How to connect to a Telnet Server from the Internet (EDGE)

To allow a connection with the iPhone on the EDGE network or another wifi network, maybe at your local Cafe, you must configure the router/firewall protecting your office network to allow traffic on port 23. This could be a security risk! Read the router manual for advice.

An example:

I have a router at my office, which connect to the Internet. It has IP address 88.1.2.44 on the Internet. The router has a fixed IP address on the Internet, if your internet provider (ISP) gives a  dynamic address, a solution could be to use a service as NO-IP

Our Office Linux PC has a fixed IP address on the local network (wifi) at 192.168.2.2

In the router firewall configuration I have configured, if it receives data on port 23, forward it to 192.168.2.2.

When on the EDGE network with the iPhone, I will in Telnet as Server IP address write

• 88.1.2.44 , and as port 23 (Not the IP address for the Linux box!)
