Setting up OpenDNS on a MK83
Ok. Please excuse the ignorance. but I haven't played with my home network in a long time. I'm setting up the MK83 to use OpenDNS. what I've done so far.
I changed the DNS numbers on the router to the OpenDNS numbers.
Registered with OpenDNS and added my network with the IP detected by OpenDNS.
I went to the router settings / Advanced set up / Dynamic DNS and selected use Dynamic DNS service. ater creating an account with NoIP.com and entered my login info. clicked status and got a good response. (<userename.****.net> updated successfully at 12:45AM,08/02/2021) user name and *** just in case... LOL
and that is how far I got.... what I'm I supposed to do after ? so that OpenDNS gets my new IP if and when it changes. or is that alll I need. to do?
Thanks.

So noIP.com had me change my IP in my noIP account to 1.1.1.1 and restart my router. to verify that the IP would get updated. well. it didn't. what am I missing?
