Full Fibre, Dynamic IP now or CGNAT ?

enly1 — Sat, 18 Jan 2025 13:35:26 GMT

Hi All - looking for collective brain guidance as I can't find any details on the main plusnet site.

I'm about to order a full fibre (500) package and noticed from posts here that static IP is no longer available.

Can anyone tell me if full fibre products are still receiving a UK routable IP that can be used with dynamic dns to support a vpn to home setup ?

I presume this is the case, but saw some references to CGNAT ranges in random posts.

Thanks in advance.

Plusnet never have used CGNAT and AFAIK there are no plans to do so.

That's correct, static IP is no longer available to new accounts

Being my usual pedant for the sake of clarity, a static IP is no longer available to anyone who has not already got one, be they a new or an existing account.
