Hi Guys I recently set up an OpenVPN service on my router and everything is working well. In the past when I was away I streamed/connected using No-IP. As my VPN provider protects me by connecting through an encrypted tunnel and my external IP address is now different from my WAN IP address, I can't connect through No-IP when my WAN IP address is changed by my ISP. Historically I have changed the WAN IP address manually in my No-IP account but as I don't want to leave a computer running if I'm away I lose my ability to stream. My VPN provider does not allow Port Forwarding. This may be a naive question but is there a way of finding my changed WAN IP address over the internet? I cannot see a way of doing it but I wondered how you more capable guys manage this issue. Regards :confused::confused:

Menu - Setup - System - Network - Inadyn Setup works well for this.

As I understand how these lrogs work they will update with the VPN generated IP address. Frank
