what are the benefits by Public IP compared to Private IP?
1) Able to do port forwarding on your router. Useful for torrenting, self-hosting, remote control of cctv(pls note many cctv nowadays don't require public IP anymore)
2) A LITTLE less likely to run into captcha (your mileage may vary)
3) If u unable to access a service/website due to error "This IP is banned" , u can disconnect & reconnect Unifi to get another public IP , which may or may not resolve the issue. If unlucky they may have banned an entire IP range.
4) Possibly slightly better latency. Maybe gamers can benefit a little.
Most people would not need the benefits above.
