You can log in securely, and all pages load quickly. The settings are displayed so they can be edited quickly, and will even prompt you to change password every ## weeks or so. Support is always quick, within 24 hours and I haven't gotten a canned message unlike many other companies. I would recommend ZoneEdit.com as well. :) (edit) - Oops, I missed the dynamic part of your post. ZoneEdit doesn't offer dynamic assignment. You can probably set up a CNAME through dyndns.com or something... but then again - you might as well just use dyndns in this case! ;) |
