Wrong Address

I setup free dynamic dns on zoneedit and configured my router as client. zoneedit shows the correct public IP now. But when I ping my hostname, it goes to a different address. In fact, the address it goes to keeps changing even though my IP hasn't changed, nor has the IP associated with my hostname in zoneedit changed.

It was todtena@hockey.com. I got a reply from support saying "The host name you have added to ZoneEdit is not delegated to ZoneEdit name servers." I deleted it and tried to add todtena.zonedit.com, but I can't seem to figure out how. Upon initial signup, hockey.com was one of the free domains offered but the setup process seems to be different for an existing account than a new one. I can try deleting my account and starting from scratch if I don't hear back.

hi there

zoneedit does not offer any free domain names to use. perhaps you have another ddns provider in mind and not zoneedit?

thanks

with zoneedit yes. You need your own domain name to use any zoneedit service.
