The PAP2T does not include DynDns (or any other dynamic DNS client) support. Mostly because it really does not need to. Asterisk gets the IP address of the PAP2T when it registers so it does not need anything else to find it. If you are unwilling or unable to open/expose the necessary ports to the Internet then there is no way for the PAP2T to communicate with your Asterisk server. Maybe you could have a SIP proxy on the outside on a static IP and then allow that Proxy to relay the PAP2T into your network? -- Carlos Chavez Director de Tecnología Telecomunicaciones Abiertas de México S.A. de C.V.
