IP connectivity from a cellular data network to for example your home
network is not straight forward

Be aware of the following:

+ your cellular 3G IP address might be NAT'd (important when you try
to reach the mobile device)
+ your home network IP address is not public reachable (if this is the
case try to place your home ip address in a DMZ zone ~possible
security risks!!!)

Q1: How does your phone know about your home ip address (manually
configured)?
Q2: Can you ping your home network from outside your LAN?
