I think you are barking up the wrong tree there Philip.

Some routers, I'm not sure which ones, can automatically update a dynamic DNS service when they are connected to the net. This allows you to map a global domain name onto a local machine even though you might have a variable IP address.

According to the menu, my SMC router supports: DynDNS.org(Dynamic); DynDNS.org(Custom); TZO.com and dhs.org. I've never used it and I don't know about any other routers either.
