Do PlusNet use CGNAT?

[#1]

As title says, do PlusNet use CGNAT on new plans? About to join but want this answered. Package is FTTP 1000.

Thanks

[#2 · Accepted solution]

Nope, no CGNAT.
IIRC there was a trial many years ago, but it was never rolled out.

Simple and straight answer! Thanks!

PlusNet also stopped offering static IPs though, right?

[#5]

Also any idea if any ports are blocked for forwarding such as 25 (SMTP)?

[#6]

Yes, as of last October static IP can't be ordered anymore.

Nope, I've previously run a mail server at home. Not that I'd advise doing it these days.

@nickshanks you will struggle to run a mailserver on a dynamic IP. It will be on the PBL and you wont be able to set rDNS.  If you are thinking of running a mailserevr then you might want to look at A & A L2TP service https://www.aa.net.uk/broadband/l2tp-service/

You might even get away with the Business light 3Mb/s limit for just a mailserver ?
