Anyway, it is not symmetric bandwidth. It is 300 Mbit download, and I don't remember what upload, but much less, perhaps 30. Another competitor offers 300 symmetric. I'll have to check again what I really have now, then get dyndns or something (whatever my router supports directly, I guess).
You can always run a dyndns update from a cronjob.
Yes, I know. But there will be an interval, after my ISP changes my IP till the script runs, that they will not match. My router has settings for DynDNS.org, TZO, and No-IP. I have not investigated any. At least, not recently. Years ago, I managed to write a script that logged into my router and interrogated it for the external IP. In my current router I don't see I can do this. The advantage is that it is fast, not requiring to query an external web page. I have a script that does this, but the response takes several seconds and sometimes fails completely and has to be repeated. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
