You guys need to look into the Ranch Networks solution. With a Hosted PBX, you can put the Asterisk box at you location. Then we take a Ranch Networks box and put it at the customers site. the Ranch Networks box does all the NAT traversal, qos, firewall, etc. plus it will bring the media locally so you don't have to go over the internet for simple branch to branch calls. Plus, the ranch Networks box provides high availability or clustering if you need that.

There ya go, one box fixes all.

    I must agree with this having seen a 5 phone office with a hosted
    system
    over ADSL.  The system was never reliable and they eventually scrapped
    it and came to us.  As we are in the same building, I setup their
    phones
    on to asterisk with their own contexts, etc. and replaced their simple
    switch with a Linksys 224P (poe + layer3 managed).  Inbound calls are
    presented on a ISDN BRI (ZapHFC), outbound via VoIP.  The only
    comment
    has been about the occasional slight echo.
