DynDNS update using HFS, problem since a few days (dyndns.org)

[ge2001]

Hi,
HFS: Menu -> Dynamic DNS Updater -> DynDNS wizard displays:

12:37:04 New external address: 91.1.78.80 via www.checkip.org
12:37:05 DNS update requested for : no reply

Self Test ok. More than 48 hours no connection to my website possible ...
Using HFS 2.3 beta 267, the same behaviour with the last stable version.

After using the original Dyndns updater program everything works fine, connection possible.

Anybody else encounter the same behaviour ?


Thanks

I received an email last week saying DynDns were limiting their DNS service to 2 per user. If you have more maybe it has been deleted.

Hi,
only 2 accounts, also no email notification from dyndns received (abuse etc ...).
Now, with dyndns updater the connection is very stable.
In the past, using HFS, very very often the connection was lost for hours.
Could it be that the HFS updater needs an improvement ?
Maybe dyndns will force us to use the dyndns updater ?

I will keep an eye on that behaviour.

after the "for", your domain is supposed to be shown.
no real update was performed.
maybe the information is lost and you have to re-do the wizard.

Hi,
I encounter the problem described in the first post until the first time using HFS.
Using the dyndns updater program everthing works fine, but only for some hours.

The log file from the dnydns updater software several times logged:'09-01-2010 16:05:19 - Unable to determine WAN IP.  Can't update.'
That is realy crazy because my wireless lan network works perfectly.
I'm irritated  and bugged because it is always the same problem over a long time now.
Maybe i must check the router settings and the windows network configuration ...

did you try to re-do the wizard in HFS ?

Hi,
you mean:
HFS: Menu -> Dynamic DNS Updater -> DynDNS wizard

Yeah

Another strange behaviour noticed in the past was that other people can access my website via the internet but i can't access it from home, only via localhost.
I also try the command line: ipconfig /flushdns and deleting the browser cash without success.
Sometimes the best solution was to restart the notebook, but than i must reopen all my programs again ...
It happened also with my old notebook which is broken since a few month.

this is normal and expected.
it's a limit of your router.
