[AusNOG] Static IP on a 3G/4G mobile service

[Tony de Francesco]

Robert,



I currently use an Internode 3G SIM with static IP address.  They have
reasonably priced data plans for static IP.



I used to use Exetel, who also offer a 3G SIM with static IP, however they
moved to a pay per use data plan for the Static IP plans, which made it
unfeasible for me but if your data requirements are small then this may be
an option.



I believe both Internode and Exetel use the Optus network.



Telstra, Optus and Vodafone do not offer static IP addressing with their
3G/4G services if you go to them directly.





Kind Regards

Hi all,



My employer has a requirement for a 3G/4G SIM that will be put into an
embedded device with a 3G/4G modem built into it.  Telstra has been chosen
as the preferred carrier because of superior coverage in general, but for
the purposes of the testing we're doing at the moment, they're not an
absolute requirement.



I'm familiar with the process to obtain a public IP on NextG (non CGN) with
Telstra, but we've asked our communications partner (we don't deal direct
with Telstra, as our account isn't big enough to warrant a dedicated
account manager) if we can get a static IP, and they effectively looked at
us like we had two heads, not even understanding the question, let alone
the requirement for it.



If anyone on the list has successfully obtained a static IP allocation from
a mobile carrier, I'd love to have a talk to you.



Thanks.



Robert
