[Tutorial/Workaround] How to use Fritz!Box Wireguard with unsupported DDNS mechanisms
This assumes you have your DynDNS mechanism set up by any means other than the Fritz!Box internals (for example, I use this docker image, in combination with my cloudflare managed domain to achieve DDNS behavior). This means that the Fritz!Box needs to be reachable with the domain you intend to use for your VPN connection. For example, I use vpn...

WAN DHCP Address changing every few minutes
SOLVED: Thanks to some of the suggestions here I realized the WAN IP wasn't actually changing. The DDNS updater I use: https://github.com/qdm12/ddns-updater uses a bunch of different sources, both http and DNS to determine the current public IP. At lease one of the http sources was no longer working and I have no idea how the DNS sources are supposed to know what my current IP is, that doesn't make sense to me.

Use a dynamic DNS service like noip.com. You either use one of their domains like myusername.someDDNScompany.com or you use your own domain. Then you run software like ddns_updater on a raspberry pi or a docker container on your NAS that periodically checks and updates the DNS record with your current home IP.

DuckDNS is down... again
I treid to switch to https://github.com/pboehm/ddns, and I got everything working, except my domain was still blocked on school wifi, which was the original reason I got duckdns (Our class domain/subdomains were blocked, and duckdns wasn't.)

tool to auto-update A-records when not on a static IP?
If you don’t want to use a paid DynDNS solution, you can self host one: https://github.com/pboehm/ddns it’s a bit of a hassle to configure, especially if you try to run it behind a reverse proxy, but I think it’s worth it
