DO NOT USE MOBILE / CGNAT DEVICES WHERE THE IP CHANGES CONSTANTLY!
At this time, it is unfortunately not possible to whitelist users when your IP changes constantly.
You may inadvertently get banned because a previous attack may have used the IP you are now on.
So I suggest people only use fixed IP address devices until I can think of a solution for this problem!

Actually this explains some confusion of the missing pull up on the MFP as it should be going to pin 2 of that pack, that lines doesn't actually have a pull up on the ST diagram.

Does that mean U52 has the same problem - judging by the schematic and your history with pull-ups :)
