Hello, been reading for a long time, got 6x RT-AC68U with 384.17
No problems but an annoying issue, so lets jump in at the deep end.
4g providers are more and more going for Carrier-Grade NAT.
Currently I have 4g internet via Orange and their flybox modem which still has its own IP v4 address and where port forwarding works (ssh).
However this will not to be the case forever and I am switching provider soon which I know already switched to Carrier-Grade NAT.
The issue: I use SSH with ssh-port forwarding on the Asus, once I ssh into Asus I can map ports to devices at the other end (putty) which works perfect, I even have a smb loopback adapter allowing 445 to be forwarded to 445 on the Asus where I can map an usb3 disk as a drive (and robocopy data back and forth).
This one is a remote setup 2500km away from homebase.
The question: can I setup from the Asus a reverse SSH connection which automatically starts and remains persistent? If so how? And how do I use this remote?
Ea. A (homebase), B (remote)
SSH to B from A, when connection is established port forwarding is also done.
SSH to A from B, this should be a persistent connect but how do I assign local ports later on from A ?
Somewhere else I use this to access a router web interface:
plink -ssh -2 -v -C -N -batch -L 127.0.0.1:80:127.0.0.1:5580 -hostkey xx:xx:xx user@url.eu -P 443 -pw password
Then I connect to the ssh server and add a listen port for 5580, locally this reverse SSH port then connects, this works but needs someone on the other end to initiate the connect, if this could work on Asus(Merlin) how would I do this (persistently) ?
Any other ideas for Carrier-Grade NAT issues? (Ipv6 is not an option)
