Hello, NAT/Firewall is truely a problem in the
ITSP arena. There is one solution I know of that works
well as an integrated DHCP/NAT/Firewall into a SIP aware
firewall. Check out www.intertex.se and look at the IXX66 products. They even have a
device that integrates DSL/NAT/Firewall. Or, one can purchase a SIP device
that supports STUN(Grandstream and SNOM are the only vendors I know of that do)
and install a STUN server. If anyone is interested I have a STUN server
running to test with. Hope this helped....
