You also want to look at the "registertimeout" and "registerattempts" options for your sip.conf. I had lots of problem staying registered with various providers, so now I'm running with "registerattempts=0", IOW try forever to (re-)register. In conjunction with the registertimeout you have some control over how often you retry. (IIRC, both options are CVS-HEAD only, not available in stable. But so is the "Giving up forever" error. At least I think that's the case.) -- "I am Dyslexic of Borg. Fusistance is retile.
