Re: When can I JUST use TM internet modem as ONLY a modem, in BRIDGE mode, with NO NAT, NO firewall, and frankly NO Wifi.
I just ordered the 5G home Internet hoping I too would be able to dump Spectrum. From the great information above, particularly regarding carrier grade NAT, I see I would have to totally revamp how I think about "internet facing" when it comes to my Pfsense WAN interface. I've depended on having a public IP on that box for IPSec purposes as well as some port forwarding. This will be a long andtricky road to finding ways that I cansatisfy all my needs around this new architecture. This isespecially the case since we (the customer) haveno power in the upper layers. I hate working on my home internet because of this. Once you've been spoiled in the professional networking world where youcan control everything from the public facing BGP routes of a companyto a local workstation'sRFC1918 address, it sucks to get stuckback into the "consumer" box.It sure would be nice tohave that kind of power with my own home internet! I guess we're just going to have to collect our knowledge and work together to find new ways of accomplishing our goals within the bounds of new carrier tech which we cannot control.😔5Visto1like0Comentarios
