Don't specify the remote side by name, specify it by IP address. If
asterisk experiences even 1 dns failure it will not try again until a
reload/restart/whatever.

I'm going to try and lay out all the relevant information I have here in
this one post. I can provide more info if necessary.
ISSUE 1:
Office A routinely looses connection to Office B. When typing IAX2 Show
Peers, it will show as Unreachable. I issue IAX2 Reload and it will work
again for 1-3 days (haven't narrowed the time down yet). My theory is
that the DSL at Office2 is changing IP addresses regularly and this is
the cause of the problem??? This has been going on since I set up Office
B (2-3 weeks). I never had to touch Office B box. Office B seemed to
maintain connection, until now (see Issue 2).
ISSUE 2:
Office B will not connect to Office A via IAX2 any more. The command
IAX2 Show Peers shows Office A as Unreachable. IAX2 Reload won't fix it.
I even rebooted the box (MS tricks never die). Up until yesterday,
Office B always remained connected to Office A (or at least since I set
up Office B - 2-3 weeks ago). Each office has port 4569 forwarded to its
* box. I even moved Office A box into DMZ, no help. Note, Office A
extensions can call extensions at Office B.
Here is the log file after I issue IAX2 Reload from Office B box:

I'm an admitted newbie, but this seems (to me) that this may be
networking/Linux issue and not Asterisk???
SETUP:
OFFICE A:
-Asterisk 1.2.5
-Linksys WRT54GS router w/ SVEASOFT Alchemy-pre7a v3.37.6.8sv
-TW Roadrunner cablemodem (business class)
- * box sits behind router with port 4569 forwarded to * box. As noted,
I moved * box to DMZ at one time, no help. Internal static IP address of
192.168.1.24
