Airport update DNS itself

Question

Airport update DNS itself

I would like to know how I can configure my airport express for it updates the DNS of the net itself without one computer running 24/7.

I did this the following configuration: Domain Name: franciscobsousa.dyndns.org( I have a DNS bought)

Username: francisco

Password: (Your Dyn password) in the internet option at my airport, but when the DNS changes, the airport doesn't update itself the DSN and I cant access my camera outside.

Unfortunately, the AirPort base stations do NOT support DDNS therefore there is no setting on the AirPort to automatically update DynDNS or any other DDNS service with the updated public IP address of your network.

Are there another router of the Apple which support DDNS?

Sorry, but no. None of the Apple routers, AirPort Extreme, AirPort Express, or the Time Capsule support DDNS. If you use one of these routers you will still require a DDNS client on at least one of your computers on your local network to update your DDNS service.
