Hey sorry if this is the wrong forum - I wasn't sure it would be an ISP issue so I didn't post in the My Republic forums.

 

So, some background. I had everything working perfect until we moved addresses - however literally all I did was move my server cupboard to a new house and plug my AMPLIFI into the Huawei ONT here. Inside of my network everything worked seamlessly when we moved but I've lost outside access.

 

 

 

My setup is My Republic with a static IP (I pay for) into the AMPLIFI to my server which is connected via ethernet on a static IP.

 

I have the ports forwarded via the AMPLIFI config and the same port as my "Manually specify public port" in Plex setup.

 

 

 

Edit - so the error I'm seeing in Plex is:

 

Your server is signed in to Plex, but is not reachable from outside your network. Learn more Tip: It looks like your server may be connected to the internet through multiple routers or other network devices. Try connecting it directly to your primary device, or visit our support site for more information about troubleshooting this "Double-NAT" scenario. Learn more

 

 

 

I can see my static IP using the various online checks and Plex shows the correct IP address as my public address.

 

 

 

I've tried -

 

  • changing the port on everything
  • Disabling the firewall in Windows 
  • Got a friend to try from their home
  • Updating router firmware / resetting etc
  • Contacted My Republic to confirm I'm on static IP
  • Using "Can You See Me" the port check results in a time out

 

 

The only odd thing I have noticed (and I'm not sure if this was the same before we moved - because it worked I never checked). My IP address under the 'Internet Tab' in the AMPLIFI config is different from my static IP.

 

I assume this is correct and My Republic would forward all the traffic from my static IP to my "WAN IP" for the lack of a better understanding?

 

 

 

Any ideas? My wife is away at the moment and not pleased she can't watch her TV shows :(

Have you confirmed a firewall hasn't reactivated?

I've turned off the Windows 10 firewall just in case that might have changed (Previously it was On).

 

I don't have any antivirus software or anything installed. Are there any other firewall settings I need to check?

 

Thanks

Check your ports are forwarded to the correct local ip.

These are my settings - I haven't changed anything so I don't think that would be an issue?

I've restarted both the router and the server... factory resetting was something I was hoping to avoid since it will mean reconnecting all the WiFi devices we have around the house - but I think that's probably the only thing I haven't tried yet.....

@Shapenz Just verified by the IP address of your posts - you're on CGNAT again:

 

netname: CGNAT_PURE_MYR_NZ
descr: CGNAT Pure Bundle MyRepublic NZ

 

Best get in touch with MyRepublic or better yet - swap to a better ISP ;)

Is that covered IP a 100.6x.x.x ip by any chance? as 100.64.0.0/10 is the ip range that ISP's *shoud* use for CGNAT allocation.

@michaelmurfy thanks - that explains it. To be honest I've never had a problem with MR but if they can't sort this I'll certainly be in the market for something new... I hear @hio77 has a good deal with a free Sony TV going on........ cool (Too soon?)

 

 

 

@noroad address is 101.100 so I think they've setup the static IP correctly but by using CGNAT they've basically rendered it useless to me...

Go to https://ipchicken.com and see if the external ip on your router matches, that will tell you definitively. If MR is using a 101.100 address for cgnat, well, that would be very bad. please post the results back here as I can let the right people at MR know.

By the way, its pretty easy to make a mistake and have the public ip natted on the BNG, its just a matter of missing out a block you have allocated for statics on the appropriate prefix list.

OK, well there is no CGNAT involved then.
