As mentioned yesterday on this list, iax v1 (which is udp port 5036) has
been discontinued.  iax v2 (udp port 4569) replaced it, and is now
functional via iaxtel.com (as of 7pm CST).

As Mark has pointed out a couple of times in the last 24 hours, the 
iaxtel.com server has been up/down due to a couple of problems that he
believes are now fixed.

As someone previously pointed out, telnet'ing to a udp port (as shown
above) will never work.

For those that aren't sure how to change their * server to use iax v2,
one method is to look at your extensions.conf file for:
 exten => 500,2,Dial(IAX2/guest at misery.digium.com/s at default) 
                        ^
and ensure "IAX2" is specified. If you're behind a firewall, then open
udp/4569 inbound.
