Re: SSH, remote device connected via 3G



This is getting complex. Setting up of DYNDNS, openVPN/getting a VPN router, making vpn client work on Linux, configuration on auto-reconnect upon disconnection, and troubleshooting... All are not my cup of tea. Well, I just have to keep learning :)

Thanks for your suggestion! And have a good day ahead!

It's very likely that there's some way in the ISP infrastructure that
makes in 1-way.

Try opening a VPN between source and target.
Laptop as a VPN client and the other machine as a VPN server.
After that you can connect back to the Laptop through the VPN.

I can see the problem this is causing because it would mean initiating 2
client-server connections from both sides.

the VPN from laptop to workstation and the SSH from workstation to
laptop. If you're able to do both, you might aswell be able to sit
behind the laptop directly.

The only way this would work is when both machines would be up all the time.
