Netgear DDNS registration
I want to setup VPN service on my AC3000 Orbi and have to create a DDNS account. So I did registering my host as <myhostname>.mynetgear.com, my associated mail address and a password.
When I subsequently try to logon using this information nothing happens... Anyone tried this?

What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem? Any router built in here?
How is the VPN configured on the router currentlly? Using defaults?

That is another Netgear router about to be changed to a newer Sagem ditto. But on my former ASUS wifi-router, also with OpenVPN support, traffic went through. It also featured a DDNS service and I had no trouble setting that one up.
Seems somethings wrong with the GUI since the netgear DDSN registration went fine, but I can't seem to log on to it. I don't know if it uses noip or netgear's own service? It just always replies: "The email/account specified does not exist" and the links for resetting refers to noip.com even though I try to use netgear's service... Not that consequent a GUI.
