SSH access to machine behind router

[B1]

Most Dlink and Linksys( and others) router have the
ability to update your ip through ddns or no-ip.com.
If you don't have the ability it may be a router
firmware upgrade. The client is in the router and all
you'll need is an account with either service and you
can have your dynamic ip bound to your free domain
name. What brand and model router do you have?

If your router doesn't support it then you can just
install the client on a machine within your network(
no difference). No ip has clients for win, mac, and
gnu/nix.
Here is a link to a how to if you choose to use the
no-ip linux client then
