Re: 7800dxl DDNS (dyndns) not working

After my previous message it seems that it does not work correctly after all.

It seems to update just the ONCE after inputting details for the account, but it never does it again (scheduled or on boot)

I know, because had mail from dyndns that account will expire in 5 days if not logged in.

None of my previous cheap routers had this problem.

Another one to fix Billion!

I am using No-Ip.com, I have to go to their web site and reactivate via their web site (every month), it does not matter if the router is logged in with no-ip.com.

Maybe this is the case with dyndns also.

Hi sebus05,

We have verified with our engineers that DynDNS is working fine with the 7800DXL series. The DynDNS mechanism does not work by regular inform but rather the router will notify the DynDNS server whenever there is a WAN IP change.

Your email from Dyndns regarding the expiry if not logged is not related to the router but rather a policy of Dyndns that requires you to physically log in to their website in order to retain your dynDNS domain.
