Because by all accounts, judging by the Wiki Entry, usign a public server is not really a wise thing to do in production .... the " http://dumbme.mbit.com.au/trixbox/stun_servers.htm" link on teh Wiki is broken, and the Wiki also says "Note: stun.fwd.org is gone; also stun.freeswitch.org is never guaranteed to be up and running so use it in production at your own risk.".... so I can only assume that most public servers are similarly provided on a "best endeavours" basis and prone to disappear at any time. Further, I now have an IPsec VPN between me and the firewall, hence eliminating NAT concerns, and I am still seeing the same issues as originally described with things partially working (even with Any/Any rules applied to firewalls).
Why not pick up a public stun server and config it in your softphone, most likely it will address your issue.
Agree on STUN, most NAT problems can be resolved without it, freeswitch can handle phones behind NAT nicely. Make traces (tcpdump) at server and phone network, check all RTP streams find where it get blocked (misdirected). most likely it is network related problem.
