ddclient screen not updating

Is there a reason you're not just using the interface?

Ehm, no. How do I choose to get the ip address direct from the interface?  It doesn't seem to be available as an option.

BTW: my isp connectionb is pppoe over vlan.  When configuring Dynamic DNS I've set the to interface to monitor as "WAN" which is the interface assigned to the pppoe device

You changed it to use WAN or it was configured that way previously?

How strange, before replying to your question I checked yet again the GUI. This time, at the bottom of the list of "Check ip method"s, I see "Interface [IPv4]".

I select it and after forcing a line reset, I now see the ipv4 address in the "current ip" column!

I really don't know hoa I could have overlooked that entry in the list.

Thanks CJ for insisting.

I'm glad someone appreciates my persistence.

Good to hear you got it working.  Rechecking your assumptions often solves a lot of problems.
