TPLink DNS
Hello All,
My TP-Link DDNS hostname, xxxx.tplinkdns.com, is showing ‘Already in use’ after I had to perform a factory reset on the router. I own it, but it’s stuck after a router reset. I want to use the same DDNS. How can I unbind it and rebind it to the same router to make sure I can use the same DDNS again?
Best Regards.

Try the following steps.
Step-by-Step Rebinding Process
- Log in to the Router: Connect to your TP-Link router and log in to its web-based management page (usually tplinkwifi.net or 192.168.0.1).
- Navigate to DDNS: Go to Advanced > Network > Dynamic DNS.
- Unbind Current Binding (If necessary): If the DDNS page shows a different or broken binding, click Logout or Unbind to release the current domain name.
- Wait for Release: If you get a "domain name already registered" error, you must log out of the TP-Link ID from the router and wait at least 15 minutes before trying again.
- Re-register/Re-bind:
- Select TP-LINK as the service provider.
- Click Register or enter your existing domain name (e.g., yourname.tplinkdns.com).
- Click Save and Login to bind the domain to the new router configuration.
Handling "Domain Name Already Registered"
If the domain is "stuck," follow these steps:
- Log out of the TP-Link ID: Go to the Cloud/TP-Link ID section of the settings and log out, then log back in.
- Use the Same Account: Ensure you are using the same TP-Link Cloud account that was originally used to register the domain name.
- Alternative: If it still fails, you may need to register a new subdomain name or wait up to 24 hours for the old binding to expire.

@terziyski unfortunately it didn't work and the DDNS is still saying already registered. I have logged out from the TP-Link Cloud ID account from the router for 72 hours and then logged in back to try to add the needed DDNS but it still showed as Already registered.
Please let me know if there is another way i can try.
Thanks

I noticed that you're with the an old FW release for your VR300.
Get the latest FW release ( Archer VR300(EU)_V1.2_220407 ) from here and update it.
The try again the sane steps I've already mentioned.
If that still doesn't help then contact you local support for further assistance.
