Hello All,

Well i turns out to be the modem i have for DSL. It looks like having
pass through enabled in this kind of DSL modem (Westell Wirespeed) is
not enough. I played around with it yesterday and enabled forwarding
of port 22 to the only computer obviously connected to it and
everything worked. The asterisks in both sides of the results from
netstat seems to mean connectivity in and out. This is now what i get:

Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address           Foreign Address         State
tcp        0      0 localhost:2208          *:*                     LISTEN
tcp        0      0 localhost:49686         *:*                     LISTEN
tcp        0      0 localhost:ipp           *:*                     LISTEN
tcp6       0      0 *:ssh                   *:*                     LISTEN

Thanks to all for their time and responses.

Carlos
