Port forwarding in windows
The liquid was close to your networking gear because it likely accumulated in the area due to poor drainage or water damage.
Setting up your internet connection required entering a static IP, not the public one. This suggests you're connected to a local network managed by your service provider.
I don't feel the need to discuss those topics further. I understand NAT64-CGN is often used in such setups. It's likely the router is connected to the ISP network, which explains why port forwarding isn't possible there.
I unintentionally spilled water on the glass. The router was lying there. Everything else is fine.
Only if your configured IP is within the Class A/B/C categories does it qualify as a public IP.
It seems like there might be a chance to fix it because of its low voltage. You'll need to open it up and let it dry out.
I tried but nothing happened. I believe it was because I didn't switch off the router until it stopped functioning. (That's how I discovered it.)
Did your router belong to you or was it supplied by your internet service provider? If your ISP is deemed vital, they could swap it out even during quarantine.
