Actually it must be pretty common on the wireless
distribution ISP systems. I know of one in San
Antonio that was set up that way, and one in New
Mexico that had a public IP address for customers till
they lost a port and it went to private. The one here
gave us a public IP address for a couple of years and
suddenly changed a few months ago. We had to put the
new IP address in the radio modem here to connect back
to the internet but no longer could be reached from
the internet.
All normal TCP/IP packets work just fine, and EchoLink
using a proxy works OK, but we can't use direct UDP
packets to another site.
Still trying to figure out a work around without
having to set up a dedicated proxy somewhere that
would allow us to use the IP address of that proxy for
the UDP I/O.
