Well, I'm having a dickens of a time with NAT. The SIP seems to work just fine, but the media doesn't.
Just out of curiosity, for anyone else using a Sipura hardphone or ATA... what settings do they use to talk SIP through a gateway (without a STUN server)? Also... "ring groups"? You mean a shared line appearance on multiple phones? Haven't dug into doing that yet... Or do you just mean doing something like: exten => 111,s,Dial(SIP/hs_1_2&SIP/hs_2_2) ... Or something else entirely? -Philip Mark Phillips wrote: > Why bother with an entire Asterisk server in your "residents".
