HI Guys,
I just got E71 from Rogers two days ago and tried testing out Native SIP
with my home Asterisk.

My Asterisk is sitting on public internet Ip. I can get E71 registered and I
can make a call (either PSTN or private ext to my home's other phones). I
can receive the call right after I made a call out by E71, but not anymore
later.

I believe what happens is that we'are assigned a private IP (10.xxxxx) and
UDP(sip register) session times out on their router/firewall quickly. Then,
when I am reday to receive a call, Asterisk will send call to the registered
public IP pointing to this phone. Well, at that time, their
Router,Firewall(whoever has that IP associated with) has no knowedge of
which private IP:port is corresponding to this public ip:port, where a
request is coming to.

Therefore, we can't receive call on 3G. On Wifi, it may experiene same
problem.

I do set my fater's Cisco hardware phone tring register to my asterisk every
3 minutes to keep that private ip:port/public ip:port active.

I can't find the parameter in E71 to reduce default register expiry timer
from 3600 seconds to someting smaller.

We may either need new SIP support for Nokia to have this added or rely on
STUN/ICE. But, I tried their updagted SIP pack and it does't show up the
stun setting after I installed. Maybe I am installing the wrong
version.(3.0).

Do you guys have any experience with this?

Do we have some other standalone SIP client that works well on E71?

For now, I will be using Fring.com, which works pretty well; Though, I have
all my private info on a thirdparty, which is a concern always.

thanks
peng
