• Multiple DDNS configs?

  I've been using the DDNS option in the UI to sync with no-ip.com, so that I can remotely access my NAS via Wireguard, and this works great. However, my new router no longer supports DDNS without subscription. I need another DDNS client to sync with opendns.com, to get content filtering and parental controls, as my new router has no options for this. Source: 12 months ago

• Evaluating DNSfilter

  We have used opendns.com for this for years. Might take a look at them. Source: about 1 year ago

• What does this error message mean? How/where do I change the URL?

  Can you visit opendns.com on your home network? The problem likely that site is getting blocked, and can't use the API to get the public IP of your box. Source: over 1 year ago

• Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to calyxos.org

  This might be an issue with my DNS provider. I use opendns.com to filter my DNS queries. They're giving the following reasons for blocking the site... Source: over 1 year ago

• Wi-Fi web filtering

  If all users need the same level of filtering, opendns.com is free and works great. You need a way to forward DNS requests to the Open DNS server, such as a typical Windows DNS. Source: about 2 years ago

• Looking for better service

  Maybe check cloudns.net if they offer what you need, you can also use them as secondary DNS provider if you run your own primary server. Source: about 1 year ago

• [q]uestion? What is the most secure way to remote access to home lab?

  I don't have a static IP, but my clients are still setup to use the DNS name of my routers public facing IP. I use free DNS hosting from cloudns.net, and use another OpenWRT package to that keeps my dynamic dns up-to-date. Source: over 1 year ago

• Who hosts your MX records?

  CF API is definitely easy, but we also use cloudns.net and their API for some of our LE wildcard cert stuff. Source: over 1 year ago

• I bought a custom domain with GoDaddy and originally linked it with WordPress but recently switched to GitHub Pages but my custom domain still directs to WordPress?

  One way to avoid longer propagation period is to use https://cloudns.net (you can try their free plan before committing further). 1m TTL 💪. Source: almost 2 years ago

• DDNs set-up help

  I got a DDNS at cloudns.net and then created an A-Record pointing to the public IP of our fritz.box. Then I set up DynDNS in the Fritz Box, and it says that it is logged on and working. Next, I enabled port forwarding of Port 80 and 443 to my machine. But I still get a ERR_CONNECTION_RESET error on Brave and on Firefox the Website just load indefinitely. Source: over 2 years ago
