LM1200 Bridge mode not working
I just got my new LM1200 LTE modem and a T-mobile data sim card. The modem updated to new firmware without asking and now it doesn't work right. According to its web interface, it is in BRIDGE mode...
Most of carriers don't support remote access to your network behind the LM200. This is not the issue of LM1200. Some carriers provide the special plan with VPN support that allows user to remote access the local network.
Thanks

On re-evaluation, you might be right. The modem reports the same IP address coming from tmobile that the router has. This is what one would expect in bridge mode. The public ip from whatsmyip.com, is not shown anywhere on the router which says that it might not have it.
The sim card seems to be accessing the internet via a NAT, so the IP address that modem gets is a natted IP address. I will contact tmobile to see if they can supply me with a static ipv6 address. This whole thing is going to be useless to me if I can't get incomming connections to work. That is the reason I bought it.
