Priority order can be changed by removing all and adding them back in again. 2. In ATM mode, if only a single PVC with IPoA or static IPoE protocol is configured, Static DNS server IP addresses must be entered. 3. If you cannot locate the static DNS server IP information, ask your ISP to provide it. 4. The default settings are recommended if you are unsure about the DNS server addresses. If a wrong DNS server address is configured, webpages may not be open. Dynamic DNS (DDNS) If your Internet service provider (ISP) gave you a static (fixed) public IP address, you can register a domain name and have that name associated with your IP address by public Domain Name Servers (DNS). However, if your ISP gave you a dynamic (changing) public IP address, you cannot predict what your IP address will be, and the address can change frequently. In this case, you can use a commercial Dynamic DNS service. It lets you register your domain to their IP address and forwards traffic directed at your domain to your frequently changing IP address. If your ISP assigns a private WAN IP address (such as 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x), the Dynamic DNS service does not work because private addresses are not routed on the Internet. Click Advanced Setup > DNS > Dynamic DNS to enter the Dynamic DNS screen.
