Hello, I have a Flint router set up at my home, and I am currently in another country using a Beryl router to tunnel into my home internet via Flint. This setup has worked flawlessly for months, but suddenly, today, I started receiving a 'DDNS name does not resolve' error. I’ve included the logs below. Could someone please assist me urgently? I rely on this setup for remote work. Thank you!

There's nothing stopping you from setting up a second DDNS provider and having two different domain names for your routers. Just Google
ddns service providers
for a list of options. I use
FreeDNS
because they have a great free tier, but there are many other good free or cheap DDNS providers.
Companies that focus on providing DDNS usually have good redundancy in their server configurations. GL iNet is a router company that gives away DDNS services for free. However, based on past forum posts, they seem to have more downtime than companies dedicated to this service. I do not use GL iNet DDNS as my primary DDNS service.
Thank you for the suggestion! Unfortunately, I’m unable to access the Flint router remotely at the moment since I’m on a different continent, and there’s no one at home. I’m currently using my ISP’s public IP to establish a tunnel. I’m unsure if the DDNS provided by GL.iNet will resolve the issue on its own.

I'm not able to find the VPN IP. None of the below work.

Have you registered it with GoodCloud?
If you registered it and enabled remote configuration, you can access the remote GUI from there.
Or if you are configuring the VPN manually, you can access the GUI through the VPN IP address.
gutobueno:
Try disabling the IPv6. For some reson the DDNS domain will prefer ipv6 if is enabled on the server and client only work with ipv4.
It's funny you mention this because that's the conclusion I also came to today as well as my own post:
