Dynamic DNS - The Good, The Bad and The Cheap?

Posted by Cliff on from the living-without-a-static-ip dept.

flyman asks: "I recently was 'downsized' from a company, and have had to really cut back on expenses. One of those cut-backs was to cancel my business class DSL with static IPs. I have since signed up for standard Cable Internet, which only has dynamic IPs. I know there are several DDNS providers out there, but which ones are good? Easy to use? Free or cheap? I still want to host some dev sites from home, if possible. Any advice would be appreciated."

    I would try dyndns.org. Your first five hostnames are free. :)
