Using double NAT here because my ISP won't even support/allow putting their box in bridge mode and I don't even have root access to it, just some limited functionality via their web GUI.
I haven't had any issues with it.
Can you set the ISP box to designate your router as DMZ (de-militarized zone)? Your router needs to get a static IP from the private subnet defined by their router, then you mark that IP as DMZ in their router's settings.
It's not technically the same as bridge mode, the ISP box continues to act as a router but also exposes your router fully to the internet so you can mostly ignore theirs afterward.
Yes, that's essentially what I did.
great, thanks for your input
You're welcome, cunt
Well that was uncal- ...oh
I was like wtf. That was rude for no reason until I saw the are name.
I’m American so that’s a word you don’t use. It’s one of the few unspeakable words

That threw me for a loop!
Exact same situation, but I have had issues with the shitty ISP box resetting itself on an outage and simply not forwarding traffic from the open ports to my router with a static IP. It would just say "no" and I had to change the static IP on the ISP box and reboot everything and then it would work fine. It has been fine for 3-4 months without needing anything, but sometimes it is annoying.
I'm not sure if its applicable for you or if you are aware but duckdns really helps with this problem. I've moved three times since and have never worried about ip addresses.
I think you are referring to Public IP? The person above was talking about the static Local IP.
