Private or public IP for TP-Link MR3020

Region : India

Model : TL-MR3020

Hardware Version : V1

Firmware Version : OpenWRT

ISP :


I am using TP-Link MR3020 3G/4G Portable router with Huawei K5150 4G dongle.
When I use the combination here in India, I see public IP getting assigned as the WAN IP of the TP-Link router.
However when the same is tried with an European operator, the TP-Link WAN IP is private IP (192.168.9.x) which means the public IP is with the dongle and it is running a DHCP server and doing NAT.
This is a problem for us. I don't understand how the same router/dongle can behave differently.
Does anybody have any thoughts?
Thanks.

It is limited by ISP instead of MR3020 itself.
If you want to obtain a public IP, contact the European operator directly.
