   You are fully correct on this, indeed i'm using it the same way, and there is   
   a app on andriod that you can sync your IP adress of your device with DTDNS, i   
   have done some testing here with a app as a FTP server what is out there on   
   the same way and sync my Andiod IP with DTDNS and change the IP adress on my   
   router linked to port 24554 as for IP port to see if this was working.   
      
   And indeed it's working perfect.   
      
   About the NNTP stuff, be carrefull with this, not all echo's of fidonet can be   
   gate out, read the moderator rules !   
      
   There are some echo's that's is forbidden to gate out to internet on any way.   
      
   What i try to tell with this is simple we moven to new thing and need to   
   follow like apple do with his IOS when you dont have at last a 4g you can not   
   install IOS7.   
      
   About the data what Benny is telling of, i have here on my ISP a unlimited   
   mobile data use, everywhere on the street i can use wifi with my account.   
      
   Ok i pay a lot of money for this 149 euro/200 us every month, but i have for   
   all my options unlimited access. Even a statig IP adress.   
      
   But i dont have a problem with that high price, this is my only hobby i have,   
   dont drink dont go out only work and fidonet that's all... i need..
