Need help for port forwarding

by chinesehkl . Updated 14 years, 8 months ago

Hello guys,
Please anyone could help me? I want to send packets from HostA to HostB at port 1234, but my ISP is blocking all non-standard ports. I have below idea but I don’t know if it really can work or not.
1. At RouterA, configure outbound port forwarding to replace destination port to a standard port, for example TCP 110 and send over the packet.
2. At RouterB, configure inbound port forwarding to replace destination port from TCP 110 to TCP 1234.

HostA —–< RouterA >———-( ISP )———-< RouterB >—–HostB

Do you think this setup can work?
If yes, anyone can recommend which router I should use? (reasonable price and reliable)
If no, any other solution to send over the packet bypassing my ISP firewall? VPN?
Appreciate for your input.

hkl
