you could use SSH to forward the needed ports. Or you could even setup a
VPN connection to your home machine through this port. PPP-Over-SSH
should work to route a whole subnet or even the whole internet through
ohne port. Your machine at home just needs to have sshd and pppd
running and maybe do some NAT for you, if you want to access more
networks through this connection.
