[Freeswitch-users] doublenat outgoing call issue

Interestingly I *can* call outbound to the WAN a SIP client registered with
FS via Fring. I wonder if Fring have some additional nat traversal/SBC
malarkey going on as they proxy the calls.
I can't call outbound to an Eyebeam softphone registered directly wth FS
though - although said Eyebeam is registered and can call inwards.
I must have my nat handling configured wrongly.
