Good idea. It is using the correct interface. > 2. That your firewall is set up correctly.

The NAT test thing said "Port Restricted NAT". Mind you, I'm about to change ISP, and I could compile SIP and H.323 support into my NAT box - might that fix the error I saw? I'm just kind of surprised from the error message that ekiga gave that it didn't seem to be able to distinguish between errors caused by ports already being taken on my local machine so that it couldn't bind to them, and errors caused by needing to forward ports on a separate router! (And, of course, it still doesn't see my camera, although previous versions of things did, and mplayer still does. ): ) > 3.
