First of all congratulations to all users for this excellent forum.

Here's the situation:

In my country one specific carrier provider has a data plan with only 3,5 euros/month which offer unlimited browsing to internet (port 80 i assume) and unlimited downloads with the restriction that the file youre downloading does not exceed 1 MB.

The point in this story is that you cant work with applications that works in other port than the ports that they have open (eg voip).

They also have a proxy server to set up on your mobile device which is at 192.168.200.10 at port 9401.

The obvious question is if theres a possibility to establish a vpn connection between my mobile and a home server in order to "pass" all the traffic through their 9401 port so to conclude to use this service as truly unlimited (i mean "port free")?!?

Can anybody suggest the necessary software (vpn etc) to set up in both machines to give it a try? What kind of configuration is required in the vpn software you will suggest?Is there a point that i am missing?

My mobile device is an htc touch diamond.

Thank you!!
