DDNS

Get a free DDNS from Duckdns if you don't have one.

info

The free DDNS might not be as reliable. If you are concerned about strict uptime, we recommend considering a paid DDNS such as noip, dyndns.

Steps​

  1. If you don't have a DDNS, you may get one free from DuckDNS.

  2. Firstly, visit Duck DNS.
