I'm having an issue with ddclient updating my ip to the local ip of my router, 192.168.1.1. If I'm understanding correctly what I've read it should be updating to my routers broadcast ip which is something like 9*.1**.178.2** and not updating to 192.168.1.1.....

I don't know what else is needed to help me get this damn vpn working, please let me know. I've had to revert to dhcp as when I had it set up as static a lease ran out and I got all sorts of errors, I'm currently trying to fix this and get a static ip once again. my router gives an option to check a box to make the current ip static, but when the lease timer runs out it screws up. I can manually set an ip but when i try i get errors, I will be told that the ip is illegal or that it won't work with the subnet mask. my router says:
Rule Name Service Subnet Mask Dynamic IP Range Action
Network (Home/Office) DHCP Server 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.254
I don't quite understand what ips I can use outside the dhcp range I thought 192.168.2.13 would be outside the dhcp range but I get an error as it appanently is not outside that range. When I tried a different ip that is when I got the error about it not matching the subnet. If I'm not making any sense its because I'm confused as all hell and having a hard time explaining my many issues
