Home Internet - Port Forwarding not working
I received and configured my LTE Gateway, TM-RTL0102 about a week ago. It works almost perfectly. Speeds are solid, both up and down. Only problem is that port forwarding isn't working. I've got ...
Sorry it is still not working for you 😥 If you have a moment, this is the direct number to our Home internet support team 1-844-275-9310. Please give them a call when you have a moment and we can see if there is some advance troubleshooting that can be done.
For those that got this working? My biggest question is that since there is no normal "public ip address - ipv4". The wan ip address you are getting for your router is not the public ip address. The wan ip address is a private T-Mobile ip address which I believe all of the LTE suppliers are doing (T-Mobile, AT&T, Verizon etc). Unless you are getting a TRUE Public IPV6 ip address and getting that to work I don't see how you are getting it to work.
Someone ask about Synology Quick Connect. I believe that the Synology Router and/or NAS are creating a tunnel between you local device in the Synology QC servers so when you go to the QC Servers it already has a private tunnel setup. But this is why you can do anything else with the QC URL like VPN / FTP / WEB/ etc. because you do not have a real ip address.
I think I will review IPV6 options but really hope they (all LTE providers) get this resolved soon for Home Internet Use. I understand not for phones but for home internet this is needed.
This may be called CGNAT or Carrier Grade NAT where there is multiple NAT’s between the public internet and you home router.
