I have two private networks I want to connect. Both are behind NAT Routers. Network 1 is 172.16.64.x/24 with a public IP of 66.109.168.x/28 trying to connect to Network 2 which is 10.15.50.x/24 with a public IP of 129.71.x.x /24. I want to be able to ping inside network 2 from network 1, how can I do this?
 
if you are trying to ping from a private ip to other private
ip, that would not be possible.

now if you try to ping from one private ip to our other public ip 129.71.x.x that is translate to a private ip,
you should be able to.

I hope that this answer your question
 
Since you're going through a public carrier, your private addresses can't see each other. You'll only be able to see the public side.

The way around that would be to set up a vpn to connect your private subnets together. Then, you would use the translated addresses for normal internet use; and the vpn for network-1 <-> network-2 use.
 
yeah either vpn or static nat the address on each end that you want to connect, though that will take a lot of public ips. vpn is the way to go.
