[ale] Verizon Wireless BroadbandAccess EV-DO

[Mills, John M.]

ALErs -

I'm among the cell-challenged, but I have hit a few of these road bumps.

I use Sprint's Vision PCS to connect between systems here (work products
also on  Vision), and I can connect via SSH to my home DSL host.

I can also do many activities (telnet, ftp) between one Vision node and
another. I don't think there are many ports open the other way, though:
I can't open a connection of practically any type from _outside_ the
Vision domain to a node inside it. Basic firewall seems to be, many
types of outgoing: OK, most any type of incoming: NOPE. 

Disclaimer: based on a limited and specialized sample.

Chris,
I'm in the same boat.  I need it to work with ssh.  None of the free or 
pay wireless networks allow ssh.  I'm not going to pay for a couple of 
years of Verison if it doesn't allow ssh.  If you get it, please let me 
know if ssh works.

Thanks,
Jim.
