Hi, wonder if someone can help me out.

I've got a domain hosted with GoDaddy and have set the nameservers for the domain to point to ns1-ns4.afraid.org which has propagated successfully.
In my Draytek Vigor 2820n I am trying to configure the DDNS option for FreeDNS. Does anyone have the correct settings that I need to put in to get dynamic updates working?

I have chosen freedns.afraid.org from the service provider list.
For the domain name entered www and domain.co.uk
I have entered the username and password for my FreeDNS account.

When I check the log file, it indicates that the update was successful but when checking the domain through FreeDNS it hasn't updated.

Thanks for any help.

Did you ever get this fixed? Got the same issue with a 2960 and using no-ip for the dynamic dns.
It worked once as the no-ip had my original virgin ip address in it.
The most bizare thing although the ip address was wrong at no-ip end the web site still worked properly. Only when I changed the wan to the new bt infinity connection did it stop working. I had to amnually enter the details into no-ip.
I'm now using there desktop client to up and turned it off on the 2960.
