I guess CGN (Carrier Grade NAT) is having more and more impact, and all because we still want to use IPv4 and there is a severe shortage of IPv4 numbers. Especially on the mobile connections I see A LOT of CGN being applied. If I go 5 times to whatismyip.com within 1 minute I will get 5 different public ip numbers. If at all possible see if you can add ipv6 on the server and then see if you can use ipv6 on the various client sites with the problems. That should avoid the NAT problems. The use of IPv6 SHOULD not have a mandatory extra charge as it is NORMAL internet access.
