Philip,

If your gprs provider is tmobile you can't get inbound connections, no
matter which gprs service you get. It took us a while to prove that.
external address, nat address no matter. The external address might as
well be a nat address as nothing is allowed to come into the external
address.

That said if you need to reach your systems for control and not general
access you can raise an ssh reverse tunnel and then you can reach in to
the unit.

Cheers,

David
