Useful when you are abroad and sites refuse to talk to non-UK IP addresses.

Now implemented using the DMZ feature of the Virgin SH2, which forwards
all incoming calls to a selected IP address, and a Raspberry Pi as the VPN
Server.

My concerns now centre on the way the SH2 implements the DMZ feature.


I've a similar use of VPN (actually OpenVPN), but poke a hole in the
firewall and simply use port forwarding to the server/UDP port. I don't
use/need DMZ. If I were running www Web servers (which I kind of thought
you were) then I'd be investigating DMZ and possibly addtional assigned
IP addresses for each server. Hmmm, do Virgin even roll out additional
static addresses for home users?
