I will try and send a message with the information on how the Cisco 7960 registered with a subject that might get read by a larger audience of experts to see if we can get Asterisk to support it.
For those who missed my second message, my 7960 worked fine when Asterisk wouldn't. I traced the phones network connection and found that it did everything through broadvoice's proxy servers.
Broadvoice has two proxy servers, but the only way to get both of them is to use SRV records for proxy.broadvoice.com. The cisco 7960 kept its registration current through BOTH proxy servers, so that if anything went down the failover should have been nearly instant.
Asterisk doesn't seem to be able to use the proxy servers. All the configurations that have been posted omit them, and broadvoice omits them. We when we send our registration to phone:[EMAIL PROTECTED] it works. This is the same username/password pair and domain the Cisco phone used, but it sent it to proxy.lax.broadvoice.com and proxy.dca.broadvoice.com, niether of which went down (and aparently they were able to connect to another backend server other than the sip servers advertised as sip.broadvoice.com).

I bought broadvoice service a month ago, I'm still yet to receive the inbound calls.
They were solving it for more than six weeks. I really dunno how difficult is that.
Outgoing calls get very perfect.
When I ask regarding the problem, they dunno where the call is handled, but as far as myself is concerned I don't see any packets coming to my server. But the registration goes successfull.
It seems they needs some more techie help from the asterisk experts.

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Broadvoice problems again
However, for the last hour or so their site has been unreachable with
an icmp destination unreachable coming from 199.232.42.62, which belongs
to Cambridge Entrepreneurial Network in Quincy MA. Would guess either
someone upgrading hardware or a failure near broadvoice.
I just spoke with their tech support (978-418-7300), and was told that their
SIP server(s) were down, and that they are working on them..
FYI: The guy that answered the phone sounded like he had been there all
night. In fact, I think it's the same guy I spoke with 9 hours ago when I
called and was told that they were expieriencing problems, and the ETA was
before morning to have them working again.
I hope whatever their problem(s) are get resolved, as before their first
outage last week, and now this one, I had been using them for about 1 month
with Asterisk, and no problems!
