This shouldn't be necessary.

I suppose 44.130.127.129 is the remote host you are talking about? The
one that is pinging you?
88:84:60:A6:AA:8A:00 translates to DB0SUE-0 if I managed to do it right.
Is that the correct NET/ROM address of 44.130.127.129 ? Also do you have a
NET/ROM route to DB0SUE-0 ? Ie. if you run node, what does
"nodes DB0SUE-0" command tell you? Or "grep DB0SUE-0 /proc/net/nr_nodes"
from shell?

I just verified, it works for me.
