Does pwnat still work?

[MrBruz]

Does this still work reliably between two home networks?

I don't know

This only works on some consumer routers now but not all. Many routers have stopped allowing the time exceeded ICMP packets out. You could test to see if the routers you're using allow those out or not, also if you reported what router and if it did or not, that would be great info.

I was not successful also. In my case maybe never worked. My ISP assigns me a private IP. There are at least two NAT layers. I have tried pwnat at home and access from outside without luck. Any recommendation how to get by this?? I am trying to setup a vpn server at home. Thank you!

I'm working on a modernized version. Would be helpful if you could test some things for me. Can you share your router model and firmware version please? I can send you some commands privately to test some things as well if you email me directly at code@samy.pl. Thanks!

I'm interested too. Sent you an email.

It does not work for me between a NAT behind EdgeRouter X and a NAT behind OpenWrt 19.07, unless I have made some sort of other firewall error along the way.

I'm guessing the new tool is https://github.com/samyk/slipstream ?
