1 month ago my router was showing WAN IP which is my public ip and the gateway ip which was also a public ip then later something changed and it started showing WAN IP which was not my actually public ip and the gateway changed to some private ip and i was getting better internet and latency in that setup now yesterday i switched my prepaid connected to postpaid connected and it changed everything now my gateway is again public ip which is causing high PING within same state.


i am near Gwalior MP my gateway is 122.169.32.1

that is really high tech team suggested me to switch to static ip, will that work ? also the local tech guy knows nothing
 
Static IP will be public IP, that's the reason people pay extra for it.

What you want is CGNAT private IP. I would say just wait and you might get alloted one automatically.
 
122.169.34.1 is not gwalior, it is Kolkata Gateway.
I did not know airtel is putting their gateways to private IPs.

I dont think CC will be of any help to put you under CGNAT. Only NOC Can.

No, with static IP, you get Public Dynamic IP or a public static IP.
 
@Ajay15

this is what my WAN IPv4 status looks like and i am from MP so there is no point of having Kolkata Gateway

My gateway is Indore MP


also like do you think my latency would be any better on static ip ?
 
don't pay extra for it. CC is useless they won't understand anything. Try restarting few times and see if you get a closer gateway.
 
lol i just got it, i see no difference,

i have tried all static / dynamic public ip / CGNAT

from all of those i saw that CGNAT had 8-9ms lower ping than dynamic and static for my geolocation.
 
sorry my bad. I read 32 as 34, which is why I said kolkata gateway.
 
It's my observation that
1. Airtel is changing to CGNAT all across phase wise
2. Whenever there's major change in your account like plan change, router change etc they treat you as a new connection sort of a thing and for first few days may be 8 - 10 days you are on public IP which changes to CGNAT automatically.

This is what happened in my case when they changed my router for example.
