All of this in reply to a 3G network though. I've not yet seen any 3G provider actually provide a non-rfc1918 internal IP which is not NATed to the Internet.. Unless you actually pay for that function. Thereby rendering most of this thread moot :)
I have read the thread with interest, there has been a great deal of information to glean, but minimal information about actually using such, and more particularly, no pointers to initialising under Linux rather than Windows or a Mac. It makes me think that I really need a 3G (or maybe 4G?)device that provides WiFi connection, or an ethernet port, rather than a USB device.
That is until mobile provides actually bother to implement IPv6 on their subscriber networks
It is coming to a crunch where it should be IPv6, and nothing else, but I am certain that they will not move soon enough, citing "legacy" systems that cannot cope. The sooner that Microsoft Windows is _NOT_ supported, the better for all of us. I cannot see why they cannot do perl scripts for both Mac and generic GNU/Linux, both have perl installed by default, it is not on Windows by default, but can be installed, or run from a minimalist installation on the USB device. It should be a lot more robust, but less obscure, and more open to the hacker (and cracker) communities. Regards, Mark Trickett
