Will the registered information be lost or registered by others?If you have not updated the registered information in 90 days, the system automatically deletes the registered information and the domain name may be registered by others.2. I did not register the ASUS DDNS for the router I bought six months ago. Can I still register it?Yes, you can still register the ASUS DDNS service for your router. The DDNS service is embedded in your router, so you can register the ASUS DDNS service anytime. Before registering, click Query to check if the hostname has been registered or not. If not, the system registers the hostname automatically.3. I have registered a domain name before and it has been working well until my friends told me that they could not access my domain name.Check the following:    1. The internet is working well.    2. The DNS server is working well.    3. The last time you updated the domain name.If there are still problems in accessing your domain name, contact the service center.4. Can I register two domain names to separately access my http and ftp servers?No, you cannot. You can only register one domain name for one router. Use port mapping to implement security in the network.E6688_RT-N10U BLACK_Manual.indd   48 7/6/11   9:01:54 AM

But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to ZRUNZULWWHQHQWLUHO\E\\RXUDWKHUWKHLQWHQWLVWRH[HUFLVHWKHULJKWWRFRQWUROthe distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on DPHGLXPFXVWRPDULO\XVHGIRUVRIWZDUHLQWHUFKDQJHRUb) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium FXVWRPDULO\XVHGIRUVRIWZDUHLQWHUFKDQJHRUc) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code.

You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. <RXPD\QRWLPSRVHDQ\IXUWKHUUHVWULFWLRQVRQWKHUHFLSLHQWV·H[HUFLVHRIWKHrights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or RWKHUSURSHUW\ULJKWFODLPVRUWRFRQWHVWYDOLGLW\RIDQ\VXFKFODLPVWKLVVHFWLRQE6688_RT-N10U BLACK_Manual.indd   56 7/6/11   9:01:56 AM

Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through WKDWV\VWHPLQUHOLDQFHRQFRQVLVWHQWDSSOLFDWLRQRIWKDWV\VWHPLWLVXSWRWKHauthor/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. (DFKYHUVLRQLVJLYHQDGLVWLQJXLVKLQJYHUVLRQQXPEHU,IWKH3URJUDPVSHFLÀHVa version number of this License which applies to it and “any later version”, you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation.
