yeah that would NOT go over well in my house either.
any problems using openDNS? just as fast as normal?
i'm still not sure how dns-omatic will resolve my problem using afraid.org as my DDNS provider in my router setup.
it seems you *have* to select an existing DDNS server from the dropdown and simply putting in my afraid credentials would fail to authenticate.
finally, got any good tips on web-access to your router? i'd like to be able to hit the admin UI from my phone but want to limit it to my cell phone only.
is that possible? i know i could restrict it to a certain IP address but i don't think that will work for a cell phone will it?
ETA i'm compiling a list of these features and will put together a simple FAQ for people on here who are looking to upgrade their router to a more secure product.

I've never had any trouble using openDNS. It's fast enough that I never notice any lag.
To use afraid.org you would set up an account on dns-o-matic and register your afraid.org credentials to this account. You would then point your router's DDNS server to your dns-o-matic credentials.
As far as accessing your admin UI from outside, I believe it's going to be hard to limit it to your phone. Your phone ip address changes often, and it would be too much work to update your router to allow just that ip. One option would be to set up a vpn connection from your phone to the router, then access it.

Just checked my DDNS settings and here they are:
Server: www.dnsomatic.com
Host Name: all.dnsomatic.com
User Name: (dnsomatic username)
Password: (dnsomatic password)
Enable wildcard: No
You will need your afraid.org key to register it on dns-o-matic.
