22.1 Legacy Series / Re: os-ddclient

Has anyone gotten ddclient to work with NameCheap? I was moving to ddclient today after my update to 22.7 and successfully installed ddclient-3.9.1.

Hiya. Just sorted out my ddclient with NameCheap as my DDNS got knocked out in the past day or two whereas it was working before. Not sure if it was NameCheap side or ddclient side changes as I had not pushed updates... Anyhow;

I followed this from NameCheap as a starting point. https://www.namecheap.com/support/knowledgebase/article.aspx/9356/11/how-to-configure-a-ddwrt-router/

Example attached, but in short:

Enabled: Ticked
Service: NameCheap
Username: yourdomain.com (replace with your domain name, in your case blah.com)
Password: the one namecheap gives you when you config DDNS
Hostname: @ (this will direct to blah.com)
Check ip method: Interface
Force SSL: Ticked
Interface to Monitor: WAN

Mine seems to be working now but we'll see. Hope it helps others.
