[Dclug] Need to find my public ip from behind a router

[Sarau, Alex]

For those of us that what to try a dynamic DNS with a router, any
recommendations on which service to go with? I've noticed a bunch of
them out there. I figure all I need is a free service with minimal
features. 

Thanks,
Alex

The $40 router might not have solved the problem anyway.  Mine 
supposedly works with DynDNS, but I still get monthly alerts from DynDNS

  (which I handle manually) because if the IP address doesn't change the

router doesn't contact DynDNS, and they require an update every 30 days 
to keep the record from expiring.
