[Freeswitch-users] Recommend an IP Phone for use behind NAT

[Kerem Erciyes]

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.

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.

In the mean time, if you have experience with Grandstream do chime in
before I buy them :)
