It is interesting that you are seeing this on different machines with
the same Asterisk version. There must be something different in the
configuration or DNS. However Asterisk should gracefully handle no DNS
or a SIP provider issue without affecting the phones. I haven't been
able to troubleshoot this much since I can't just take the Internet
connection down.
