There is probably nothing that you can configure to on your router to make it work. Your ISP is what is blocking you from running a public ratflector. That is what I have been trying to get you to understand.
The instructions in the manual and the video do not deal with your ISP's configuration.
The instructions only work with this configuration:
PC <> Your Nat router <> ISP <> public Internet
Your configuration is:
PC <> Nat router <> ISP Nat Router <> Public Internet.

The "ISP Nat Router" is what is stopping you.
The port forwarding needs to be set on both NAT routers, or it will not work. And you need to check with your ISP to find out if there is any way to to set the ISP Nat router to forward port 9000.
Looking back at your previous posts, your whatsmyip address is changing quite a bit. That indicates their may be multiple ISP NAT routers that would need to have the port forwarding set up.
So it does not matter what router that you use. The directions just do not apply because of how your ISP has set up their network.
What do you want to run a ratflector for?
There are quite a few existing public ratflectors that do not appear to be heavily used. Is there any reason that you can not use one of them?
Mmmmm I think so, or both companies do not support port
forwarding??? To much of a coincidence.
They support port forwarding, but it only works if the ISP is not also using NAT. As soon as you wrote that the WAN IP address did not match the whatsmyip reported IP address, as I have replied to you several times now, those instructions you have been trying to follow are never going to work. And it really does not matter how many different router models that you try.
In my opinion I ‘m not doing it right And my mistakes is on what
ports and where should I have to place on the router. I did exactly
as this guy did it but the result is on the router.
Again, those instructions do not apply to how your ISP has set up your connection to the internet. It does not matter what Nat Router that you use, or how you configure it. Your ISP is blocking you from having a ratflector that is visible on the public internet.
About VPN well I ‘ll have to learn more about this kind of science jajajajja
ON the alternative I guess I ll have to learn How to do the Docker
container COA or the VM.
I do not think that a VPN solution will work for you. You are using "Cell Phone" internet. A VPN in simple terms is a NAT router with encryption. It does not give you a public IP address for incoming connections.
VPNs will allow our outgoing traffic to appear at a different public IP, but you will still need a server at the public IP end to run the ratflector.
A container is like a light weight VM. and should have a lower monthly fee than a full VM. The hosting companies will generally show you how to set them up.
