VNC and vodacom prepaid

[Snowolf]

hi guys,
I am currently trying to connect two pc's using VNC, I have loaded no-ip on the remote pc which resolves the ip address to a machine name www.no-ip.com
now the problem is it seems as though port 5900 and 5800 is blocked by vodacom.
i think its got to do something with the apn if memory serves

does vodacom offer vpn to its prepaid customers ?
any other ideas ?

thanks

Is the target machine on Vodacom? If so you need to apply for the unrestricted APN which allows inbound connections. There is a form on the vodacom site you need to fill in.
