Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/nsupdate-info/nsupdate.info/issues/300

where you have:
How to configure automated dynamic DNS updates?
under #DD-WRT
Instead of "Do not use external ip check - Yes"
Its better to use:
Use external ip check Yes/No
on the latest dd-wrt firmware thats how it is.

It gets confusing when there is yes/no and saying the exact opposite in the instructions.
Can you update that and make it:
Use external ip check No
thanks

@2SI3NX we like to tell for which versions our configurations apply.

so, for which dd-wrt version is the change you are requesting?

also, for that version, are the other instructions still correct?

@ThomasWaldmann The firmware is for the latest ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/betas/2017/

At the moment i havent seen any other instructions being different. Its only the one i mentioned which is quite vague in the instructions.

Hmm, if it is beta still, we maybe don't want to reflect changes that appeared in the beta in our docs / generated config files.

So, can you check whether the setting is also as you propose in the latest release?

Well, they say its Beta, but really if you look up one directory: ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/betas/
Those years are mostly all stable versions even though they say they are betas. They are the latest and mostly stable. If you go back again one directory and you go to stable, the latest stable is in 2008 which is unreliable.

Everyone who has dd-wrt compatible routers and wants the latest dd-wrt, they download from the beta's section.

Currently this setting im proposing is on the latest version and actually all versions in 2016 as ive been updating.
