Ok... You will need to give us more information...

What type of SIP Phones are you using?? (Make and Model)

What model of WRT54G are you using? What firmware do you have on the WRT54G?

Regards,
Derek

Just had my brother connect from his time warner cable in minnesota to
my adelphia in colorado springs, both NAT'd and I have my DMZ on,
still nothing :(

Any other ideas???
I wanted to setup an asterisk server so I could have VoIP in the house
but then send SIP phones to my parents in Minnesota to save on long
distance costs and cell minute usage.

Thanks!
