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.


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.

*bump*



thanks for the advice on dnsomatic.

i plugged that into my router & it said it was successful. Do i perhaps need to reboot? I am still connecting via NOIP only so I'm wondering if the settings will change the next time the router starts up.

So I have both my NOIP DDNS and my AFRAID DDNS as service at DNSOMATIC.

I guess the next step is to learn a bit more about the openDNS stuff and seeing if I can filter 'pinterest.com'.

FYI, the whole reason for this is ASUS doesn't support AFRAID.ORG (free DDNS) and the NOIP free account is a PITA because you have to click 'i'm still here' once a month or it will delete your DDNS automatically.
