I'm in a bit of a pickle atm trying to configure a backup 4G connection for business use. The internet connection is UP but I'm not able to get IPSEC to connect. I have a very strong feeling it's due to 2degrees.

The IPSEC tunnel comes up over UFB but not over 2Degrees so it must be some firewalling or CGNAT witchdoctory that's causing it.

Does 2degrees have multiple APNs for those of us that want publically routed IPs with no firewalling?

Answered my own question. The answer is to use the "direct" for the APN. This gave me a publically routeable IP that was responding to pings etc;

Interestingly, 3 different people that I spoke to at 2degrees had no idea what I was talking about.
