DDNS requests - DDNS sends a request every 3 seconds
Orbi RBR50 v2.5.1.8 DDNS (No-IP) is sending an update back to the mothership every ~3 seconds. An analysis of DNS traffic shows a majority of all traffic for the router is going to ipcast1.dynup...
Is your DDNS working? i.e. DDNS was set up so that a port could forwarded, OpenVPN set up, or something else?
I suspect that No-ip.com no longer recognizes your account and Orbi is frantically trying to say, "Hey. My IP has changed. Hey. Please tell me you got this!"
One of the things that annoys people is that the default "free" DDNS from No-ip.com has to be renewed every 30 days or it disappears. After I established that OpenVPN works on the Orbi, I paid them.

Yes, DDNS is working (OpenVPN can connect fine... minus a MAC address issue).
OpenVPN documentation talks about updates every 3 seconds or a "X" time for proxy setups. I'd like to have it report the IP to No-Ip every 5-10 minutes (if not longer).
