detects that change and updates to now point to 123.1.1. Tomorrow, your ISP changes your Public IP to 123.1.1.You signed up for the hostname of with a Dynamic DNS provider and associated it with today’s IP of 123.1.1.Once you find out what your NEW IP is, you now access your ReadyNAS at the new IP of.To find out what your NEW, public IP is, you would have to either go home or find other ways to do so. 100, it would no longer work since your IP has changed to. If you attempt to connect to your ReadyNAS at. You remotely access your ReadyNAS by the IP assigned to you today.

It periodically checks if your public IP changed, and if so, it would connect to the DDNS provider and update the hostname with the new IP. This is done in conjunction with running a DDNS client from your home router, server, or ReadyNAS. Having a “static” address allows you to remotely connect to your ReadyNAS or server from anywhere on the Internet using a single address (like ) even if your home IP changed. This essentially gives you a “static” address without paying the high fees charged by the ISP. DDNS allows you to choose an assigned hostname (like ) from a DDNS provider where its associated IP address is dynamically updated whenever your public IP changes. What could you do with such a service? Chances are, your home internet connection has its public-facing IP address change from time to time, as having a “permanent” one - a static IP - would be costly to buy from your internet service provider (ISP). (Apologies for this technical explanation, but going over what DNS is would require an article of its own.) Without going into much detail, Dynamic DNS (DDNS) is a service that, among other features, allows you to update a specific address (ie. Traditionally, routers used to provide that service at no extra charge, including Asus and D-Link, but some companies have either abandoned it or started charging a monthly service fee (looking at you there, Amazon’s Eero!) What is Dynamic DNS? If you have a Netgear ReadyNAS storage device, you may consider installing the “DDclient” app (created by Poussin) to help update your Dynamic DNS service with your current, public IP.
