You need to check if your ip is exposed outside the isp network, i know you need to request dialog to do so and is not done by default, this might be the case with SLT as well. This is known as the NAT configuration. once this is done you can setup port forwarding with your router. You will need a home broadband connection and will not work on a regular mobile connectionYou don't need a static ip but your ip will be dynamic. to get around that you can use a service like https://www.noip.com/. most routers support it.This only applies if you are trying to access your server outside of your home network. If you are accessing it from inside your home, you need to open the ports on your DB server for incoming traffic
the first thing you need to do is get a public facing IP by contacting your isp. Did you try that?
No you keep missing my point, the ip that is assigned to you is not exposed outside of the isp network, thats the issueyou can verify this by going to a site like whatsmyip, compare that ip to the wan ip that is assigned to your router (this is available in your router system info view). if they are different nothing you try will work.Of course, buying a static IP will work. but you can get your isp to assign a public facing dynamic ip to you as well free of charge. And you HAVE to call your isp to do this. you can't do this by yourself
Hello. Sry to dig out an old thread (Not that old though). I'm trying to port forward to my PS4 and I'm using Dialog Broadband which by default have disabled the necessary ports. So after seeing your post I'd like to ask, Do I need to buy a Static IP to port forward OR can I get a Public Dynamic IP for free and used a DDNS to port forward?Thank You
I sent an email to dialog and they said what I'm saying is not clear. Can you send me a text version of what you asked from SL? Plz
When I said the same thing they couldn't understand what I was saying. Is the dialog tech consist of all monkeys or something???
