rv320: DynDNS "Updater Client Key's" cannot be used / password field is limited in length

I am not able to use DynDNS Feature called "Updater Client Key's" within my rv320 !

Updater Client Key's can be used instead of the account password.

The problem is, the password-field from the rv320 DynDNS setup page is limited in length.

The Client keys are of a certain length, that cannot be entered.

cmon cisco, that issue is very easy to solve,

since dyndns is about the only real option on rv320,

I expect cisco to look into this.

I want to use that new / more secure Updater Key concept.

Last night I've run into the same problem as you, after "upgrading" my old Dyn account to use "Updater Client Key" because it seemed a good idea to separate access account pass from more widely used updater key BUT THERE IS NO WAY BACK!

And... surprise! The web management page of my Comtrend router only accept keys up to 16 characters length, far less than needed for Dyn key.

This is the work around that solved my problem:

1) Insert the data of the Dyn updater key in the router as "XXXXXXXX"

2) Save/export the router config data using the router web page. It is a text file.

3) Edit the config file looking for "XXXXXXXX" and replacing it with the real Dyn updater key.

4) Save the modified file

5) Import the modified config file into the router using the router web page and reboot router.

I wish you the same luck as me.
