For why, contact your ISP.

You can get a static name, such as foo.bar.com (not as cool as that, though

) from http://www.no-ip.com or one of the other myriad of Dynamic DNS Services.
Then, your links would be:
DNAS link: http://foo.bar.com:yourDNASport
Listen link: http://foo.bar.com:yourDNASport/listen.pls

Many ISPs assign IP addresses to node devices dynamically by DHCP. You can try can get a static ip by asking your ISP, or if they don't have that available, you might have to switch ISPs to one that uses static ip addressing. This is an alternative to what festerhead is proposing. Dynamic DNS can work, too.
