Polycoms are not the best if you want a phone that works behind NAT.
Are you kidding me? I used to think that anything SIP was a pain behind NAT
until I turned on 'nat=yes' for the peer/user/friend entry in sip.conf and
told the IP501 to register to the Asterisk box. (All defaults too, no
special hyper-fast register interval or goofy Polycom configuration at all.)
And even after that I wouldn't believe it until I had three of them behind a
plain-jane WRT54G on standard Telco dynamic IP ADSL talking to my Asterisk
box connected through third-party ADSL. Calls go out, calls come in, it's as
if they're on the same LAN.
Seriously: It Just Works. I keep popping into #asterisk-dev and thanking OEJ.
I'm still not a huge fan of SIP but I have had *no* issues with Polycom
IP501s behind NAT talking to an Asterisk box on a real IP.
Same here with IP600; they just work. :)
