Hey Guys,

 

 

 

So my work has a requirement for some systems to send data over GPRS etc . To make it fully functional, it needs to be publicly routable.

 

So the system makes an outbound connection to another system, says "this is my IP address" - and then the other system need to initiate TCP sessions back to that IP address.

 

Outbound connection is fine - but coming back in not so much. 

 

Does anyone know what the APN settings etc I need are for getting a routable/non-NAT'd IP address?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yes, I realise there is a sticky thread at the top of the forum - but it's 10 years old!

On Vodafone try 'internet' as the APN.

 

Took so long to get this out of vodafone, by the time we got informed of this I had already set up a connection with Spark using the 'direct.telecom.co.nz' APN and haven't even bothered trying to see if it works.
