I have a several friends registered on my asterisk box that are experience
problems with their ISP blocking SIP default ports 5060 and tftp port
69. Is there any way around this problem or are they forever doomed to
VOIP since their ISP is pretty much the only ISP company on that
island. So
Can't you use IAX or alternatively, setup a VPN connection? With a VPN you
will circumvent the port restrictions.
Cheers!

i get the same problem.
My option is to change my asterisk box to work
completely on a different port, but after set bindport=5061 in sip.conf,
asterisk still listens on 5060 after resarting.
it seems bindport setting doesnt work.
any idear on how to change the sip listening port ?
When you issued a reload command, you should have seen asterisk complain
something about ignoring bindaddr on reload. You need to stop the
server stop when convenient and then restart the server to get it to
listen on another port. You can confirm what port asterisk (and
anything else) is
