Solved this issue by writing a script that fetches the page from my router where the ip is stored and then finds the correct ip and sends that ip back to ddts.net The script is probably not that clever and can probably be written a lot smaller, but hey, it works for me ==== snip ==== #!/bin/bash wget --http-user=blabla --http-passwd=blabla http://192.168.0.35/service.html egrep -E "[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}" service.html | sed 's/^[ \t]*//g' > ip awk '{if ( NR == 3 ) print $0;}' < ip > ip.txt ddtc --online=`cat ip.txt` rm st_devic.html rm ip rm ip.txt ==== snip ==== >> >> 3.
