No, I can tell you from MRTG that it is network related, but what seems to
happen is that Asterisk floods the end-user network (let's say he's got a
9000Mbits link) to the point where his phones are indeed unreachable,
because of Asterisk.

I could increase the timer, but the point of using qualify is to know when
to stop trying to send calls to a peer. 200ms is what I use.
