Anyone using UniFi ubiquiti USG / 3BB / UnRaid?

[recom273]

Is anyone using ubiquiti kit, 3BB and UnRaid? 
 

Im having a few technical issues forwarding ports to my OMV server - I contacted UniFi, who say it may be 3BB - I’m not convinced because I have had plenty of conversations with 3BB about filtering traffic and they really don’t care about torrent traffic. 

 

I think that the issue is with OMV and thinking about moving over to UnRaid, I was told it was a lot more plug n play, is this true when it comes to the combination of 3BB and UniFi?

 

Any opinions?

Can you describe how you're getting the 3BB connection into the router?

 

I'm assuming you're on 3BB Fiber and have the supplied consumer router set in bridge mode so the UniFi router is can operate as the primary router to directly request and pick up the 3BB supplied public-facing IP address for itself (so no upstream 3BB device operating as a router creating a double-NAT situation), and that supplied 3BB IP address isn't one in the 'reserved' IP address for CG-NAT client devices:

 

RESERVED IP RANGES

10.0.0.0–10.255.255.255
100.64.0.0–100.127.255.255
192.168.0.0–192.168.255.255

192.168.0.0–192.168.255.255
 

My connection comes to a simple GPON terminal (in the place of a router in bridge mode) 

 

So you are correct - I shouldn’t have NAT situation but I’m waiting for a callback from 3BB.

 

Nope the public IP isn’t in those ranges.

 

I used to have a tp-link deco system - I built the server, plugged it in, installed the docker containers with R(u)Torrent / Jellyfin / Transmission - forwarded the port using a cellphone app and suddenly everything came to life.

 

I even tried a mikrotik router and managed to get traffic routed myself without any issue, but I had to reset the config, and i couldn’t remember what I did - the GUI was doing my brain in - so I thought I was moving to a simple solution. 
 

TIA for any suggestions - this is doing my brain in - I’m hoping that the issue lies with OMV / docker..

another thing - I setup a raspberry pi - ran a setup script to install Rutorrent -and jellyfin - downloaded some Linux images and instantly was instantly connectable.

 

Are you a UnRaid user or a unifi user?

We have ubiquiti EdgeRouter in the California office, but it's not running UniFi.

 

No experience with UnRaid, but there are plenty of mentions of UnRaid and Docker setup issues/solutions when googled (which is never a good sign for a simple-to-use product), and a large UnRaid help community

but there are also plenty of people who find that OMV is too fussy and when they jump to UnRaid, everything is fine.

 

im just in the process of backing up 4TB of data and going through my options - maybe just installing Debian or Ubuntu server and see what happens.
