Hello folks, wondering if anyone has tried this and has worked for them?
Need someone from the outside (remote location) to access a *nix machine here.
Setup is: MTNL Triband (no static IP assigned to me.). Using Dlink DSL 502 router. LAN IP being 192.168.1.1. WAN IP is what the outsider would use to get in.
Connected to Netgear Router. (WAN IP = 192.168.1.2, LAN IP = 192.168.0.1). Machines are connected to this netgear router as 192.168.0.X)
Earlier when I had Tataindicom broadband with a static IP, the only configuration was required at the netgear router level where i did port forwarding of the service to the desired machine.
The TATA router had a different interface and a bridge was enabled there. I do not see a similar option here with mtnl.
I tried to allow under advanced--filters, inbound access to the router IP (192.168.1.2) since this is the one connected to the mtnl dsl router.
It says ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by host. Telneting to same IP gets me to the mtnl router (linux box) with no worries.
Is it possible to ssh to any machine of mine with the current setup?
thanks! -abhi

you cant access a 192.168.x.x address over the internet - you need the dynamic ip

Yes, I know that, but perhaps you misunderstood. Or perhaps i left out an important bit of information.
Here is how the earlier setup worked (with tata indicom). Everything remained the same except the DSL router provided by the ISP.
By enabling bridging mode all requests in the dsl router were routed to my internal router. (netgear wireless ). Because of bridging, I put the static public IP that I was assigned by TATA in my netgear router as the Internet/WAN IP.
The internal router has port forwarding options where depending on the request it is routed to the appropriate 192.168.0.xx machine.
Ofcourse now with MTNL i have to use 192.168.1.2 as my WAN IP because 192.168.1.1 is the gateway (which is the lan IP of the dsl router) and it also has a dynamic public IP. How do I bridge over from the mtnl router to the netgear one?
There has to be a way of forwarding the requests to the right machine via the two routers?
-thanks abhishek

There are two ways you can do this.
1. Connect the MTNL DSL Router to a LAN port of your Netgear Wireless Router. The Netgear Wireless Router will work as an Access Point. Your internal network would be 192.168.1.0/24 and the gateway would be 192.168.1.1 (i.e. the DLink Router). Now enable port forwarding for Port 22 from the DLink Router to the system you want to access through SSH.
2. Alternatively, you can configure your DLink Router to work in Bridge Mode. You can then connect the LAN interface of th DLink Router to the WAN Interface of the NetGear router. The NetGear Wireless router has PPPOE Dialer, configure it using the username and password provided by MTNL. Then enable Port Forwarding for Port 22 from the NetGear Wireless Router to the system you want to connect through SSH. Your existing network setup will remain unchanged.
Either of the methods should work. Let me know if you need more information.

Hi Manish, I tried #2 and it worked! well partially, but thanks anyways. So I could setup a bridge connection and via the PPPOE dialer of netgear router, get it all up and running. When I ssh into the public IP that triband alloted me, I can get through. It is slow though. However, when I log on to a remote server and try accessing the same public IP there is no response from the system. Ping works fine. The netgear router does have port forwarding enabled properly.

Hi Abhisekh, I saw this thread very late, but still my inputs may be of help. We have a similar requirement at one of my client's office where the remote office wants the ability to access local server in the Mumbai office to take some files in an emergency after close of office hours.
What we have done is as below. MTNL Triband does not provide a static ip, but a public ip is given each time you connect. We have used dynedns to link the dynamic ip provided by MTNL to a static ip which dyndns has given. Each time the computer connects, it updates the records on dyndns so that the remote office can connect through that url. I think there is a cron job that automatically communicates the updates to the dyndns ip address whenever the sytem connects to mtnl. (I will need to check how that happens, I didnt bother about it earlier).
That may be the easiest way out of the trouble for you. We checked it out and it works without problem.
The set up was done for me by Rajeev R K, who is also on ILUG and you can ask him if you get stuck.

Hi Saswata, I can get into the routers (netgear as well as mtnl) if I turn remote management on and use the Dynamic IP provided by them. So upto this point is not a problem.
It is only when I am trying to ssh into a box here from a remote server (ssh on dynamic IP from local machine does work. i dont know if that is strange or not) that it does not get in.
So if the netgear port forwarding was not working properly, it would not have allowed my requests from local machine to dynamic IP;which gets routed to a particular box; correct?
Ofcourse i have not tried Remote management remotely (or from a dialup seperated from the network). So the fact that i can get remote management for router working may be a red herring.

Excuse the (late) top post. 1 MTNL provides a static ip. U have to fax them a request for static ip. Rs.1000/- p.a. 2 Dlink dsl502T has advanced - virtual server settings to allow incoming / outbound connections
As stated by Saswata dyndns is workable but not completely reliable imo. Better to take the static ip.
I have a number of services running smoothly at clients. Make sure u have suitable security.

Not at all. The "advanced" is actually simply adding some new nat rules. Advanced - lan clients - (add ip address and hostname) - add - apply Advanced - Virtual server - user - add - (rule name "ssh" protocol "tcp" port start "22" port end "22" portmap "22") - apply Advanced - Virtual server - user - (select ssh) add > - apply.
Repeat above for new service.
One major problem is the stupid telnet server in the ds502t. I have not been able to shut it off.

Hi Manish, I tried #2 and it worked! well partially, but thanks anyways. So I could setup a bridge connection and via the PPPOE dialer of netgear router, get it all up and running. When I ssh into the public IP that triband alloted me, I can get through. It is slow though. However, when I log on to a remote server and try accessing the same public IP there is no response from the system. Ping works fine. The netgear router does have port forwarding enabled properly.

I think there is some configuration issue in the Netgear wireless router since I am also using one and have forwarded a number of ports to different systems which are accessible from outside without any issues. Just go through the configuration once.
