Strict NAT type

joshwiseman · ‎01-10-2024

I'm a mobile broadband customer and use my connection for gaming. It seems like recently O2 changed their network to use a strict NAT type which is severely limiting my ability to game. The main reason I went with O2 to begin with because of the open NAT type they offered and I'm not sure why this has changed recently.

How do you mean a Strict NAT Type??, as o2 have been using CGNAT for a good few years now, and have never had a fully open Network Topology, in as much as everyone gets a Public IP ..
