The modem/router also handles port forwarding which has been pretty common on all the modem/routers I’ve used in the past. Didn’t even register that as a concern haha.
That’s good to know the Pi can handle DynDNS as well. Would be nice to keep all that information contained to one device, simply for my sanity.

I think the package "ddclient" is the most common DynDNS client. Should be available on almost any Linux distribution and handle most providers. Take one of the ones you found. Or afraid.org , desec.io , duckdns.org
