    Ages ago I grabbed the list of ports for minecraft from portforward.com, whether those extra UDP ports are required today or not, I haven't checked.

     

    With your WAN address being 100.82 it means your connection is being natted. In this case, known as CGNAT or NAT444 meaning you aren't able to port forward. It's like having a router plugged into your router, but in this case telus has put your router(modem) behind their router.

     

    You have a few options to deal with this;

    1) Do nothing and just live with not being able to port forward or host anything.

    2) Get a VPS somewhere and use wireguard to tunnel (thereby forward ports) to a computer on your network.

    3) Try this: https://forum.telus.com/t5/Internet-Home-Phone/WAN-IP-is-not-a-true-public-IP/m-p/112967#M27464

     

    If you go for option 3 good luck and be patient with your agent, they'll likely have no idea what you're talking about.
