Avaya Remote Workers - Using Starlink at IPO Location

By default, Starlink assigns users dynamic IPv4 addresses behind
Carrier-Grade Network Address Translation
(CGNAT). This configuration shares one public IP among many users, meaning you cannot open inbound ports or set up traditional port forwarding. [1, 2, 3]
While standard port forwarding won't work, several workarounds exist to bypass CGNAT and access your home network remotely:
1. Enable IPv6 (Native Solution)
Starlink natively supports IPv6 and assigns a public IPv6 address to your devices. If you use a third-party router and your applications (like Plex) support IPv6, this is the most direct way to get a publicly routable connection. [1, 2, 3, 4]
2. Mesh VPNs (For Remote Access)
Software-defined mesh VPNs bypass CGNAT by creating secure, direct point-to-point tunnels between your devices.
  • Tailscale: Highly popular, easy to set up, and builds directly on WireGuard.
  • ZeroTier: Works similarly to Tailscale by creating a virtual global local area network. [1]
3. Cloud Tunnels & Reverse Proxies
If you want to host websites, media servers (like Plex), or local services that need to be accessed from outside your network without a VPN, you can route traffic through an external server. [1, 2]
  • Cloudflare Tunnels: Lets you securely expose local web services to the internet via a reverse proxy without opening inbound ports.
  • VPS with WireGuard: Renting a cheap Virtual Private Server (VPS) and establishing a WireGuard connection allows external traffic to route through your VPS and into your Starlink network. [1, 2, 3]
4. Public IPv4 (For Business / Enterprise Plans)
If you require a dedicated public IPv4 address and are on a qualifying service plan (such as Priority, Mobile Priority, or Maritime), you can toggle a Public IP policy on through your account dashboard. This assigns your Starlink network a publicly reachable IPv4 address (though it will change if you move the dish to a completely different geographical location)
