[AusNOG] Layer 2, 3G/4G Internet services

[Philip Loenneker]

James,

I can think of 2 ways to do this….

The cheapest way I think would be to have a “normal” 3G/4G connection, then have the 3G/4G client initiate a VPN connection out to the other end, and use that VPN connection for internal traffic. Obviously you can’t connect in the other direction due to the use of private IP addresses. I’ve heard of people using Hamachi for this, back before it was bought out by logmein.

The other is to pay Telstra more to get access to the Telstra.corp apn, which can drop you on a private network which you could access using private IP addressing rather than public IPs. Other providers may have similar product offerings, but I am not familiar with any.

Hello AusNOG,

Does anyone here offer (or know someone that does offer) Layer 2, 3G/4G Internet services?

I'd prefer the Telstra Network, but Optus or Vodafone would be fine too - whatever is most cost effective.

I could even get away with it as a layer 3 service, as long as I was able to get a proper, public, static IPv4 address, which is relatively hard to obtain these days.

Any assistance here would be welcomed.

Thanking you in advance.

James
