Yes, this is the nasty secret of SIP. Well not that secret since
hundreds of pages have been written about it and several people come
to #asterisk daily with this exact complaint.

One direction is IAX2 and hopefully there will be the Farfon adapter
in the not too distant future for that as well as the first IAX2
phones about to ship RealSoonNow.

For only home use, you should be able to get it working with port
forwarding.
