Hello,
I'm using ppp(8) for many years to connect via UMTS to my service provider
and Internet, actually www.fonic.de; all this works fine already for long
time, works fine for outgoing TCP and UDP connections to Internet.
Until now, I did not care about incoming TCP connections, for example for
SSH'ing from remote to my netbook, connected via ppp(8), or for incoming
SIP; it turns out now,, that I can:
- check with "lynx -dump myip.nl | fgrep WAN" with which addr I show
up in Internet:
$ lynx -dump myip.nl | fgrep WAN
WAN IP adres: 82.113.99.104
- can SSH fine to some remote server,
- but can not SSH back to the addr 82.113.99.104;
I contacted the provider thinking that he is blocking all IP connects which
have not been originated by a SYN pkg from my side; but he claims not
blocking anything; and now? how can I debug this?
My interface looks like this:
tun6: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
options=80000<LINKSTATE>
inet 10.33.28.104 --> 10.64.64.64 netmask 0xffffffff
nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
Opened by PID 799
and the routing is:
Routing tables
Internet:
Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire
default 10.64.64.64 UGS 0 1694 tun6
10.33.28.104 link#7 UHS 0 0 lo0
10.64.64.64 link#7 UHS 0 1 tun6
127.0.0.1 link#6 UH 0 75 lo0
Any ideas about this? Thanks.
I'm attaching the ppp.conf file.

It seems quite clear from your ifconfig output that your provider
doesn't give you a routable address, so you will never see inbound
connections. Usually providers have an alternate APN that will give you
one, but that depends on the provider in question.
