Dynamic dns - configuration issue

Hi,
i installed plugin for Dynamic dns and tried to set it up using dynu.com ... the router i am setting things on is behind NAT, ie its wan has local ip. All the pc's even openwrt router while communicating with internet have public ip which is set based on the router that is connected to internet and is "parent" to the openwrt router.

I wanted to send updates to dynu once my public IP got changed.

Logs;

You should not supply your public IP in the update since you don't have one on this router.
Check https://www.dynu.com/DynamicDNS/IP-Update-Protocol

IP ADDRESS Optional. IPv4 address to be used for update. This field is OPTIONAL. If IP addrss is not sent as part of the request, the API server will use the IP address from which the request originates. The special IP address 10.0.0.0 is replaced with the IP address from which the request originates and you may use it with routers which disallow empty IP address field .

As it was discovered in another thread, one more change is required on Advanced page:
IP address source [IPv4] URL
URL to detect [IPv4] will be autopopulated with http://checkip.dyndns.com
