Pure fiber- looks like public IP, but is unreachable outside Telus

I’ve got Telus PureFibre 1.5/.95 service in North Vancouver.   The Nokia fiber device is plugged straight into an Eero. The Eero gets what looks like a public IP address (173.180.26.88). All the de...

    I can ping your external IP so it is indeed public. Perhaps you have some firewall rules blocking access on the Eero?

What does canyouseeme.org show you for your public IP address?

      Then you are not behind carrier grade NAT. The issue narrows down to port forwarding. Does port 65001 look to be alive from canyouseeme.org?

        Nope. No ports (including 65001) work from CanYouSeeMe. Fails with a connection timeout.

        If I'm on any network except the LAN, I can't connect to anything.

        Strangely, if I connect from another machine on the local (192.168.x.x) network *to* the public IP and port (173.180.26.88:65001), it works, and the Mac shows the IP address of the login as coming from the public IP address.

        But as soon as I'm out on any other network (even another Telus network, just not routable to my LAN) I can't connect to the 173.180.26.88 host.
