OpenWRT – DDNS Client – Dynamic DNS with NoIP & Namecheap
In this video, we will setup Dynamic DNS on OpenWRT LuCI. NoIP and Namecheap will be used as an example. This guide will help you configure the DDNS service, so that the router will automatically updates the public IP address to the DDNS provider, which can be either NoIP, Cloudflare, Namecheap, Google and other service providers. At the same time, I will show you the basic concept on how to update the IP address for a dynamic domain via HTTP/ HTTPS.
Basically, install ddns-script and luci-app-ddns should be enought to start the configuration. However, some providers have their own custom protocol/syntax and we need to install addition package. For example, we need ddns-scripts_no-ip_com for No-IP support.
