I have recently purchased one of the new ASUS RT-AC66U routers and this router comes with the new aicloud feature. This feature allows you to remotely connect into the router and access any external drive attached as well as your computers shared folders.

My issue arises due my location. I live on a school campus and with this being the case, setting up an IP address that is static and is available from everywhere is not really possible. I have my router which I can setup with a static number but the school breaks theirs down so mine will never stay that way.

I am trying to see if there is a way to make an address static using an update feature or something of that nature to constantly have a new IP when mine changes...

Thanks for the help!

Welcome to TSF!

Given the circumstances you won't be able to set a static ip. If you were getting a public ip you could use dydns to make a domain name that would be updated everytime your ip address dynamically changes.

But most likely you will be getting private IP and dydns service doesn't work with this.

This is what I figured. Any time I go to see my public Ip address is it a 172.0.0 or 168.0.0 which are both private
