  • Do you have SSH access to some computer with public IP? – Kamil Maciorowski May 26 '20 at 08:21
  • @KamilMaciorowski Nope!! I do not have router at home....I can connect internet to my computer using android hotspot ......basically forwarding port is not an option because mobile internet does not allow that – sam joel May 26 '20 at 09:18
  • I meant rather a Linux box or VM in a completely different location with public IP. At work, at your friend's place; or a rented server etc. – Kamil Maciorowski May 26 '20 at 09:23
  • @KamilMaciorowski yes i have another computer with different public ip – sam joel May 26 '20 at 10:19
  • Then [this answer](https://superuser.com/a/1272891/432690). In the context of the answer your Raspberry is `host1`, the "computer with different public ip" is `relayhost` and anyone who wants to connect to the Raspberry from the Internet is `myhost`. – Kamil Maciorowski May 26 '20 at 10:29
  • @KamilMaciorowski Thanks for the link ill definitely try that out......please dont mind but what is 'localhost' – sam joel May 26 '20 at 13:43
  • [This](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Localhost). Any machine is `localhost` to itself. Referring to a machine like this may be confusing, unless everyone knows exactly which machine you refer to. I guess this is the reason the author of the linked answer used `myhost` instead. But sometimes you need to type `localhost` on some machine to make the machine refer to (e.g. connect to) itself. A sentence "on `myhost` invoke `ssh user@localhost -p 56789`" makes sense, while "on `localhost` invoke …" is ambiguous; because `myhost` is specific in this context and `localhost` is always relative. – Kamil Maciorowski May 26 '20 at 14:00
  • @KamilMaciorowski I am getting time out error on my raspi – sam joel May 26 '20 at 15:00
