does your ISP provide you multiple public IPs?
AT&T has static IPv4 blocks available for purchase. I have 7 at my disposal for an extra $15 a month!

To play multiple dreampi kit with functional port forwarding , multiple ISP links are needed OR a VPN work nice and good
Multiple ISP links aren't needed if you have multiple public IPv4 addresses and utilize 1:1 NAT.

It's not as common as it used to be years ago. There are only so many IPv4 addresses available and they've been exhausted for quite a few years. AT&T is a huge ISP in the USA and they have a lot of IP addresses allocated.

oh that is lucky I switched to google fiber and only give you 1. But it looks like I may be able to do something with my VPN provider. really interested in the feasibility of having tunneled dreamcast gaming traffic. I don't see why we couldn't setup pi's to be vpn clients.
