Description Raymond Jennings 2020-02-08 08:12:14 UTC

Netgear's dynamic dns has went out of service.

I'm currently using an account at noip with a .ddns.net hostname, and I think that ddns.net hostnames as well as general support for noip should be added to the default config file's commented suggestions

Reproducible: Always

Since the shipped config is provied by upstream, I think, you should report this directly to upstream. Otherwise, we would need to release a new revbump is a manually modified config, which needs to be kept in sync with upstream in future.

@titanfold: What do you think?

I agree with Conrad. This should be submitted upstream, especially since they're still active.

We should avoid deviating from their release as much as possible.
