hi,
In a program, I have to implement a function.
That is,   (not a hacker's idea)

A--------------R----------------B
1,A tries to make a tcp connection to B.
2,R is A's default router.
3,When R receive A's ip packet, it just changes the ip   source address
by the address of itself.
  Then R sends the packets.
  R pretends that it is him that wants to establish a    tcp connection
with B.
4,B receives the packets, and responds to R...

The issue is B does response icmp packets(ping),
but does not response tcp packets
as if it regards them illegal packets and therefore discards them.

Did I miss something?
Any explanation is helpful.
Thanks in advance.

Board
