That's a different approach. It's wake on wan. Basically you just need to do NAT/portforward. E.g. send magic packet to port 53434 and forward that to port 7/9 for the ip. The asked for script listens for specific traffic on the port plex is running.

Always on & power friendly & online for direct steam. Edit: Not that i would do it.

Maybe a static ARP? https://www.snbforums.com/threads/wol-with-asuswrt-merlin.19407/

@vienna0001 This script retrieves your ip from an exernal service, so it should not be a problem, and, yes, if you have a double nat situation this might help.

@chncar and @joe scian Thank you very much for the feedback. I agree that the handling of failtures definitely can be improved. I'm just not sure it's worth the extra effort if rmerlin pushes a way to handle it with the firmware. Seems like people are more interested in that based on the last...

I only know what is stated by rmerlin: "I need people to test a new version of ez-ipupdate that now supports HTTPS for updating your DDNS service (previously ez-ipupdate only supported HTTP - that's right, zero encryption...)" You'll have to wait unfortunately. Amazon+noip is https.

New version: https://pastebin.com/P18y0nS7 (will upload to github once asuswrt has been verified) @Grisu: Added amazon as default ip lookup provider - i expect them to follow the law :) In any case. You can enter whomever you like. No default backup procider though. @chncar: Please try this...

Oh, yes.. That seems very easy to implement.

Sounds like they do the same, but this script uses noip.me for DNS provider not the asus one.

Sure valid point. And, no - they have not been vetted. GDPR has recently approved and gone live - way later than the original script was written. You're welcome to use your own source to look up the ip if you have a more "trusted one", or if you can suggest me one. Then I can update the script...

Try and read the wiki again. While Asuswrt-Merlin only adds a limited number of new features over the original firmware, a lot of customizations can be achieved through the use of user scripts. These will allow you to set up custom firewall rules, create jobs that can be run at scheduled...

NOTE: To reduce confusion following the version bump to 384, the current Github repository was renamed from asuswrt-merlin.382 to asuswrt-merlin.ng (for New Generation). It's recommended that you update your local repository if you're a...

Hello, I have not been able to find any example/documentation of that... @RMerlin Do you know if asus ddns service can be accessed through an api?

You're not completely right. The script saves your external ip and checks your current external ip against it. If the current external ip differs, a request to no-ip will be made. And only then. It is generally bad to send a request to a website when it can be handled locally in the script...

Hi ngnoPQ, Well. Basically you ignore the saved ip, meaning that you will send an update request each time the script executes to noip.com. Your ISP provides a carrier grade nat, which is why it looks up your external ip.
