I have cut and pasted the following information from the screen which appears
when I access my wireless modem with a browser.

Custom Configuration TCP 5235 - 5236 192.168. 2. 10
Custom Configuration UDP 5237 192.168. 2. 10
Custom Configuration UDP 5000 - 5100 192.168. 2. 10
Custom Configuration TCP 5060 192.168. 2. 10
Custom Configuration TCP 30000 - 30010 192.168. 2. 10
Custom Configuration UDP 8000 - 8005 192.168. 2. 10

The first two lines represent the ports which must be opened for Qnext. The
third line represents the ports which the ekiga.org site says have to be
opened to let Ekiga work behind my modem/router/firewall. The ports are
forwarded to my machine at 192.168.2.10.
Having done all that, the configuration druid still reports that I'm behind a
symmetric firewall. Is that expected? Not according to the information on
the ekiga site. What exactly does that mean for being able to receive
incoming calls?
I am currently registered with two sip registrars - ekiga and freeworlddialup
(FWD). When I log on to the FWD website, I am able to access a callme
feature which places a call from that site to my FWD number. Ekiga will
answer that call but the results are uncertain. Sometimes, Ekiga will report
that the audio device cannot be started. Other times a connection is made
and I am able to receive sound but not transmit (at least according to FWD).
Calling [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] allows me to conduct successful
echo tests.
I am able to call [EMAIL PROTECTED] and make a connection but there is dead
silence. Is this expected. Both 520 and 530 also appear to work.
Bottom line. Can I expect ekiga to work or not on my system despite the
symmetric NAT response from the druid?
