UniFi D-Link DIR 615 Wireless Router
The D-Link Wireless Router that comes with a UniFi package isn’t much different with my previous D-Link DSL-2640T.
To access the router administration screen, open up your browser and go to http://192.168.0.1/.
If will ask for a password, the default login is admin and password is blank. Remember to change this after you have finished your configuration.
Although Parental Control is quite common, primarily used to block websites being accessed by client computers, this router has additional options of blocking by IP address and also scheduled time for blocking access.
The other advantage of this router is ability for Dynamic DNS. The Dynamic DNS feature allows you to host a server (Web, FTP, Game Server, etc…) using a domain name that you have purchased (www.whateveryournameis.com) with your dynamically assigned IP address.
In short, you can now host a website from home with a real domain name!
It is worth to know, that the D-Link provide free DDNS Service at https://www.dlinkddns.com/.
Besides that, a Fixed IP from UniFi is only available for subscriber of Biz10 or Biz20 packages that costs RM599 or RM899 per month.

May I please ask, how do you configure the Remote Desktop logon with the DLINK DDNS free service?
@Boh
Depending on which port you are running Remote Desktop with, you can open the port under Advanced > Port Forwarding.
If you’re unsure and you want the easy way out, you can also enable DMZ at Advanced > Firewall and DMZ. This is not advisable though, as it’s like you’re allowing your entire computer to be accessible from the internet.
And do note that you cannot use the first option within the Intranet itself.
