Hello JJ~ Is me! The one you help me to fix my fiber optic issue in Penang.

Damn, I self host a cloud and suddenly the public IP failed to work this morning.
And ngam ngam you guys talked about this few days back.

You mean I just make a call to Times and tell them don't CGNAT my IP because I need it for my home server is it?

You have to call CS
technically it would be possible to do it yourself if you had the root/technican password, but seems like they're not allowed to reveal it and so far it hasnt leaked out yet

Look into this thread
https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4925452

Pretty technical though

1Gig port, its kinda expeceted to not see 1000Mbps
rougly 940Mbps is the max for gigabit ethernet

alright, then i will give cs a call thanks.

Hi, just call the CS & request them to switch to Public IP as you have some apps need public IP to work

Thanks.

Hmm... I am not sure if I know I am in public IP or not.
Because I can't connect to the ddns I generate. If I use VPN, then I can connect to the ddns.
Without VPN, seems all the port is blocked. 80, 8080, 21, 22, etc. Not sure why.

I just call and tell them "Please switch to Public IP" that's all?
Do you know a way how to check if current is Public IP or not?

Below are the tutorial I found, I wonder if this is a good way to tell I am in Public IP or not.

pm me yr IP to check

Very simple way to check if you are on public IP or not.

Login to your router. Take note of WAN IP address:


Then go and google : What is my IP


If both of these IPs match, congrats you are on Public IP.

Cannot. Must call CS. Took less than 10 minutes for me and no additional charges

Ya, I checked, It is public IP.
I can't ping that public IP outside the network.
Not sure why. It was ok pass few days.
Looks like it is blocked by the CGNAT.

Haiz...

Oh that is strange. My monitoring system still able to ping my network just fine.

Guys do I need to change my Asus 86U for 500Mbps speed pls advice..

You have a very good router Asus 86U.
For me, with a 1Gbps line, I am still using the lesser model Asus 66U B1 version as the heat generated is manageable.

Using Ethernet, DL929, UL944.
Using Wifi, DL606, UL627.

I did try an Asus 55AX, I remember the figures are about the same. So, I just use the 55AX as an AiMesh node instead.

Some say ASUS 86U is not good enough for TIME 500Mbps u need ASUS AX 11000 to fully utilized 500Mbps speed ..

My house PC can ping my office public IP
My office PC cannot ping my house public IP.
Both I use https://whatismyipaddress.com/ to get the public IP.

Sad man, I thought I finally can utilize my dust-collecting-PC in my house as a cloud server.
I was working fine last week. FTP, SSH, Nextcloud.

But... Really sad.

Just out of curiosity, you mentioned ping your house public IP. Not sure if your router has this setting enabled or not?



Usually I will never leave this setting enabled. I only enable when troubleshooting network issue.

Alternatively you can go with ZeroTier for remote access needs. For my network I use both OpenVPN and ZeroTier. Never exposed my devices directly to the internet for security reasons.

Hopefully TIME manages to resolve your issue.

Finally done with 500mbps installation.

Got the huawei wifi 6 x 2. And it did help with my apartment dead spot behind 2 walls. Still can enjoy speed 200~300mbps at previously inaccessible spot.

Huawei router provided is crap router.

According to installer is better than Asus 86U..

Yours is the Asus RT-AC86U or Asus RT-AX86U?

RT-86U
