My ip address of my WRVS4400N changes every so often. when i use the ip assigned to connect remotely, it works until the ip is re-assigned through dhcp. I know there is a way around this bu ysing a name or something. I just don't know how to set that up. Thanks in advance

There are several "dynamic dns" services available, such as www.dyndns.org.  This service requires you to sign up for an account (usually free for basic services) and requires compatible functionality on your routers.  Many routers include the ability to connect to a Dynamic DNS service.

Check the following link.  Do a search for DDNS ("dynamic DNS") and you should find a section entitled "Configuring DDNS Service Settings".  Hope this helps, feel free to post back with further questions.
