Still the best way of doing it IMO, even if not perfect.

And, this wouldn't affect this situation, since, you're doing it with external IPs for external clients.

Don't embedded devices fix the DNS-server to a specific one? Worst case the provider fixes it to their own. That has downsides too though.
