*Community,
I am a new VoicePulse customer, using their EXCELLENT connect.voicepulse.com services. I have asterisk CVS head 10/20/04 running quite successfully, with 10 SIP phones, voicemail, and 2 zaptel lines. The box is running Gentoo Linux, and is running on an Internet connection which is a ComCast cable modem, with a LinkSys BEFSR41 router running the LAN.
I have IAX2 configured in IAX.conf registering my IAX2 line with their gateway. My toll outgoing calls are routed through their IAX2 gateway (my local calls go out through my Zap lines).
However, I'm constantly having to "restart now" on the CLI (about every ten-thirty minutes) to keep my connection to VoicePulse online (incoming AND outgoing calls). I have port forwarding on for ports 5060 and 4569 to my asterisk box.
After talking with user VoicePulse in #asterisk, we think that it has to be something with the router or Internet connection we have. Something about routing or NAT tables being unreliable in LinkSys routers.
Anybody have any IAX2 weirdness with ComCast or LinkSys routers or a combination of the two?
Help! Thanks!
More likely than their being something broken, the router could just be timing out the connections for non-use.
Take a look at the qualify directive. The link below is for SIP, but the meanings should pass over to IAX the same.

Also see if just an iax2 reload (or whatever) is sufficient, or if you must actually restart all of asterisk. (This could help narrow down the issue.)
