ahhh yes I recall using noip duc when I had 56k dialup and cable years back for sharing information they were a free service the duc was interesting because it directly sent changes of your IP any time you changed you could use like kickme.to/mmiscool for instance so your wan ip was updated with alt dns or dynamic dns which functions as a name server to give you the url. All of which I know you are likely aware of no doubt but possibly others may not. There are a few services like that out there these days.
So do you run your DUC on another PC to give your Domain Name to your IP or do you somehow just manually update it on there website (If the option is even available would be handy but could also be used to unknowingly tie someones IP to a domain without them knowing per say) or do you some how point your esp to NOIP?
And for the record if this works using your WAN IP to access the device remotely should work as well with a server I port 80 I presume while it may or may not give the same privacy.
Do you know if there is any layer of privacy that noip provides if someone actually has the domain name could they not just do a reverse lookup on the donmain kickme.to/mmiscool for instance and see your IP anyways? I realize this would stop most lazy people indeed but, I find people who want your IP for whatever reason are not normally lazy.
For me there is no reason other than privacy to use this due to my IP staying the same for a fair period of time.
Couldn't resist
http://www.noip.com/whois/ allows you to lookup anyone using no-ip so ... I suppose privacy is really not an option with no-ip unless you are connecting through a proxy or using some other method in the middle that uses noip .
Possibly you could hide the information of an Iframe using PHP or something I really didn't view source I just assumed it was an iframe otherwise I would not be asking the question lol but thank you for the response.
