Hello Community.

 

Right now, my ISP won't enable so i can access my public IP address inside my own network.

 

So my question is, before i buy a router from TP-Link:

Does alle the TP-Link Routers (Archer i think they are named) has the possibility or function to ENABLE or TURN ON NAT loopback / NAT hairpinning?
Also: Will i be able - if i replace my ISP router with a TP-Link Router, no matter what model, be able to access my public IP address inside my own network and not just outside at other places?

Hi @Freakerz,

The NAT Loopback function usually distinguishes between TCP and UDP protocols. Archer routers support NAT Loopback for TCP protocol.

I'm still waiting for my last question.. Can the NAT loopback / NAT hairpinning function be enabled or disabled after own choice in the Archer routers?
