    To our Dyn free hostname users:

    For the last 15 years, all of us at Dyn have taken pride in offering you and millions of others a free version of our Dynamic DNS Pro product. What was originally a product built for a small group of users has blossomed into an exciting technology used around the world.

    That is why with mixed emotions we are notifying you that in 30 days, we will be ending our free hostname program. This change in the business will allow us to invest in our customer support teams, Internet infrastructure, and platform security so that we can continue to strive to deliver an exceptional customer experience for our paying customers.

    We would like to invite you to upgrade to VIP status for less than $20 -- a 25% discount good for any package of Remote Access (formerly DynDNS Pro). By doing so, you'll have access to customer support, additional hostnames, and more.

    Here's how you get this done in two easy steps:

    - Login to account.dyn.com.
    - Click here to add Remote Access to your cart at the 25% off VIP rate. The discount will be applied upon checkout.

    We thank you for your usage of Dyn through the years, and hope to continue to support you through Dyn Remote Access or other products for years to come. Visit our FAQ page or this blog post for more information.

    Yup here switched to no IP a few years back.

    I used to use both dyndns and no ip dot com.

    Relating to no IP I called about getting a discount relating to "customer loyalty" and did get one this year.

          Those that still have or utilize Pansonic IP cameras still can utilize Pansonic's Dynamic DNS for other stuff too.

          I don't these days but just checked and I am still registered from many years ago. Thinking my very first IP camera was a Panasonic.

          It still working today 24/7 365 days a year; never has failed.

            Some routers (e.g. ASUS) have DDNS capability and even basic VPN built in.

              It is easier to configure a router / firewall with a DDNS client these days than a client inside of your network.

              The DD-WRT replacement OS for many AP / Firewalls also includes DDNS.

              Just had a quickie look at what PFSense offers relating to DDNS clients.
