The models are obviously not the same, but I am hoping they might be similar enough that the information might be useful. The OP of the thread was having this problem as was abm100 about 5 or 6 posts from the top. I followed these instructions to set up my router's setting page here (I'm not using dd-wrt firmware, the required info just seems to be the same and the page makes for a quick reference)Īnd while searching for the root of the problem I DID come across a post on google, where a similar model of router was having the same problem (DIR-825) here. I've tried both my user name and email and neither seem to make a difference, (Though either work just fine for ) If needs be I can post a picture, though that was copied and pasted straight from my routers settings display (minus all of the astrik marks of course ) The settings that I have configured into my router are as follows. The problem is when I place the credentials into the ROUTER though and click the "Save Settings" button, the status notifier reads that it is attemption to make a connection for a bit before declaring it is "Disconnected"

Not only that, it records the time and date, as well as the status of the connection for the instance when the page was accessed in the status logs of my DNS-O-Matic account. I have been able to connect to DNS-O-Matic through other means outside of the router, and everything works fine that way.Įverything looks good, and that link updated EVERYTHING after that, and the system ran as it should. The only changes made to the router since the last factory reset several months ago was to change the login info and to forward a few ports and try to get the Dynamic DNS service running. I didn't perform a factory reset before updating the firmware and I haven't performed one yet. I updated it just about an hour or two ago in response to the problem I am having now, but the newer firmware did not have a fix. I am currently running firmware version 1.05. Using the feature, I've been able to get the router to connect to individual places I currently have umbrella'd under DNS-O-Matic, such as, and those work fine, but when I put the required credentials in for DNS-O-Matic, it refuses to connect. So as I posted above I am trying to set up DNS-O-Matic with the routers Dynamic DNS feature. The same was pretty true for Google also, when I forced a search for "DIR-826L" and "DNS-O-Matic"

When I put in DNS-O-Matic or just dnsomatic, nothing came up. Alright, sorry if this has been discussed before, and I missed it, but I swear I used the search feature up above for the DIR-826L.
