Hi,

All I want to do is send a message to a remote IP (outside my LAN) without using portforwarding because it isn't working and I have a thread open on another site trying to deal with that. I looked into other ways and I came across the terms "SSH reverse tunnel" and "NAT traversal" but I don't know what either mean nor how to use them and I can't find help anywhere... do you have a code that uses one of these to send a message out of my network?

Well a quick Google of yout two terms returns hundreds of thousands of hits in each case. The first page of results for the reverse tunnel contains several "how-to's"
Not that hard...

I thought the idea of helping people was to give them code or advice, not to tell them to google it every time. If so, this site might as well just be a blank page saying "Google It".

No. The idea of the site is to help people who have exhausted their own resources, such as google.
