As I suspected. Where is your network setup. At some university campus or (more likely) at home behind a router? You are your ISP is probably using IP masquerading and that's why you can't ssh in the reverse direction. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_address_translation] One way to fix this problem can be what is called as punching a hole through the firewall.
