Doesn’t work if you are on CGNAT

Absolutely. However I feel like the whole thread needs extra clarification, considering the question OP posed.

Yea, that is also what I thought. To bypass this, you would need something like Cloudflare Tunnels or setup a VPN on a VPS, that redirects traffic to your homeserver.
