I have like 3 spare laptops, and another spare computer. I’m not running anything right now because this router doesn’t support port forwarding no matter what I try (it’s a firmware issue apparently), but they’re always there for me when I need them.
I’m really poor and hate paying for things monthly. I had been asking my friends though if I could use their networks through tunnels, but no one was able to understand what I meant enough to be able to help. They would have to know how to set up SSH.
That’s the whole thing. I was on CGNAT, and decided to pay $10 monthly to fix it and get a public ip. But NOW I find out the fucking router doesn’t even work. It’s apparently this exact model that has the issue. And only this one. I don’t know if I could replace the firmware.

Like the other guy suggested, you could use tailscale so you don’t need port forwarding. It’s what I’m currently using as well
You could maybe rent a cheap VPS and use that as a reverse proxy. Using Tailscale to create a VPN tunnel so you don’t need port forwarding

Any way to use other firmware? My shitty ISP is giving private IP address, so I just use tailscale instead.
