Model: Archer A5  
Hardware Version: V4
Firmware Version: 3.16.0 0.9.1 v600c.0

I have tried all available firmware versions on my Archer C5, but this problem is in all of them: my dynamic address is updated with the wrong IP.

 

My ISP does not show my real IP to the public. Since the router sends that one to NO-IP, it is not possible to access my router remotely.

 

I think the current way of sending the IP address to NO-IP is just wrong. The real/private IP address of the router is available on the status page, so why can't we send that one? Instead of this, the router logs in to NO-IP, and updates with the inaccessible/public IP address...

 

Is there a workaround?

Update: I asked my ISP to remove my connection from their NAT list. They did it, so the problem is solved this way. But I still think there should be a solution in the router settings to use the private IP at the Dynamic DNS providers.
