I understand that with Verizon port forwarding is impossible without the one-time $500 static IP, however port forwarding shouldn’t be required for outbound only connections. It’s odd, I can attempt to connect to a node and it never connects, then 5 minutes later I can try again, and it does connect. Or I may try node AAAAA and it doesn’t connect, then BBBBB and it connects, then AAAAA and it doesn’t connect. But others can connect to AAAAA. Or when I get to work or home on WiFi then I can connect to AAAAA. Then 10 minutes later I leave the house and I connect to AAAAA just fine. In other words, there is no logical pattern lol.<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">I guess I need to start writing down what nodes and can and can’t connect to, and when.

If so, you will run into issues with port access. All of the major carriers (Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile) have laid out there LTE networks in a manner that result in dual-NATing, there is no way to port forward from the “real” internet address to a device connected to your hotspot. Verizon will give you a static IP with ports available for a mere one-time fee of $500.
