Billion 8900AX not updating N0-IP
Posted: Thu Oct 01, 2020 2:05 pm
I have said router and have a DDNS account with No-IP. A few weeks ago I could not connect remotely but I have now discovered the reason to be was N0-IP had not updated the IP Address. Setting it manually in my No-IP account it then worked fine.
I then did a test reboot of the router getting a new IP Address but No-IP was not updated, even after 24 hours.
Investigating further I discovered that the Dynamic DNS Server entry was "www.dyndns.org(custom)" not the "www.no-ip.com" I had chosen on initial setup. I changed the entry to read correctly and applied the new setting. However, as soon as i returned to that entry it had changed back to the incorrect entry!
This presumably explains why No-IP is not getting updated - and how do I rectify this fault?
