Namecheap.com is my dynamic dns service provider.

I do not see namecheap.com in the drop down list in the router.

What should I do?

#1 Download a DDNS Client your computer that is behind your router.

I found

http://www.sitelutions.com/help/dynamic_dns_clients

that provides a list of some of the DDNS Clients that can downloaded to a computer.

#2 As need be, install the DDNS Client on your computer that is behind your router.

#3 Configure the DDNS Client on your computer that is behind your router.

I want to see configuration on the router's side rather than Windows's.

The Actiontec doesn't support namecheap.com. 

So you have three choices as I see it:

1)  Go with a dynamic DNS provider that is supported on the router

2)  Run a updater on Windows. 

3)  Replace the router with one that supports namecheap.com
