First, does the ip-address actually change? I also have a "dynamic" 
ip-address. But it hasn't changed for at least 3 years now.

Second, wheneven I want to do something on my LAN or on the monowall 
from somewhere else than my home, I first setup a VPN to the monowall. 
That way I think it is a lot safer than to open the monowall to the 
outside world directly.

Just my 2 cents.

Good luck,

Wilko
