problems with custom dyndns after upgrade
2024-06-02 12:13:53

  @Clive_A 

 

Hello

 

I use freedns.afraid.org for my dyndns.

 

After upgrading my ER706W to 1.1.0 Build 20240523 Rel.71270(4555) AND linux controller to V5.14.20 - ddns is broken, since it is sending out only the real WAN IP (which is IP Adress of Fritzbox) and not the public internet IP as it was before the upgrade.

 

Does someone have same problem? Unfortunately I upgraded both simultanous so I can not say, is it router upgrade or controller upgrade issue.

 

ps: before the "upgrade" everything worked well.

ps2: the problem with ER706W that is limited to 100Mbit after reboot on WAN2 port still exists. After rebooting again, 1Gbit is working again.

 

 

Thanks

thank for feedback. No-IP service is implemented to the omada. Afraid-DNS not, so only custom dynDNS is possible.... if you could test "custom" DNS on your hardware please?

I solved the issue on my own:

 

Afraid DNS custom update URL is:

 

http://[USERNAME]:[PASSWORD]@freedns.afraid.org/nic/update?hostname=[DOMAIN]&myip=[IP]

 

that was always working.

 

I deleted everything after [domain]

http://[USERNAME]:[PASSWORD]@freedns.afraid.org/nic/update?hostname=[DOMAIN]

 

and NOW the public IP is coming correctly.

I have no custom ddns to test, my bee tp-link can help you with that.

 

I did a test here as I was a bit scared by what you wrote smiley this function is important to me. but with no-ip it still works.

Not sure if this is an overarching issue or expected functionality however i have an issue with port forwarding with this firmware loaded

 

It seems when selecting Source IP - Any, all internal traffic to the port-forward destination will route via the WAN IP

For example:

I have 2 VLANs with no ACLs in place

If I have port forwarding OFF I can connect via ServerLANIP:Port from ClientLAN and wireshark shows the connection with the source IP as ClientLANIP

However if i turn ON the port forwarding I can still input the ServerLANIP:Port and connect however wireshark shows the source IP as WANIP

Wireshark is captured at the destination

NAT hairpin. Do you experience a problem with this?

From what i understand hairpinning is when I can connect from an internal IP to my WANIP and get routed via port-forward back to an internal IP.

In my case it is internal to internal getting routed via wan. It indeed sounds like it is being caught by the hairpin but I believe it shouldn't

Curiously it only happens in inter-vlan routing, whereas when the 2 IPs are in the same VLAN it works as i would expect

 

I'm having client identification issues since it keeps routing everything via my WAN

It is the NAT hairpin(AKA loopback). Expected behavior.
