    Hi Howard

    There are many ways to have your router update the noip service.   If you Apple Router does not have it built in, sometimes in a tab called DynDNS then you have a few options.

    Replace the Apple Router - personally, I find that are just 'ok' and I are designed so you can't play with many settings.  They may not be very good at handling buffer bloat, but it has been a while since I tested them.

    The other option is to have some device on your network that is running 7x24 that can also update your NoIp service with your current WAN address.

    It sounds a bit complicated, but it is only a few steps.    There are many client programs that run on Windows, Linux, Raspberry Pi's, etc.  They all do the same job very well.  It depends which NoIp service you use as there are many.  I use DynDNS but I don't think it is free anymore.  I paid for it when they started up and they have been really good.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
