Hi guys/gals,

Good news for you. Tweaking DNS pointer makes Ekiga somewhat stable on a 
wireless network.

I rewrote /etc/resolv.conf as "nameserver 202.248.xxx.xx" after DHCP on 
wireless router completed. The address is the primary DNS at the wired network (ADSL) 
provider. When you do this, Ekiga took only:

10 seconds to register and
6 seconds to start hearing echo test, equivalent response to what ekiga does on 
the wired network.

ekiga -d 4 log is on the pastebin: http://pastebin.com/0ZXU3cX1

I'll see if this technique works with wireless provider's primary DNS which 
I've been unable to find so far.

Motto of the day: Use the upstream DNS, not the wireless router's.

-------------
Rationale:
I reported yesterday that rewriting resolv.conf returned unfavorable results. 
Since I've found suspicious debug log entry in that case: the SIP server, when 
it rejected register request, returns global address of *wired* network, which 
Ekiga on wireless should not know of. Ekiga might see this global address 
because resolv.conf point to the wired router as a DNS which, in turn, issue a 
query from this global address. The routing table may also be garbled.

step 3
Edited /etc/resolv.conf so as to point wired (ADSL) router.
When starting up ekiga, it says 'globally not acceptable' after about 10 
seconds.

Side issue:
Echo test can no longer be disconnected by pressing #. It works on previous 
versions.
