Draytek Certificate Creation

Hello all!

I am using a Draytek 2960 router that has Let’s Encrypt certificate creation built into it. The user needs to register a DDNS address which I have done and is working.

The address is https://8675309routertest.drayddns.com

After the DDNS address is created and confirmed working, I go to create the certificate and am getting domain invalid errors:

Hi @BIGGREYDOG99

checking that subdomain in my browser - no answer. Checking it via https://check-your-website.server-daten.de/?q=8675309routertest.drayddns.com

The router has an ip address, that's required. But there is no answer, only timeouts.

A working port 80 / http is required if you want to create a certificate via http validation.

Is this

Host Type IP-Address is auth. ∑ Queries ∑ Timeout
8675309routertest.drayddns.com A 71.93.35.250 Atascadero/California/United States (US) - Charter Communications Hostname: 071-093-035-250.biz.spectrum.com yes 1 0
AAAA yes

a home server? If yes, check if your ISP blocks port 80.
