I've currently got Asterisk running behind NAT with iconnecthere and it
works with incoming and outgoing calls. All I did enable nat in sip.conf
(nat=1) and authenticate against natrelay.deltathree.com. The only
'special' thing I can see about my setup is that the NAT device supports
UPNP. I haven't port forwarded any external ports internally.
