dhclient leasing a private IP address

[cjmv]

Now this might be an issue completely unrelated to this project specifically, but I'm probably missing something along the way while configuring the wwan0 device.

Whenever I try to obtain a new IP address I get a private IP address:

cjmv@JetsonNano:~$ sudo dhclient -1 -v wwan0

Now, this doesn't sound right. Any ideas?

I think dongle is providing you a local ip address. The public ip is with dongle.
Mine works this way
