Yes (OpenWRT), but the last time I tried it, I couldn't get it to work. I've updated OpenWRT a few times since, but have never revisisted the DDNS client feature to see if it would work. > I stopped using ddclient years ago because my D-Link router does the > updates.

I'll soon be switching to a TP-Link ER650 router/firewall when I change ISPs. It only supports a few DDNS services, and Dynu isn't supported (according to the manual). -- Grant
