PUREVPNPort ForwardingHow to enable Port Forwarding behind a Nebra Helium Miner

If you’ve bought a new Nebra Helium miner and want to open ports, this blog is for you. This guide will explain the Port Forwarding issues and how you can port forward behind a Nebra Helium Miner.

What is a Nebra helium miner?

You’re connected to the internet every day, ranging from home devices and restaurants to smart dog collars and company machines. Mostly IoT devices! But, you can’t stay connected to the internet everywhere. This is where a Nebra helium miner comes in. 

A Nebra helium miner works like a vast network of WiFi, LongFi for its extensive range, allowing you to mine HNT, like a helium miner, on the Helium blockchain. Nebra Helium miner awards you cryptocurrencies as Helium tokens, allows you to host hotspots, is easy to use on mobile devices, and works as a broadband router. 

The best part is that you get Helium tokens to buy a Nebra helium miner, build a network, and allow other devices to connect to the internet. You can even mount a Nebra helium miner outdoors, and it’s well protected from the outside environment. 

To make a long story short, with a Nebra helium miner, you can create a WiFi network that reaches 200 times farther than usual WiFi routers.

Why is Port Forwarding an issue on Nebra helium miner?

The biggest issue is using a static IP to initiate the Port Forwarding process, and some people don’t have static IP addresses on their devices. As the IP address keeps changing, you need a static IP address first. Another reason is opening ports behind the Nebra helium miner. Some people cannot port forward the correct ports or change the configuration settings. 

Plus, whenever a user tries to open ports on a router, the ISP automatically rejects the request because they assign the same IP addresses to multiple users on the same network. To put it simply, you and your neighbor might be using the same IP address on routers, and this is why you can’t open ports because it causes issues for other people on the same network.  

However, Port Forwarding and Dedicated IP add-ons can help you define the port forwarding rules, whether it’s on a Nebra helium miner or CGNAT-enabled routers. It would help if you considered using PureVPN add-ons to eliminate this problem.
