On the Internet Calling->NAT Traversal page I have checked the box next to "Server is behind NAT."
On the Gateways -> ISTP Account page SIP Keepalive is set to "None" which is supposed to default to CR-LF and RTP keepalive is set to "replay last packet." Flowroute's account settings page doesn't offer any options regarding NAT. I'll have to ask them if they can disable any NAT Traversal settings.
