Dynamic DNS updating IP address that doesn't match router's IP
This may have been answered elsewhere but I couldn't find a similar question. I'm not talking about NAT here. I understand my devices have different IP addresses that are issued out by the router (ie 192.168.1.n) but my confusion isn't there. The problem seems to be that my "public" IP address doesn't match the routers actual IP. On the admin page, the advanced tab shows the IP address of my router (100.65.140.24). This seems to be my REAL ip address, as i can connect to my home server via port forwarding outside my home network when using that IP address. However, if i use services like http://www.whatsmyip.org then it shows my IP address differently (199.87.86.198). WHen i've set up the dynamic DNS with No-Ip, this is the same address it pushes... so it doesn't work. I don't understand why I seem to have a router IP and an "incorrect" public IP. What's going on there? Does it have something to do with my ISP - and if so, how does my router admin screen know the correct address? Could this be related to IPv6 or some other setting on my router? Is there anything I can do to fix this? Thank all!Solved41KViews0likes4CommentsR7500 - Unable to edit Dynamic DNS settings
I am experiencing the same issue reported by several others at the closed thread: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Nighthawk-WiFi-Routers/R7500-Dynamic-DNS-Issue/m-p/1057157 After I enter my DynDNS settings on the Dynamic DNS page in the R7500's web interface and save them, I am no longer able to access the Dynamic DNS configuration screen. All attempts to access the page are met with the loading message, and the page can never be accessed again unless I reset the R7500 to factory defaults. Has this been fixed in the latest available firmware, V1.0.0.108? Or, is this still broken? Looking for community feedback. Thanks.Solved3.7KViews0likes4CommentsDynamic DNS; providers
Hi! I just bought an AC1900 (R7000) router. I need to configure DDNS, but I cannot find where to input the config for my provider (zoneedit). I'm starting to wonder if the router only supports the 3 providers in the drop down list. I find that hard to believe, seeing that this is not a cheap product. Hope anyone can give me some pointers!
