I've got Grandstreams (SIP devices) working behind double NATs, none the less.
I recommend turning STUN off and make sure that your SIP devices are generating random port numbers. If they generate static port numbers, you'll get port collisions. The other parameter to watch is the "keep alive" interval. I'm not an expert, but I think this has to be long enough so that the device doesn't disconnect from the router while the various signalling is getting set up. (I've got it set to 20 seconds.) Maybe I'm missing something, but I thought it works quite well without STUN. They've never ever dropped a call.
