ssh -R Connection

[ekeew]

i want to make a tunnel with this command:

ssh -R 80:localhost:80 serveo.net

and it only works when mobile hotspot is enabled. why?

sometimes I want to use my wifi but the hotspot turns it off.

is there a way to use tunnel without enabling mobile hotspot?

What DNS provider do you use?

I found that 1.1.1.2 (Cloudflare Security DNS) added Serveo to blacklist (thanks to phish guys). I guess some other DNS providers can be doing same. 1.1.1.1 (Cloudflare but not security enhanced) and 8.8.8.8 (Google) resolve it correctly.

ssh -R itself should work without issues as soon as your endpoint host name can be resolved and is reachable. Never had problems with it myself.
