Home Internet Port Forwarding working in 2021?
I see a couple threads talking about port forwarding not working and I still can’t seem to get mine working. Is anyone having any success with new hardware or contacting support?
I just got a 4G modem with a hotspot sim. It worked great at first, but then I figured out that nothing could connect back in. I’ve read some of the posts above and it looks like some people have gotten around the problem with VPN. I understand that the IPv4 addresses are scarce and this is behind an IPv4 NAT, so we never get to see the real IP address.
I was wondering if they could just assign everybody a static IPv6 address. There is no shortage of those. I think I could probably work with that.
I got this as a replacement for cable. So its starting to look like I’ll have to call the cable guy up and apologize for all the nasty names I called him.
