Sounds good, thanks! I'll have to watch for that build release for my router.

My one liner script is working good for now but will be nice to stop the 2 min DNS pinging and get the "smart" WAN monitoring working again.

The next public dd-wrt build after -r50671 will have a brand new and improved inadyn 2.9.1...


I tried the latest build 02-04-2023-r51576/ ... and the router (now a R6700v3) locked up on me after a couple hours of running. DDNS seems to work initially, but if the modem reboots, it doesn't notice.... so the IP gets outdated for some time before/if ever updating.

I downgraded to DD-WRT v3.0-r51011 std (12/12/22) and again, I get DDNS updates upon reboot but it does not notice modem IP changes while in operation; but at least it seems not to hang up after running for a while.

I'm also now getting these errors on the DDNS GUI log:

Communication with checkip server api.ipify.org failed, run again with 'inadyn -l debug' if problem persists
Failed to get IP address for custom, giving up!
Communication with checkip server api.ipify.org failed, run again with 'inadyn -l debug' if problem persists
Failed to get IP address for custom, giving up!

I can go report it per Joker's kind advice.

Ok, I'm confused. The ipify.org API is not for DDNS. It is not a DDNS provider that I am aware of.

this is an independent server for the external ip check

and the log message indicates that the server is unreachable

You can just run: http://api.ipify.org/
from your webbrowser.

It is working for me and reports my external WAN IP.

If you want to see what is going on, from CLI:
Code:
killall inadyn
inadyn --cache-dir=/tmp/ddns -e ddns_success --exec-mode=compat -f /tmp/ddns/inadyn.conf -P /var/run/inadyn.pid -l debug -t 5 -C


Logs can be found in /tmp/ddns
