Amcrest ddns, won't save random name

Post by fgoh »

Everything was working fine until I did a reset of my IP2M-841. Followed initial Setup instructions, no problems, liveview working. But now cannot config the ddns. Followed the steps in the manual--(1) "connection" menu to set a new port nbr; (2) ddns menu to enable & set random name for amcrestddns; (3) enabled & modified uPnP with port nbr from (2); (4) saved everything (5) port forwarding on router. Problem I'm having is step (2): no matter what random name I type in for the ddns it won't save, it keeps reverting to the default "none" as in "none.amcrestddns.com". Any idea what's going on? Forum search didn't find anyone listing similar problem.
Thanks.
