Why do I suddenly have a proxy.maud.bt.com request causing my dynamic dns logins to fail

@Buckskin a good question, alas I am sure you will get the answer on here. Have you spoken to Customer Support?
Which router and broadband service do you have?
Just wondering if the router has had a recent firmware update?

Spoken to customer support: No, not had much luck previously
Router: EE Smarthub Plus (a misnomer if ever I saw one) standard EE broadband (not full fibre)
Not aware of any firmware update. Current version is r3.8.11-R-1414606-PROD-83002

That is latest f/ware for SH+.
Other than DDNS is everything else working at expected speeds?

Yes, everything else seems to be OK. Naff wifi but that's always been the case.

Only thing I can think of to contribute is that "maud" may relate to MAUD - Multicast-Assisted Unicast Delivery.
Found an article on it here, no idea how that is actually integrated into the network or if it is at all relevant to what you're seeing: https://newsroom.bt.com/bt-group-and-edgio-announce-worlds-first-maud-enabled-content-delivery-netwo...
A thread on the BT Community also which makes mention of this: https://community.bt.com/t5/BT-Fibre-broadband/proxy-maud-bt-com/td-p/2436378

Yes I read the tread as it was the only mention of the certificate I could find and the guy had the same issue I have. However, there was no resolution so the problem is still outstanding.
As to MAUD I do not steam on my PC so I have no idea why it would come anywhere near me.
