My ISP provides me with a CGN IPv4 address. I have no ability to access any self-hosted services, unless I pay them money for a static globally routable address, or pay some other company to provide this through some other means (e.g. VPN, VPS, etc)
If they supported IPv6, and gave me a globally routable address that was unfiltered except at my gateway, I'd be happier.
- iicc 7y agoThere's the Hurricane Electric IPv6 Tunnel Broker: https://tunnelbroker.net/ https://tunnelbroker.net/ >Our free tunnel broker service enables you to reach the IPv6 Internet by tunneling over existing IPv4 connections from your IPv6 enabled host or router to one of our IPv6 routers. (It's still obviously less direct, and inferior to your ISP supplying native IPv6, but it may improve your situation.)
- ecksii 7y agoThat solution requires a routable, Non-RFC1918, IPv4 address somewhere to work. If I understand CG-NAT correctly, you don't get a routable address on your equipment.
