Created a dyndns account on DynDns.org to allow me to wake pc up over the internet, despite having a dynamic IP. Dyndns is free and allows domain names to be mapped to dynamic ips. The DI624 router is supposed to be able to tell dyndns whenever the IP address changes but the router seems to reboot whenever I try to set it. I suspect a firmware problem. 3 possible workarounds
wait for firmware upgrade
get pc to turn on and run a pc based dyndns update
figure a way to get old Orico router to handle it.
Orico would have to sit between the cable modem and the dlink. Could be temporary till dlink start SVTing their firmware.
