DDNS is working ?

Posts: 21 ✭✭

Hi Fizz,

The internet connection is working now, today is my first day as a customer of FIZZ.

I'm trying to setup DDNS, after provide everything (default@duckdns.org) and click button 'Save Changes', it returns error:

-----------------

[ERROR]

Please fill in the DDNS form !

------------------

Am I missing something ?

Thanks.

    @Lei On my knowledge you don't have any telnet or ssh

    Regarding the DDNS is your provider on the list?

    Hi @Lei

    Probably you missed some information, can you post an image, deleting the informations

    And other question: does the modem provide telnet interface (telnet 192.168.0.1 does not work.).

    Try to use public dns?

    Google 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4

    Try a full reset of the modem:

    The DDNS is not a DNS is a dynamic DNS different story

    @Jess_i88b6 please view the screenshot, I replaced all sensitive data with 'x':

    @Lei

    You should also have the service provider as custom, can you try to use it and put this format on the custom field

    https://www.duckdns.org/update?domains={YOURVALUE}&token={YOURVALUE}

    @Jess_i88b6 not sure I understand it, no option 'custom' as a service provider, is it what you mean ?

    I'm using duckdns.org for my previous modem, it's working fine, it's ok to switch to another one if some of them in the list are free, any suggestions ? thanks.

    Yes I meant that

    For curiosity can you try to set a dyndns.org with fake informations on the modem to see if you can save it

    Try 'dyndns.org' with fake data:

    And then get error: "Failed connect to DDNS server, please wait a moment and try again."

    Then I try 'duckdns' again, get same error:

    At least it seems to try to save them with dyndns, since they tried them

  • Posts: 21 ✭✭

    @Jess_i88b6 The settings get stored, but always error:

    Failed connect to DDNS server, please wait a moment and try again.

    is it possible that is modem issue ?

    Is the 'Host Name' a domain name on duckdns.org, e.g. leiyang.duckdns.org. ? @Jess_i88b6

    Didn't you take the Fizz modem? It's easy to configure and no charge no activation fee.

    The hostname is the machine name, therefore, the second

    Try host name leiyang without duckdns.org

  • Posts: 11,698 ✭✭

    Any news on this?

  • Posts: 21 ✭✭

    @Andrei_ref_R7VK1 'leiyang' without duckdns.org does not work, did you try it before ?

    I have the same issue.

    I think I understand the source of the bug. The form takes username/password for every ddns except duckdns.

    The username/passwords fields are shown/hidden depending on service provider selected.

    But when we hit save, it checks for username/password (even for duckdns), if you fill them for any other provider and then change for duckdns, it sends username/password so the error is different, it will fail the connection after few seconds.
