Hi,
problem was solved 1-2 days after posting the message.
I'm having the same issue as pvradu. I have a Netgear Nighthawk X4s R7800 and had been using DDNS using the mynetgear.com domain.
Last night, I noticed that I could no longer see my webcams that use that ddns address. When I try to ping myhost.mynetgear.com, I get replies from 208.91.197.27, which is NOT my public ip address.
If I login to noip.com (which netgear is partnered with) I can see in the dashboard that the mynetgear.com domain has the correct public IP address.If I configure a hostname to ANY other domain, (ex: ddns.net) and ping it, all works fine and it replies with my public IP address as expected.
In fact, if I try to ping nearly ANY hostname using the mynetgear.com domain, I get replies from this address regardless if i am on my home network or cellular - or even my neighbors house. for example - osdnjfosd35fiodsiof61sdmfoisd.mynetgear.com - resolves to 208.91.197.27
There are no host files configured anywhere, and I'm using the DNS server addresses supplied to me from the ISP.
Netgear - what happened?
My reply to this post seems to have removed without any explanation.
I am having the same issue, my ###.mynetgear.com host isn't pointing to my ip address any more. The no-ip dashboard is showing the ip address update is successful and it shows my ip address. But when I ping the address it pings a totally different ip address.
