Hi everyone,
I'm working to setup DDNS on my router (Linksys E3200) and running into a weird error. I have DDNS working perfectly on the same firmware version (62365) on different hardware (Netgear R6220).

I'm Running v3.0-r62365 (and also encountered the same error on a newer version.... but forgot to not the version number before downgrading.)

DDNS Configuration:
Enable Service: FreeDNS
Username: [MyUser]
Password: [MyPassword]
Hostname: [myhost].mooo.com
Use External IP Check: No
Force Update Interval: 10

Log:
In-a-dyn version 2.12.0 -- Dynamic DNS update client.
Update forced for alias [myhost].mooo.com, new IP# XX.YY.ZZ.215
OpenSSL error: wolfSSL error occurred, error = 140 line:22642 file:../src/internal.c
OpenSSL error: wolfSSL error occurred, error = 140 line:10333 file:../src/ssl.c
Cannot find your FreeDNS account API keys

I did notice, compared to the Netgear, this router is missing the 'use SSL' option. When I was troubleshooting on the newer version, I did disable SSL in the CLI, just to be sure. Same error occured.

Screenshot attached.

Thoughts/ suggestions are welcome.

Get a better router. The E3200 has only 8M of flash space. Not enough to include SSL.

The only suggestion I can give is testing the current release. WolfSSL is intended for targets that previously couldn't support OpenSSL AFAIK. You may be on a release where things are broken.

Thanks everyone.
I tried flashing the most recent (63123) and it went from having 2 errors to just one. This made me suspect it was something with the firmware. I randomly picked an older version (Firmware: DD-WRT v3.0-r60137 mega (03/08/25)) and now everything is working as-expected. I suspect something got broken between 60137 and 62365...
