So when i install that client i only need to open the appropriate port and my ip is updated every minute. Your DNS service might (and probably does) have such a script to do this. Why not run it every x minute(s) instead of only when the ip changes? It doesn't take a lot of bandwidth or cpu time to do so. You can probably make a cron job out of it too.
