I just noticed something when looking at the system logs. The watchdog for DDNS is saying "watchdog: DDNS hostname does not match current IP - launching DDNS update" every single time its set to run. I have it check every 60 min.

Now my IP can bounce a little but usually only after a full router reboot. But here, at least according to the watchdog, its changing every hour. Any idea why this might be?

EDIT: Forget it. I'm a dumb dumb.

Forgot I set the DDNS name to point to my routers internal IP in dnsmasq for... well... for the life of me I do not remember why I did that now. That was probably the reason it never matched. Will find out in ~35 min.
