It was a problem roughly 2 years ago with the Askey modems that had a host of the typical router functions like DMZ, UPnP and Manual port forwarding, DHCP configuration, etc.
As of April 2nd when I went back to a wired ISP to recover full IPv4 functionality again, this had still not been addressed (was still using said Askey, so no... inbound port forwards were still not working, otherwise I would still be subscribing).
To date, the most viable workaround has basically been to use a VPN... but even that needs some specific configuration for some scenarios because you would need P2P support, as well as a reserved IP for it to work properly (which can ramp up the cost).
Do you know someplace online where this VPN approach is described? I want to try it.
¡Gracias!
