How to Configure Remote Access on the D-Link Router

D-Link provides the remote access function in its routers, allowing users to configure the Internet from a distance. The feature works through the DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) services. The practice may be of interest to receive technical support, monitor the network, or change the wireless network password while you are away.

In the following tutorial, you will learn how to configure and disable, if you prefer, the feature on D-Link Wi-Fi devices. The procedure is simple and done in the administration panel of the device, which can be accessed by both the Windows, Linux and macOS computer as well as the Android or iPhone (iOS) phone.
