Dynamic DNS services? Thoughts?

I am looking over these two service providers below. This is to get the
website working from my server, instead of from another Webhosting provider.
I am looking at cost and services.



I need an objective review that might catch what I am missing.

TZO is what we have right now and it is not working the way I want it to.
It may be setup, but I am not really sure. I am also thinking that we have
been paying more than we should be for the TZO level of service.



The only reason we went with TZO to begin with was that the info came with
our router.



Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks

Very good, I use their secondary DNS services and they are all solid,
and the router I have supports all their services, including Custom
DNS, where you use your own domain. The update protocol is also well
known, and thus is supported by a lot of equipment/software. In the
occasion where I needed to know a bind configuration that they were
using, the support was very prompt, to the point and accurate.

I also use their MX backer which is a no fuss server for use with
secondary MX.

I've been using dyndns.org for years. For dynamic DNS, backup MX, DNS
hosting, etc.
They're great & have never caused me a problem. I do recommend you sign up
for paid dynamic DNS (it's like $20/yr) so you don't get your hosts
accidentally deleted if your server fails to update them within X days. It's
worth it.

Haven't used anyone else but I know people who like www.no-ip.com . For me,
dyndns is it.
