Sadly, not all ISPs allow this. I run into this frustration whenever I visit my parents. They use a wireless ISP which does not provide each customer with a public facing IP. They all share the same public IP address and therefore can not receive incoming connections.

It's quite frustrating.



Ah, but it's easy to get a publicly-routed IPv6 tunnel.
