This is what I use in ddclient.conf - it says to get the information 
from IP address 192.168.0.1 and to skip everything on the web page 
until it sees IP Address. The look for the IP address after that. 
This is for a Speedstream modem. For your router, you need to find 
what address URL you need to get the status page that shows your IP 
address. For example, you might need something like:

fw-login=admin, fw-password=cersi40, fw=192.168.1.1, fw-skip='IP 
Address'

Your config file has more then one config line, and is looking for 
the router on 172.16.0.1. I do not think that is the local IP 
address of your router. If you give us the URL for the status page 
of the router, and attach a text file created by using "save as 
text", we should be able to generate a proper config line for you.
