gdbserver debugging not working over internet in eclipse

Vote count:

I'm using a beaglebone black and following this tutorial debugging remotely using eclipse in ubuntu. I can debug the code in the tutorial just fine over LAN; stepping through every line works. When trying to debug over the internet it is able to start debugging but stepping through the code fails and I get 'no source available for [...]'.

By debugging over the internet I mean I start the gdbserver like this:

gdbserver 'internet ip address of beaglebone black':2000 HelloWorldTest

as opposed to over lan (where it works fine):

gdbserver 192.168.1.xx(lan ip address):2000 HelloWorldTest

Under debug configurations->debugger->connection If I put the internet ip address in the hostname box I get the debugging issues but if I put the LAN ip address it works just fine. By the way port 2000 is open on the router for the beaglebone black's ip
