Think of this as a fallback option. That's why it has single line (easily copy+pasted) commands in it.

Really useful tutorial, didn't had a clue till now how I can make it vibrating with commands, or how to make a call that way and stuff, thanks 
The only part which I can't get working is:
It say's unknown command (Qst-launch)
The only part which I can't get working is:
gst-launch v4l2src device=/dev/video1 num-buffers=1 ! ffmpegcolorspace ! jpegenc ! filesink location=frontcam.jpg

Interesting concept. For the record, I'm on T-Mobile here in the US.
It got me thinking though, if instead of the "write ip to a file" line in the if-up script you put a reverse port forward like:
Code:
ssh -R 2210:localhost:22 [yourserver]
Might be worth trying out.

This means that if it is out of signal range of any network when you try to get hold of it, it can still get the info to you when it finds a network connection...

Excellent collections of one liners synthaxx, here is what I modified:
Writing your IP to a file does not really have anything to do with ping reply, so for better abstraction I created a new file instead of editing /etc/network/if-up.d/00_disable_icmp_echo_reply
I named it /etc/network/if-up.d/10_send_ip
I might also mention that I had some problems SCP:ing the file to my server, considering the script isn't run as my user, my SSH config doesn't get used, add the -F parameter in order to use a specific config file.
You can also skip saving the IP to a file by changing the file 10_send_ip to:

Code:
scp -F /home/user/.ssh/config /tmp/n900ip

ssh -F /home/user/.ssh/config $SERVER_HOST "echo `date` $ip >> $LOGGFILE"

@ecksun
Thanks! I was just trying to get this to go directly to an ssh session, and yours works very nicely.
I agree that putting it in the disable echo reply script is not the prettiest method, but since that script will only execute with an external connection it'd do for now.
Got me thinking too. What if you have the script checking for a specific file, something like "stolen" on your server. If that file exists, start a reverse portforward.
That way, if you make that file it'll start an ssh which allows people that don't have direct access to the ssh session via their public ip to still access it remotely.
