Huge thank you Amobia!

Can you not ask for a public IP?

I did, only way is if I go for a capped account.

I assume you'll face similar challenges if you go the ADSL route. Is DynDNS or a similar service not an option?

No, with Adsl (or 3g) you get a public IP, since you're connected directly on the net, so you can use something like DynDNS. Amobia wants to to connect to their internal network first, then from there out on the net.

And something like teamviewer or logmein is not an option?

That's what I was thinking off.

[Roger.Wilco]

No it's not an option. All those requires you to be directly on the net. From outside, your connection will go to the router on Amobia's side, which won't know what to do with it.

Well works for me at home (logmein)

Uncapped? If so, pls pm your details so that I can follow up with them.

Did you actually test this, cause I want to disagree on your statement...

[MDE]

I completely disagree! I've tested it multiple times now as I have logmein installed on my home PC and can easily log in to it from my work.

BTW I have PM'd you. (Roger.Wilco)

EDIT : Found this PDF on Logmein. LINK Read page 5 and 6

[Roger.Wilco]

Those diagrams in that PDF is not what the layout will be with a private ip. And I've obviously not tested with Amobia, but their sales and technical department confirmed with me that I won't be able to access anything on my network from outside, unless I take a capped package.

[MDE]

Well, they are wrong, as I can! Again I say...I connected to my PC this morning on the Amobia 1mb uncapped from my work PC, 10 km away on a completely different network.

The login program that is installed on your PC creates an SSL tunnel to the Logmein Servers. When you login through the website you see your pc. Trust me it works!

[SharkBait]

And I almost 100% teamviewer will work as well.

[MDE]

ssssshhhh but utorrent remote also works

[SharkBait]

Hahaha, well done. Good to know.
