Presuming that this "test" is on your router's app --- Is SimSig running, in server mode, when you run the test? Log in to reply |

Most fibre providers now use CGNAT which prevents port forwarding from working. Essentially you and your neighbours share a public IP address and then the ISP assigns you an internal IP on their network. Log in to reply |

PPPoE is orthogonal to the question of whether your ISP lets you have a public IPv4 address or not.
