Need to send data to GPRS module configured as server

[vdharan]

Hello,
I am using SIM100S GSM/GPRS module. This module has got an option to configure it as a server. Also There is a command to assign a port number to accept incoming connection when configured as a server.
When I configure it as a server and when i request for the IP address, It gives me an IP address which is allocated to it by the service provider.

Now I want to open a socket to this IP on the assigned port number from another remote machine on the internet. When I try to open a socket , Iam getting an error as "Network is unreachable".

What should i do to connect to the device and send data?. Can any one give me a suggestion to do the same.

Regards
vdharan

Most GPRS service providers give a private IP to GPRS connections. It is not a realworld IP so while it can be used easily as a web client, it would not be possible to use as a web server.

What I feel is we need a static IP for this type of application.

Does any one has any update or is succeessful in making a embedded server?
