OpenDNS not working correctly / OpenDNS Updater v2.2.1 no internet
Good evening,
I've just set up OpenDNS in my router and created my own network settings (Low Profile) so it should also block adult sites.
When I tested it after a pc and router restart it worked and the http://www.exampleadultsite.com/ also was blocked. However now after 1 hour of using my PC it stopped working. OpenDNS still seems to work since the https://welcome.opendns.com/ shows the checkmark. Also www.internetbadguys.com gets blocked.
I noticed that the OpenDNS Updater seems to get no internet connection even though my internet is working.
There are also no settings checked in OpenDNS Updater.
I also created rules in the firewall to let OpenDNS pass.
I do not use a VPN.
Here is my output of nslookup -type=txt debug.opendns.com:
Server: fritz.box
Address: fd00::f2b0:14ff:fe12:6107

I took those commands out of another thread which couldn't help with my problem.
If there is more information needed please tell me.
Thank you

Thank you. For now it is working.
I have tried setting up my router with no-ip. And have added them to DNS-O-Matic.My router still hasn't updated no-ip but I will wait until tomorrow maybe that just happens when the ip is getting changed. But do i still need an updating software for DNS-O-Matic or is it enough when my server sends the new IP to no-ip and then it will automatically update my OpenDNS-Home-Network IP?

And when I need an updating software for dns-o-matic is there a recommendation? The website for Marcs Updater which I found seems to be down.

The DDNS function of your router is the updating software against DNS-O-Matic. Nothing else is needed.
The parameters are:
Service: user defined
Update URL: https://updates.dnsomatic.com/nic/update?myip=<ipaddr>
Domain name: your no-ip hostname
Username and PW: from DNS-O-Matic -
That didn't work for me. I searched around and now my settings in the Fritz Box are:
Service: user defined
Update URL: updates.dnsomatic.com/nic/update?myip=<ipaddr>
Domain name: all.dnsomatic.com
Username and PW: from DNS-O-MaticBut that also didn't work and maybe it is because of my password. I tried different once but they all need special character and I do not know which one are reserved by HTML.

So I changed the password, but it seems to still not update.
Service: user defined
Update URL: updates.dnsomatic.com/nic/update?myip=<ipaddr>
Domain name: my no-ip hostname
Username and PW: from DNS-O-MaticAt No-Ip I get the messag to configure my host address and choose my router and a software?
When I try the OpenDNS Updater now that at least works so I can refresh the IP when I started my PC but having it done automatically by the router would be the best of course.
