How do I get my apartment/isp (telcom) to let me open a port on my router

wtry@lemm.ee to Selfhosted@lemmy.world – -2 points –

I reside in an apartment complex where the internet services are not controlled by the management, but instead, they are managed by our ISP, Telcom. Unfortunately, Telcom restricts certain functionalities for users, such as not helping with the opening of ports or providing the admin username/password for my router. Additionally, my router doesn't appear on the network tab of file explorer. Given this situation, what options do I have to address these limitations to port forward?

i would expect your lengthy research would have included "router model default password", "reset password router model" and "port forward on router model"

I would expect you to know that since I've made a post, that I've already exhausted these options.

Unfortunately, there's a majority of people posting without exhausting their research so unless you mention in your post what you have done, anyone else can't assume anything at the risk of providing unhelpful info. "Assumption is the mother of all fuckups."
