General DNS & Domains Dyn Email Update Clients Dyn Developer

Ok this has happened before but usually fixes itself in 10 mins now 12 hours later still not working if I use the ip address everything works fine if I use the webname its unable to connect I am thinking the problem has to be with DynDNS as nothing has change on the server in 2 weeks or something on the internet is blocking it. Any ideas would be appreciated.

P.S. I am using a linksys WRT610N with Dyndns and it says DDNS is updated successfully,Operation complete so theres no problems there either.

1 Answer:

Have you checked with nslookup yourname.example.com to see what IP your host resolves to?

The cause could be any one of a number of things, but because you've not provided your hostname or WAN IP nobody else can do any checking for you.

Ok just discovered that http://dlanson.com works http://www.dlanson.com doesn't work which is what I have always been using not sure why one works and the other doesn't

So, I'm guessing your client is updating dlanson.com? www.dlanson.com is a CNAME of dlanson.com so if there's a problem it is because of the DNS server(s) you are using.

Which I have told my service provider there is a problem but they dont see it that way. Even the college I work at some of there sites can't connect and it keeps comimg back as a dns servere issue.
