How to configure Namecheap DynDNS in Fritzbox

dyndns refresh In the previous article I have explained, how you can set up your domains, which are rented from Namecheap.com, for use with DynDNS (Dynamic DNS). In this article, we will focus on how to configure your Fritzbox, so that it always sends the current IP to the Namecheap DynDNS interface.
While this also possible through various clients for PC or MAC, I find the configuration with Fritzbox particularly attractive, because it is anyway running around the clock and thus no PC or MAC unnecessarily consumes more power.
(Who prefers a Raspberry Pi over a Fritzbox, should read this article here.)

Log into the webpanel of your Fritzbox. This should be normally accessible by navigating to http://fritz.box or http://192.168.178.1 in a browser of your choice.

Also, if I rent my webspace (and now my VPS) always from german companies, my domains are with a foreign supplier. Specifically at Namecheap.com. This has several reasons. I’ve only had good experience there, I really like their web interface, the payment by Paypal and also the support is really fast.
One of the features which suits me very well at Namecheap.com is the possibility to use DynDNS with all domains registered there. And moreover it’s free. With other providers, you pay for it often.

Visual Studio 2012 Logo When I once again recently wanted to bring a few thoughts into bits and bytes, I realized that I could not download neither updates nor Nuget packages from the Visual Studio 2012. The Visual Studio was absolutely convinced that my computer had no Internet connection. But this could not be, after all, because every other application still got connected.
So I thought about what I’ve changed in my setup in the last day and then I got an idea. For several days I surf through a proxy server. I do this from time to time and I previously never had problems using older versions of Visual Studio.
When searching for the proxy server settings in the Visual Studio 2012 itself, I was disappointed. There’s simply no options or settings dialogues for that case. So I want […]

When working with the ALV (ABAP List Viewer), the records/result-set displayed can be exported in various formats including those for spreadsheet programs.
alv_save_choice_excel_export_en If you use this feature more often and always export your data into the same format, there does exist an option called “Always Use Selected Format” in the spreadsheet-export-dialog. If you check this option after selecting an export format, so in subsequent exports always the specified format is preselected and you won’t see the format selection dialog anymore.
However, if you would like to change the format or want to get asked for he format again before every re-export, most users recognize that it isn’t such easy to revoke the “Always Use Selected Format” option.
