Is your domain at DynDns.org a custom domain ?

Is your domain at DynDns.org a custom domain ?
No, just the "Dynamic DNS".
I'm having problems with DynDns but my domain is a custom domain.
There is more than one report on this forum saying that everything is working fine with DynDns, which is not my case, nevertheless i looked at the script ddnsclient and the wildcards variable is being set.
I don't get any messages in the System Log from the ddns client, it's missing the -l parameter (logs to syslog), do you have any ?
What version of firmware are you using ?
Pete
At the moment custom 1.7.5.6-2 but it was the same with 1.6.5.3 and an earlier version I can't remember.
peteredhair: try looking at this post

I describe there my problems and maybe you are having the same ones.
I haven't yet solved them, i'm still waiting for a solution :(
Only now i've found your post.Quote:

i've also tried a normal nslookup like this:
"~# nslookup members.dyndns.org"
and i get this as result:
"Server: ns2.tvcabo.pt
Address: 212.113.161.226
Name: members.dyndns.org
Address: 63.208.196.94"
So the router is successfully getting the hostname resolved.
Did you solved your problem ?
I've got exactly the same problem.
when i do nslookup i get a similar result to yours (my dns server is different), but when i do a wlanutil nslookup any.domain.anything i only get a blank link, not an ip address.
When i do a ifconfig i get:

which i think is a normal config.
Any news on this problem ?
Thanks

my problem is the DDNS not auto update. I have tried to use the email address for logon but failed.
After changed to using the name to logon, I can manually update the IP to DynDNS.
But, only manual up!!! everytime I restart the WL500g,
the hostname will become invalid.
Another problem is the my.router, I'd manually updated the ip, but the my.router also reply me the old ip. (so, don't use the my.router's dns to verify the ip updated or not.)

the ip address i get on the wl-500g is acheviable from the internet, and it's a public address, so i think that's not the problem.Quote:

I'm convinced that the ddns is not working properly because it doesn't get the address from wlanutil nslookup for members.dyndns.org.
Also the system=dyndns is fixed at the script, in my case i have a custom domain wich might also be the problem.
In order to not change anything for the ddns's that are working would it be possible to add the following in order to see if the problem could be solved :
- another entry on the service drop down menu with "www.dyndns.org (custom domain)" and change the system parameter to system=custom ?
- put the ip address from members.dyndns.org instead of having it resolved by the wlanutil nslookup ?
It could be in the beta2 that way we could test for both the dyndns and custom dns.
Thanks

Try making your own script and put it to the /tmp. When just lauch it to see it's working.
I found the source of the problem:
if [ "$x_DDNSWildcard" = "0" ]; then
WILDCARD="NO"
else
WILDCARD="YES"
fi
The problem is: YES and NO are no valid values. It's ON, OFF and NOCHG, see https://www.dyndns.org/developers/specs/syntax.html
Yeah i got that too.
I'll try to get a working script with the wildcards problem solved and with custom domain too.
As soon as tests prove it is working ok i'll post here.
I cant either get ddns to work, I'm using dyndns.org but the router do some strange stuff. Like replying a IP I'm not using anymore. It doesn't update automatic either.
If I using static ip, DDNS can work even if manually changed ip (see picture). If I using auto. ip or PPPoE, it has none response. So, I think a DDNS initial function working before get the global ip caused problem.
Oleg, how to use script? Actually, I don't know linux. Would you please teach me about the script?

Hi, all.
I have a problem with DynDNS Custom DNS (and domain name) on the wl500g.
Here is the log entries:
Aug 29 10:46:53 ddns update: connected to members.dyndns.org (63.208.196.94) on port 80.
Aug 29 10:46:53 ddns update: invalid hostname: gateway.mydomain.net
There is no problem when I use DynDNS “Dynamic DNS” host (gateway.dnsalias.net)
Mvh

i believe you have to have another account to do so (custom ddns)
