>>>You also want to look at the "registertimeout" and "registerattempts"
Yes!!!, thank you VERY much this is what I needed. Where are these options documented at? I'm guessing the source code? Or is there a better place to find this stuff? A search on the wiki for "registertimeout" or "registerattempts" reveals absolutely nothing. I had been searching ealier for things like SIP register timeout and "Giving up forever" all to no avail.
