If you know of a supported client that is not listed here and have a moment, please drop me a note. dnsadmin@afraid.org so that I may add a link to it, thanks!
| Router clients | | DD-WRT | | Client Requirement: Linksys WRT54G | Linksys firmware mod for the ever popular WRT54G and many many others, supports afraid.org natively.
IMPORTANT: This client works excellent! Though it is not obvious at first glance, but you must include your freedns.afraid.org update URL token in the "hostname" field. Please read DD-WRT with FreeDNS.afraid.org for setup notes. If you change your password, or delete/re-add your record, you will need to update your token within DD-WRT.

Written by: Lewis Baughman | | | | Gargoyle | Gargoyle Router firmware (www.gargoyle-router.com), is an open-source router firmware similar to DD-WRT. As of the latest release, 1.0.3. Gargoyle includes an update client for freedns.afraid.org.
Unlike many implementations Gargoyle supports SHA1 hashing of username/password, so the client can fetch the needed update url dynamically (users need not supply the key needed to do the update).

Written by: Oscar de los Santos | | | | Dynamic DNS for FreeDNS | | Client Requirement: .NET 2.0 | This program is specifically designed to do dynamic dns updates for domains at FreeDNS (http://freedns.afraid.org). You only need to enter your username and password to start the updates. The update interval sets the amount of time between updates.
