Nighthawk M1 Dynamic DNS support
Hello, Can anyone please confirm whether the Nighthawk M1 router supports Dynamic Dns so it can be used for remote access without a fixed IP? Thanks in advance David.

As far as I can tell there is no Dynamic DNS support in any of the menu options which is very disappointing. If you have port forwarding support you should really have Dynamic DNS support. Hopefully, some new firmware comes out soon with this feature enabled. If you do not have Dynamic DNS on the router then there is no ability for the device to tell DNS services of a change of IP address as far as I am aware. Any idea if Dynamic DNS is being added in an upcoming release Netgear support? If so how far away otherwise I will need to look at purchasing alternative Mobile Broadband units such as Netcomm?

Hello JohnMcG007
No plan at the moment for Dynamic DNS
