[Asterisk-Users] Broadvoice + incoming call works only for ~2 minutes

[Woojin Lee]

Hi, Roger

I think that may done the trick!  I've put the "qualify=100" and asterisk 
answered the call after about 5 min!  The asterisk box is on public ip, also 
running firewall, so I thought it wouldn't need any nat related stuff, but 
may be I was wrong...

Thanks!
