Has anyone gotten a d-link 614+ router setup to auto notify www.dyndns.org? If so, how. I've tried all their things in the faq, and other sources, with absolutely no luck. All I get in the log is DDNS: no host.
I don't know if this is the same situation, but I have a Linksys BEFSX41 that is supposed to have the same functionality. Unfortunately, it was broken when DynDNS.org updated their system because Linksys didn't follow the spec (see http://www.dyndns.org/services/dyndns/faq.html#93). I can still do updates using software on my comp that checks the ip using http://checkip.dyndns.org
Maybe the D-Link has the same problem.

I've got the D-Link 604 router, and as Trey suggested, you could go to http://checkip.dyndns.org directly, or you could run the ddclient program to keep your IP up to date - it's a package available through YAST on SuSE 8.2 (I'm not sure about 8.1 or older.) My ddclient configuration then uses http://checkip.dyndns.org in the background (run from cron every hour or so.)
Ok, I thought that was it. Thanks to both you and Trey. I did get it sort of working with ddclient, but it sent the local address which is on the same page as the dynamic address. Got to figure out how to get it to read the second one, and not the first..
