Description

hi @nachoparker,
i have one suggestion that you are able to use any dyndns provider with following configuration at your config page:

update-url: example: (http://www.ddnss.de/upd.php?user=&pwd=&host=&ip=&ip6=)
domain name: example: (test.ddnss.de)
user: example: (test)
pasword: example: (test)
update intervall: example: (10)
advantage would be to use nearly any provider without actively supporting each of them.
We just need an Update-URL function.

Thanks again for your great work!

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the existing DynDNS configuration and update entry points in the repository, then determine how provider settings are represented. Done means users can configure an update URL, domain, credentials, update interval, IPv4 address, and IPv6 address for an arbitrary provider.
