I had to manually change the external IP in OpenDNS file to DDNS name, but I'm using Omada. Either way, as others said, use DDNS. I use noip.com for free. Source: 8 months ago
Before switching to Quantum I was using noip.com and my previous router had setup options so it would auto-update this service when my WAN IP changed. I'd prefer to use noip.com but I guess I don't really mind a switch to dyndns. I would just like to have something working - anyone know how to configure this modem for dynamic DNS?

I've heard a lot about BitTitan but have never used it. And yeah, most of my migrations have been an onsite exchange server to the o365 cloud and go really smooth. The others are usually some free email that comes with the webhost, like rackspace.com email where the owner who has 5-10 employees waited until they were hacked before switching over.
