I was researching a way around NATs for remote phones and came across Grandstream phones that have an OpenVPN client so that you can traverse the nat via VPN and the IP phones will be connected directly to your server. So if you don't mind running OpenVPN Server as well you might give that a try.<br>
<br>I am thinking about buying a few and trying them out in the next couple of weeks, so I'll post my experiences when I'm done.<br><br>In the mean time, if you have experience with Grandstream do chime in before I buy them :)<br>

</div>We use Polycom phones with NAT and they work rather well --once you<br>
get the FS and Polycom settings right. I'll have to check the settings<br>
we're using. I'll update this thread with that info tomorrow.<br>

Email me directly if I forget. I've got enough cold meds in my blood<br>
to kill a horse... I might wake up and not remember this conversation<br>
