My ISP has no problem on phones. They use a 10.*.*.* address. ISP Natting. From their point of view, that is not a problem.
My phone's IPv4 address is 192.0.0.4, which is used for 464XLAT.
Mine is 10.190.*.*, after disabling the WiFi.
Plays havoc when I have to tether my laptop and use gmail with it - google thinks I suddenly moved 800Km north or 300 west abd blocks my account.
Surely that is something else? otherwise people would always have trouble when travelling.
It is a consequence of ISP grade NAT. I get the external IPv4 address of their CGN gateway, sometimes Barcelona, sometimes Granada. Geolocation based on IP address breaks, so google thinks it is some hacker accessing my account from those cities, and blocks the access. Happens to me almost every time I tether my laptop to my phone. Happens a bit less with OAUTH2, but fetchmail doesn't handle it. Doesn't happen with all my gmail accounts. And of course, getting a 10... address means people can not connect to me. VoIp might not be possible, I have not tried. Gaming... Of course the proper way to do is IPv6, but we clients do not decide. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)
