[Lug-nuts] phonnes

tt seems like phones are locked down pretty tight. For example, it doesn't seem like you can vnc into the phone unless you are on the phones hot spot. Not only that, you can't use a remote ssh tunnel either, which kind of surprised me. I've take care to confirm that the firewall and SE Lonux settings would allow access to the required/specified ports. Is this right? Is there a way around? I have a location that doesn't have wifi on it's own and don't want to pay full rate just so I can occasionally access a little home automation. -Gary
