OK will do and report back, thanks
In the blue banner at the top I am getting:
WAN IP[162] : Startup Lua Failed
In the log I see this:

I also see this line:

I just uploaded all the files again from the new Github zip file etc.
@cw-kid - It looks like a typo on line 72 removed the closing paren. Luup-External-IP/L_ExternalIP1.lua at main · nodecentral/Luup-External-IP · GitHub You could add the closing paren and try again…

Sorry about that, I think my test Vera’s got so overloaded of late with all the plugins I’ve been building, that I’m now not seeing any task/error messages via the UI…
I’ve corrected the error, and uploaded a new version to the GitHub repository

Thanks guys the plugin start up error has gone now. I can see we have a new “Poll Period” variable set to 86400 by default.
I changed this to 300 seconds aka 5 minutes. I then dropped my VPN tunnel.
Waited the 5 minutes and the Plugin device did change the current IP, to that of the ISP’s assigned IP.
So all seems to be working well !
In MSR you can then create a rule that is triggered off that IP change like this:
And make your rule Actions do whatever you like, send a notification or TTS or whatever.
plugin works fine for me. Thx
