  • HE DDNS on SSG

    This is a copy/paste from https://forums.he.net/index.php?topic=3194.0.  I’m keeping it here in case that post ever disappears and I need a reference. This isn’t something people do often, so I figured I would add a post about it (mostly so I can Google it myself in a few years…) To configure Dynamic DNS (DDNS) updates on…
