Mar 6, 2018 at 17:39 comment added Shahid Thaika 172.16.xx.xx is what is showing as the WAN IP Address. My router's gateway is 192.168.0.1 and I have fixed my computer's IP to 192.168.0.150. I tried port forwarding as well as setting that IP to the DMZ feature. Still neither option worked. This is so confusing since I have done port forwarding many times in the past.
Mar 6, 2018 at 17:16 comment added Shahid Thaika @Tim_Stewart it is a traditional IPv4 address. The IP address in the Router shows up as 172.16.xx.xx and whatismyip.com shows it as 103.59.xx.xx
Mar 6, 2018 at 17:13 comment added Shahid Thaika @acejavelin What is confusing about the question, I'll try to clear it. Actually, I am behind a home internet connection. I have two ISPs. One is a cable connection via a fixed router and the other is a 4G Mobile connection through a portable dongle.
Mar 6, 2018 at 16:45 comment added acejavelin Your question is very confusing without any information of real use... But my guess is you are behind an Enterprise Grade NAT and do not have a "public IP" address that is dedicated to your use. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-grade_NAT
