I know, but the Freeswitch-based product I'm working on is meant for SOHO
users who only have a basic ADSL modem that acts as a NAT router, so I
pretty much have to put everything in the private LAN. Some users might need
to have remote SIP phones on the Net, behind their own NAT routers, so I
need to know how to set things up so that SIP/RTP work OK even when both
endpoints are NATted.

However, I can map ports on the Freeswitch side so that the SIP and RTP
ports are always open for remote SIP phones to connect to the server and
VoIP gateway. It's just that remote SIP phones are off-limit (remote
locations I don't have access to).

If someone has already successfully had a Linksys gateway talk to a remote
SIP phone, both behind a NAT router, I'm interested :-)

Thank you.
