are you connectable though? third world country's isps often disable port forwarding unless you request it by yourself.
I have never heard about this here in Latin America. If you want to port forward you can easily do it via your router, even the ISP's provided ones. There's also nothing stopping you from using the ISP router only as a bridge and handling everything from your own router, the ISP router only needs to receive the internet and nothing more.
The only thing about being connectable is that we have dynamic IPs, but you can easily solve that with DDNS
Can't wait for ipv6 to take over
what will that do?
Ipv6 doesn't need port forwarding

also even if there is high speed internet plans they are often expensive and not everyone can afford those ,and don't count on the websites info since most of the time the speeds are just an average taking into account business and companies internet speeds not just the average costumer and mobile data plans which are **mostly certainly inevitably caped **
I'm sure you know a lot about the pricing and internet caps across the entire world. 🙄
