Which of the 100+ SIP/STUN/RTP RFCs with all their optional appendixes are we talking about ? Standardization really _isn't_ SIP's strong point. (Wide adoption is ) Some of us (Ed Guy in particular) are making an effort to get the IAX2 RFC into shape. The draft is pretty usable now. http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-guy-iax-04.txt It has the huge advantage that as it is 108 pages, you at least stand a chance of knowing what should happen :-) It is true that the implementation in asterisk has changes and there have been the odd snafu's but that's been true of all the features. >> >>> >>> I think I would spend a day or two getting SIP working properly, >>> now, >>> rather than spending days trying to figure out audio issues and >>> having >>> to revisit and get SIP working properly in the future.

Like I said to the OP, if your provider supports it, then it will probably be simpler to implement at your end in this specific case (multiple asterisks behind a single NAT supporting incoming calls).
