I had this problem for a long time.
After I switched my dyndns provider all is fine...
Something is strange with dyndns and the pfSense updater sometimes...
With the dyndns update tools it runs flawlessly...
But I also have no idea why it does not work sometimes...
If you hit save in the dyndns config it will work again...

Regards,
Martin
