are you connectable though? third world country's isps often disable port forwarding unless you request it by yourself.

I have never heard about this here in Latin America. If you want to port forward you can easily do it via your router, even the ISP's provided ones. There's also nothing stopping you from using the ISP router only as a bridge and handling everything from your own router, the ISP router only needs to receive the internet and nothing more.

The only thing about being connectable is that we have dynamic IPs, but you can easily solve that with DDNS
