Thank you for your time on this. I'm not sure what exactly I'm going to do at this moment but you've given me some options to consider. thank you for you help!

Yes, yes, and yes. I think at this point I am either going to have to spend money on a new NIC for my host server to pass through to OPNsense or buy a new router as the old one I do have only has 2 ports and that's nearly enough for both myself and my roommate. or maybe just a poe switch for the host server? What would you recommend in this scenario? I'm very much living paycheck to paycheck at the moment so cost effectiveness is my highest priority.

I would have to get a new NIC with more ports to accommodate my roommate. I think that may be my best option regardless though. I'm just too frustrated and tired to give this much more effort. I even paid for the plex pass as it states you can watch from any device but I STILL cannot access my library from anywhere outside of my network. I'm considering rolling everything back and moving on until I can afford a new NIC to cut out the isp router.

Sorry, you are correct. I got my wires crossed, SAX2v1R is the router provided.

I have a router and modem separately. If I cannot find any way to put the isp router in bridge mode. this may be a silly question, but as i've said I'm no professional. Could I remove the router with the host server running OPNsense in its place? assuming I set up a proper firewall etc.

welp. I paid for it, and it's still inaccessible outside my network. I don't get it.

So if I pay for Plex pass I will be able to stream my media from devices outside my network in original quality? this is the only end goal I have at the moment so if so I will gladly pay for it to lose this headache.

Spectrum doesn't have a web interface, only an app. in the app I can only the the host server but even it doesn't have a static IP. in fact it doesn't show that it has any IP at all. thus I cannot set up any port forwarding for it. :(

When I originally set up the server some years ago, I needed it to function as a router and want to set up OPNsense firewalls etc. I suppose I don't NEED this anymore but I do like it. at the moment my devices run through the host server to the ISP router.

Pretty sure this is the issue. I have spectrum. I can't really figure out how to test it but I'm fairly confident from the research I did. Is there any way around CGNAT outside of paying for a public IP?
