NOTE: For the settings used in the above example, you should be able to access the router from any external network using the link sirettatest.ddns.net . An important point to be aware of is that the SIM Internet Service Provider (ISP) may have blocked remote access using a carrier-grade NAT (CGN) or public access firewall for security purposes. You will need to speak to your SIM provider to resolve these issues.

Siretta highly recommends the use of a private APN provided by an industrial SIM card provider with access to a fixed IP address.
