DDNS hammering NOIP - Hub 2

Just been looking through the log on the PN Hub 2 and I have set it up to use NOIP for quality monitoring on thinkbroadband.com and I see that it is updating NOIP every 5 minutes. Is this a bug in the firmware? Where to report?

According to Google -

The No-IP Dynamic Update Client (DUC) checks for your IP address changes every five minutes by default, but this interval can be configured in the client's options, though it cannot be set to an interval shorter than five minutes. If your IP address changes, the DUC will automatically update your hostname with No-IP.com's servers to reflect the new address.

Thanks for that. I should have googled first. Just seems a tad unnecessary given my IP isn't changing. Still as long as NOIP expects traffic every 5 minutes it's not a problem.
