npub1tj54dz997wrdyqgf8sc36z3upy3ld0ujmwqyx42dtqxcwc7l68fqlx5ry2 (npub1tj5…5ry2) I haven't lived in Italy for too long to be up-to-date on ISP policies, but at least a decade ago mileage would vary. Providers like Telecom and Wind didn't have any constraints on public external ports, but others like Fastweb were very problematic - basically all the clients in that case are connected to a big local network with internal IP addresses and limited NATting. I remember that back in the day accessing my ex's computer over SSH from the outside was only possible after I connected her to my VPN, and even calls with the customer service ended up with "sorry, your public IP is shared with a few thousands of other customers and NAT is not possible".

The NL is much more liberal (at least the ISPs that I know of), but in my case I'm also stretching a bit what's possible with a home connection - the upload bandwidth is quite limited compared to DL, and I now receive periodically calls from Ziggo inviting me to upgrade to a business contract.
