Before I start trying to get the bridge approach to work, I'll try to
finish the IP forwarding method. Currently working only on outgoing
calls. The destination phone rings, but I hear no ringing tone in my
SIP phone, and, once the call is answered, I get no audio either way.
Any ideas about that? I know SIP with no audio often points towards a
NAT issue, but figuring out what is going on in this scenario, and
whether it qualifies as NAT, makes my head hurt.

Anyone have any ideas on this? Please take my thanks as read for all
this help - it really is invaluable.

Cheers

Tom
