    I'm not sure where to post this since this isn't a DHCP or a DNS service specific question but instead a dynamic DNS question, but here it is anyhow.

    Has anyone had any luck with getting Dynamic DNS working?

    I've only tried a couple service, specifically Godaddy and No-IP (Free) and none of them seem to be updating.
    Cached IP always shows 0.0.0.0 and never updates.

      @visseroth I use dynu with no problems at all.
      Some of those services need to be able to ping the IP of your router.
      Just to check, add a rule to allow ping on the wan and try to update.

        DynDNS works fine in everything I've tested. There have been some glitches with some services in the past and there maybe in the furture, usually when services change their API etc. Right now I'm not aware of anything that isn't working though.
        You can check the redmine for open dynamic DNS issues.
