If you didnt have a real vpn connection and some strong limited routes
you shouldnt use ssh out of your local lan.

It's a Telia branded Thomson with no vpn-capabilities. No static outside

I would recommend swapping the router to one that supports dial-in VPN
and DynamicDNS - eg the Draytek range.
In UK the cheapest VDSL/ADSL routers in their range that support what
you would need are the 2860/2860n

You can query server prefs through the CLI but I don't know whether this
one is among them. You'll probably have to look up the property name in
the web source code or in the preferences file.

If you can't change the router then you are a bit snookered. You mention
that you want to stream remotely from work. Does work have a fixed IP

you can also nat Port 500 UDP and maybe Port 4500 to a real vpn router!

Many of the SB team got their job this way. I did for sure.

I think it is related to the "why in the hell is LMS scanning my home

Yep. That's got sufficient bollox in the article to fully qualify it as
a"high end" device. Just looks like a mini ATX PC to me though.
