Far out! I have found the problem and it all due to the fact that I don't know what I am doing (
When I do tcpdump on eth0 (WAN), every call I make e.g. even extension to extension does this: 09:28:14.684997 IP 172.17.17.200.54004 > 172.17.17.1.domain: 60192+ AAAA? 3999-IBCBuild-CM1.ipcsolutions.local. (54) 09:28:14.685599 IP 172.17.17.1.domain > 172.17.17.200.54004: 60192 NXDomain 0/0/0 (54) 09:28:14.701505 IP 172.17.17.200.52348 > 172.17.17.1.domain: 26730+ AAAA? 3999-IBCBuild-CM1.ipcsolutions.local. (54) 09:28:14.701989 IP 172.17.17.1.domain > 172.17.17.200.52348: 26730 NXDomain 0/0/0 (54) Why is it trying to resolve my local host? When I check local domain it fixes this problem but is this the best practice? Sorry Im a little confused!

Possibly registers always do DNS lookups, not certain. As long as local DNS entries are in your hosts file (Network tab -> DNS Forwarder & DHCP Server: { Configure DNS Hosts } it should work, I would guess. In the old days, I recall running Asterisk 1.2 and 1.4 on single core boxes like the PC Engines WRAP and Soekris net4801, and Asterisk DNS lookups were blocking and could *totally* lock-up a system when the WAN connection went down. I have not seen than behavior, personally, in quite some time. Multi-core and dnsmasq helps.
