There are many replies with different takes. I would skim through Alex's posts, there is really nothing worth reading except it will break the SIP RFC handed down by the internets themselves. I use nat=yes all the time and it works just fine. http://www.mail-archive.com/asterisk-users@lists.digium.com/msg213941.html Nobody actually answered the question about the bad side, they just argued about the SIP RFC. Many others agreed to make it default behavior and that setting nat=yes gives a an extra degree of security. RFCs are great and all, but in the real world, phones just need to work.
