[ Request ] How access Apple TV2 from outside using internet?

iptv4free · 2012-01-26 03:04

I want to change some files or SHH to Apple TV2 from outside remotely. Is there any program to be used to access Apple TV2 like using local network and SHH. I don't want to use static IP. Any help is very welcome.

You could install a vpn server on a pc on your network or maybe on your router if you have nice firmware. Vpn on to network then ssh as normal

It would be much easier to use port fowarding but that would need static ip you didn't want

Is there any more help how I can find VPN software or any other info to SSH an Apple TV2 from outside using internet. I need better solution without Static IP

What will host the VPN, which os or router?
Non static internaly or externally?

1) Why not use static IPs?
2) Port forwarding is much easier.

The question is. How we can SHH to the Apple TV2 connected to the router not internet modem. It is easy, if the box is connected directly to the modem. in this case we can get the public IP event if is dynamic. The problem how we can do the same thing if the box is connected to the router wired or wireless. Any instruction will help all of us

Your last post made absolutely no sense.

You use port forwarding.

1 you want to set a dhcp reservation on your router for the apple tv.
2 you forward the port you are going to use for ssh to the reserved address.
3 you will need a dynamic dns service such as dyndns.org.
4 you will need either a computer on the same network as the apple tv or sometimes the router will have an option to update the dns service with your current ip.
5 use your new domain as the address your ssh'ing into.
