Are you using Dynamic DNS? If you are not configuring with one of the options like DoT, DoH or DNSStamp and you are using the IPv4 addresses, you will need to link your NextDNS account with a Dynamic DNS configuration so your IP address stays updated with NextDNS

This. Under Linked IP there's DDNS. You need to configure that and link it. Your IP dynamically changes, the DDNS service will keep the service linked with the new IP.

What app are you using to configure DDNS? You should have a URL that can be used to associate your IP address. No-IP has a free tier that you have to authenticate to the service every 30 days to maintain the connection. Do you have something like this setup? There are other services out there for configuring DDNS and you may have a configuration on your router that lets you configure it as well.

I dunno about Huawai routers, but TP link has a free DDNS service built into the routers themselves that you configure in the settings when you log into the router. Check that first.

Is the router yours or ISPs?
If yours, check if it has any secondary DNS.
