Changing the NAT settings. - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there ANY way to change NAT setting that my phone is using? I've got a v. fast connection and want to use it for online gaming but the NAT type I have now (Strict) does not really let me do that. I've tried Barnacle Tether but it is not working for me... So, any suggestions would be really appreciated as this is important for me.

I believe you can't get open NAT on android. we do not have UPnP so no NAT

[Q] Anyone been able to ssh remotely (not with wifi) to their Thunderbolt?

ssh from your computer over wifi is easy, but doing it over LTE seems to be problematic if not impossible (with the phone acting as the server). It doesn't look like we're given a public ipv4 address and they're just doing an NAT magic to translate it into an ipv4 addy on their end, but it doesnt necessarily link back to you always (if you check your ip over a browser).
With my home connection being SOL as far as having ipv6 thanks to craptactular att "we dont need no ipv6 for our customers," I don't see any possible method to reach the phone.
Blackberries had a static ipv4 (when I had one) but I know that's a dying thing for new phones with ipv4's days numbered.
I know there's other solutions (like vpn), but obviously that's not the same.
i have not had any luck either and that makes sense now cuz i remember having issues with trying to run a server on my phone . damn this is annoying.
I cant get ANY data to work with the exception of once and that was only searching google.com but no other website would work... any ideas anyone?

Nope, not really. Probably could set up a vpn server on my VPS server and and vpn into that to get around the NAT though and do some work in iptables for routing. That was the only thing I could come up with.
Hi,
I know that it was stated that "ssh from your computer over wifi is easy," but this process is not immediately obviously to me. I have succeeded in sshing with the phone, but not into it. Can someone explain how to ssh into the phone (from a computer with wifi that the phone is also connected into)?
Thank you,
Michael

You need an ssh server on your phone. You can either use something like dropbear, which comes by default on most AOSP ROMs and you can figure out how to set it up by reading this or you can use something like sshdroid, which is a GUI app.
I'd be willing to bet that verizion simply blocking ports and not giving you a real ip

Unless you're roaming, you're always behind NAT and an IP within verizon's network. No one is going to give you a real and static ipv4 address nowadays regardless of the mobile network, there just arent enough left. IPv6 however I do not know if it routes out or not, haven't tested yet and the only place that I have an ipv6 address is my remote server so it doesn't do that much good usability wise to me.
Thank you for the really helpful comment! Now for another silly question: imagine the case where you have your phone connected by USB to your computer. Is it still possible to "ssh" into it using one of the methods described above?

if you have the usb cable connected, you could just use adb and type "adb shell"
Otherwise, I don't think so because you aren't registering a network address via usb.
So once you are into your phone with adb, is it possible to run a program like ConnectBot to ssh out from the phone through your computer's adb shell?

Yes, if you mean ssh into your computer's sshd (ssh server).
ssh client (phone) → ssh server (computer)
or you can go the other way as well if you have an ssh server on your phone.

[Q] Wireless Tethering to Playstation 3 - NAT Type

So I have searched and searched to no avail so I had to try and open a new thread.
My problem is when tethering my Evo 3d to my Playstation 3 (without a computer) I get a NAT Type 3 (strict). I can still play online with NAT 3 but with limitations, I can't join in party's with my friends and matchmaking takes some patience. I am looking for some help on how to get an Open NAT Type 2 (Type 2 means connected wirelessly with no problems).
It used to work just fine right after I rooted but then I flashed a new rom (Senseless from scrosler if I remember right) and then it would connect as Type 3.
From what I have read I think it could have something to do with the Kernel but I feel I have tried every combination I could think of. It could also be the version of wifi tether. It could also need some port forwarding... Is there any way to forward ports with any apps while using wifi tether?
Here is my phone specs
Evo 3D
Android version 2.3.3
Hboot 1.5
Rom- Omj's Evo 3D v1.1
Kernel - 2.6.35.10-gcb1cf83 (stock)
Wifi Tether version 3.1-beta8
I have routing fix checked and mss clamping checked.
I am hoping there are some Playstation users out there beside myself that can benefit from any help with this issue. Thank You

Or you can get home internet like everyone else and not have to worry about it at all.
Have you tried another tether app like barnacle?

I have tried barnacle but I couldn't get it to work at all. The PS3 can't connect to ad-hoc and from what I know that's all barnacle can do. Maybe I am misinformed. I could try it again tonight.

I wish I could. . . Broke college student
Man, I had that issue too when I used to tether with my Evo 4G. I never could find an easy way around it. Just had to deal.
It was sad too. My connection was plenty fast.
As I remember, a buddy of mine had to do some hackery to his DSL router to even get that off strict, so I can only imagine it is pretty tough with a phone.
Can you USB tether to a laptop (or desktop), and bridge the connection with the ethernet port, and connect your PS3 to that?
That's what I used to do in Windows Mobile, before wireless tethering was a thing

The thing that gets me is that it used to work absolutley fine. I am trying to figure out what combinations of things might make it work again. ROM kernel WiFi tether version etc... Thanks though!

I was wondering, Do you have a router that you can be flashed with ddwrt? I know you mentioned that you didn't have a computer but maybe go by a friends house for initial setup if your router is compatible?
It might be possible to set up a router as a wireless repeater. It would be
wireless phone signal to wireless router to ps3. This would only prove useful depending
on your current connection speed though. It might be something to look in to. If you do
have a way to set that up I could try to help as much as I could.
I currently use a wireless signal to a wireless router and
have it set up as a repeater.

I have computers at work that I can use to set things up so that wont be a problem. I just don't have one at home to use. I think I could definitely look into that because the logic sounds pretty solid from what I know. I wonder if what ever problem the phone is having would just get sent through to the repeater as well but who knows. I might have to PM you if I decide to go that route and I get stuck.

Even though your speed for dl/ul is really fast, ping times, packet loss, etc are probably what is causing your nat 3 type. Like the other poster said with his evo 4g, there is nothing you can do and will have to live with it. You either have to get a dsl/cable line or be stuck like you are currently.
Okay i have that tether app its the wifi tether v3.1beta6 exact same setup except i have Routing fix uncheck and have MSS clamping check and wifi-driver reload check also check on under Domain-Namesever on preferred DNS its 8.8.8.8 and alternate its 8.8.4.4 an i also have an app called filterproxy installed running. Also when ur doing ur set up on the ps3 disable the UPnP works i have NAT type 2 running check the pic
also if need the filterproxy app here it is

Thanks! I am going to try that as soon as I can. Do you think Roms/Kernels come in to play with getting it to work too? I will try it on the Rom I am running and report back with what I find when I get home and can try it. Are there any specific filterproxy settings I need to set up? I am hitting the thanks button anyway because you have given me some hope.

I tried this method with no luck. Still Nat Type 3. I couldn't get it to work with the routing fixed unchecked either. Did you do the manual set up or the easy set up on the PS3. In your pictures wouldn't the Primary and Secondary DNS have to be the same as what is specified in the Wifi tether app? Something doesn't seem quite right but maybe I am just doing it wrong. Any more ideas would be helpful.

[Q] changing Nat type while tethering?

Is there a way to change Nat type on device ( galaxy note3)? Basically I'm trying to tether my device to my Xbox 1, as is I can connect and tether my 360 and it works fine, but in the xb1 it connects but I see the Nat type is set to moderate and not open thus causing connection issues. I played with apn settings and was able to set Nat type to strict but not open so I'm under the impression it's dueable through specific apn settings. I do see fields in apn settings that list port, but I'm not that educated to know what goes there or if it's even possible. Any help would be appreciated
