I tried that a few years back, and had problems with the service.
My Verizon router used to (may still have) and option to integrate with a DDNS service and perform the update. The problem was it did not work. When I attempted to troubleshoot it, I could not get effective help from the service. They would reply back with "Have you tried X" rather than inspecting the log files and telling me where things went wrong on their side. The issue could have been downlevel router software, and outdated service API code. But I could not get Verizon or Actiontec to answer questions, either. I could not even get Verizon to add the DNS A-records (for reverse lookups) when I was purchasing commercial service from them. Its quite maddening to deal with ISPs and those commodity routers. Lately, I've been thinking about using powermac.deltoid.com. OpenSRS is my registrar, but I have not had the time to look up the API and write the code.
