I checked the router settings and there seems to be a setting specifically for Dynamic DNS Client. There’s three options included with DynDNS, NoIP and DtDNS. NoIP says it’s free so I will probably use that service.
I’m going to assume having that setting there is a good sign for me and what I want to do. Possibly reduce some potential headaches.
I’ll consider PieFed in the future as well. It does have some features and ideas overall that seem appealing to me. One thing at a time though.
The modem/router also handles port forwarding which has been pretty common on all the modem/routers I’ve used in the past. Didn’t even register that as a concern haha.
That’s good to know the Pi can handle DynDNS as well. Would be nice to keep all that information contained to one device, simply for my sanity.
