I also fell into this trap: The used FreeDNS URL was reverted from FreeDNS v2 back to FreeDNS v1 (i.e. from https://sync.afraid.org/u/TOKENV2/ back to https://freedns.afraid.org/dynamic/update.php?TOKENV1/).

As there seems to be some discussion of which URL to use for FreeDNS (see https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/issues/2428), I made the suggestion to just allow for both by letting the user chose between FreeDNS v1 and FreeDNS v2 with the appropriate URLs.

Please give my comment on the above issue a thumbs up, if you agree. ;-)

   I just updated to 21.7.5 and faced the same problem.
   I, definitely, like the idea of offering both URLs. Not only to resolve this issue but also to help in migrating form one to the other.
   I had a few routers connected to Bell DSL service which actively changes IPs each reboot. I had to call someone behind these routers to give me the new IP address so I can login and use the PW for FreeDNS v2.
