Any suggestions?
I have such a script, yes. But mine gets the address by asking my current router. Not every hour, but every five minutes.
If you use a dynamic DNS server, you also need the script, unless you get one that is directly supported by your router.
Many routers have a generic setup for dynamic DNS. No local scripting needed. If you have to run wget/curl from cron, you usually don't need to know your own address.
Not exactly. My router only handles DynDNS.org, TZO, and No-IP (my previous router handled even less). They are specific organizations. No other services are allowed.
Well, I did say "many routers", "not every".
Well, I have not seen a single router that has that generic capability. Some provided by the ISP, some I bought, some I used in training.
You clearly have never used a Cisco router, then... ;) -- ============================================================== Rodney Baker VK5ZTV rodney.baker@iinet.net.au CCNA #CSCO12880208 ==============================================================
