Here is the reply to the support ticket raised woth No-IP.com - the name is shortened:
=== Hello Kurt,
My name is K., Product Manager at No-IP. Your ticket has been brought to my attention.
NETGEAR and No-IP have a partnership to provide Free Dynamic DNS service within NETGEAR routers. Currently, hostnames on the mynetgear.com domain are exempt from our Free Dynamic DNS 30 day hostname confirmation policy. After reviewing your account, I do see there is a bug in our UI that incorrectly displays an expiring notice for mynetgear.com hostnames. While there is a bug in the UI, these host are still currently exempt from the 30 day hostname confirmation policy.
The bug has been reported to our developers and we will prioritize the work to ensure the display of the expiration notice matches our current policy with mynetgear.com domains.
To address your second question, your No-IP account is a Free Dynamic DNS account, therefore any hostname in your account including mynetgear.com hostnames count towards your free hostname limit.
Regards, K. B. ===
This does mean that if we buy and deploy multiple Netgear routers, only three of them can registered to the NETGEAR mynetgear.com DDNS. This is not very correct for the customer, which is not peritted to open multiple No-IP free accounts. Time to talk to Netgear now.
