I tried that in the past and it's unusable over typical internet latency.

Can't you do this via your router?

That doesn't work on the local network, does it?

You can if your router supports it

Yes, but that requires paying extra for a dedicated IP just for that.

If you have a half-decent router or firewall, this won’t work from outside the network.

Sure, but how are you going to receive them? Packet loss would seem to be an issue.

arjvik | karma 972 | avg karma 2.79 · | 2022-07-19 23:33:57

That only works for outgoing connections, sadly

Sure, but then you have to set ip addresses and network shares, it's a pain.

robdachshund | karma 18 | avg karma 0.07 · | 2019-04-16 19:18:03+00:00

It doesn't really work. Even with a great connection you will get kicked off of their servers.

haven't tried that but I would assume you get locked out of bluelink connectivity.

This kind of scheme goes to hell once you're bouncing between networks unfortunately. Especially when you're on completely disconnected machines half of the time.

geekgawd | karma 0 | avg karma 0.0 · | 2011-12-10 17:58:09+00:00

Also, doesn't work if your service provider provides dynamic IPs.

JohnFen | karma 30257 | avg karma 1.9 · | 2023-04-03 10:28:22

Only if you have an internet connection.

SAI_Peregrinus | karma 5632 | avg karma 2.07 · | 2020-10-17 01:56:47+00:00

It's also OS (well, network stack) dependent. The most general answer is that it's possible, but you might need a custom network stack to do it.

Probably possible with ND proxy if they add it in?

Good question.

It probably works if you don't have concurrent access.

emilsedgh | karma 5701 | avg karma 6.6 · | 2014-03-08 22:14:37+00:00

No, due to bandwidth issues

iigs | karma 1285 | avg karma 2.54 · | 2010-01-15 02:39:12+00:00

In theory yes, but many many consumer ISPs filter the TCP ports required to do this, so it might not be as successful as one would expect.

To me it seems you can, provided you own a good IP address.
