This week there was an unfortunate outage on the mynetname.net Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS) that MikroTik hosts for free to their customers. Many MikroTik users all over the world rely on this service for remote access to their MikroTik infrastructure. Official documentation is here: https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:IP/Cloud#DDNS

I thought it would be useful to share what I learned about how RemoteWinBox solves this problem for its customers, so that you too can can roll your own remote access to your MikroTiks!
