Have you tried using PCP to forward the port? I was under the (maybe-incorrect, and if so I would really like to learn) impression that most major CG-NAT setups supported it.





Nah, many carriers don’t support it. I’ve always had to resort to STUN

STUN also isn’t guaranteed if the router is strict. IPv6 removes a lot of these unknown and strange ways that IPv4 infrastructure can break things.

PCP is not widely deployed in South East Asia at the very least. Relying on it is not feasible.

I suppose I can try that some time. I can find absolutely zero mentions of that for the ISP, just the option of buying a static IP.
