Hi there! It seems you're trying to locate port forwarding configurations on your router but aren't getting the guidance you need. Software version 11.0.5.51(H140SP2C418) is a bit outdated, so checking official documentation or contacting support might help. Let me know if you'd like further assistance!

I lack knowledge about 5G routers, though a few devices don’t offer any personal settings.

These links usually operate under CGNAT rules and cannot handle any incoming traffic.

Join the discussions! If Kilrah is right, contact your service provider to check for a static IP. If available, consider using a separate router alongside it.

I worked with an LMT and MikroTik team from my country, and we were able to route traffic. This isn’t an issue with the ISP.

If the ISP uses CGNAT, port forwarding becomes unreliable since you remain within another NAT layer.

Check the provider, your ISP. If you search for your WAN IP and see it falls within the 100.64.0.0 to 100.127.255 range, then you're likely using CGNAT.

The information isn't available on their website, but here it is.

You're stuck with CG-NAT, so port forwarding won't work.

I wonder if devices can be accessed directly via IPv6 without needing port forwarding. Most routers seem to prevent straight incoming connections on IPv6, though there might be a toggle to adjust. This issue popped up with my Xbox even when using pfSense. On the CPE Pro 2 the relevant options are under Advanced, Security, and I assume the Pro 3 will have the same unless firmware settings change. I notice Firewall, MAC Address Filter, IP Filter, Virtual Server (Port Forwarding), Special Applications (Port Triggering), DMZ Settings, SIP ALG Settings, uPnP Settings (Automatic port forwarding/triggering), NAT Settings and Domain Filter. Likely the IP Filter is what lets you allow certain ports to reach IPv6 addresses. It functions similarly to port forwarding but doesn’t actually redirect traffic—it just permits normal routing of that port as an IPv6 public address. Of course, this isn’t ideal if your plan is limited to IPv4.
