Help port forwarding
Hee there. I need help. I want to connect my ps4 to the aircard 790. But i im getting NAT-type 3. To play correctly i need to have NAT-type 2. On the web they say i need to open some port in the port forwarding menu. I did this all. But stil i can get NAT-type 2. Does anyone have a idea why i m still having this problem? I have static IP en the correct port open. Thanks for the help

- Most mobile providers don't provide public IP addresses to their customers. Without a public IP address, port forwarding won't do you any good. You can try calling your provider and ask about getting one. You might have to sign up with a business account.
The other option is to use a VPN. I don't know anything about the 790 but I doubt that it has any VPN support.- Okay. Im using een mifi router. It uses 4g netwerk to conect to the web like a mobile phone. I dont know if this would get a pibluc network. I tried to make vpn network only i can figure it out. It just keeps on waiting status. I even tried to skip the router be attacing it derictly to me pc. An then with a lan kabel to the ps4 but it cant make the right bridge. I really have no more options
