So I've been struggling with this problem for over a month ever since my ISP changed my Internet connection from DSL to Optic Fiber and I've been trying to look for a solution ever since. I was actually pretty happy about it at the start since its supposed to be a better connection and it all worked fine for around 2 weeks but, for some unknown reason to me, at the end of week 2 my NAT Type 2 changed to NAT Type 3.
As a note I only use the modem/router my ISP provided me which is a Huawei HG8245H (appears to be an all in one router) and I noticed the router itself displays 2 different Gateways, the one from WAN which is of the 172.X.X.X type and the one from LAN which is 192.X.X.X type.
I tried calling my ISP several times to solve this problem but the best thing they could do was to tell me to port forward the router, so I tried it but it didn't work (nor did assigning the ps4 to DMZ). UPnP won't work either.
Looking through the Internet another problem could be that I'm being assigned a private IP Address by my ISP, I called them and according to them I have a public IP Address.
What else can I do to solve this? my ISP isn't being of much help.
As a second note, if I try to trace a route to google.com through the command console with my pc, the first 2 hops occur through first the 192.X.X.X Gateway then through the 172.X.X.X Gateway.
Is it possible that this all in one modem/router is causing a double NAT situation? If so, How could I solve this?
