[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk, SIP and NAT: Help needed!

I've been googling and talking with Libretel about my
setup and the fact that incoming calls to my asterisk
box through the Libretel number reach my box (I hear
the greeting being played) but then don't accept DTMF.
Here is a rough diagram of my setup:
Asterisk |
server | NAT <------------ Libretel
| router
|
Note that there are NO SIP devices, just the Asterisk
box itself.
Apparently my asterisk server is trying to accept
audio on port 31347 at 192.168.0.2 (which is,
obviously, the internal IP address). I'm already
forwarding port 5060, so I presume that's what's
allowing the incoming call to hear my recorded
greeting.
>From google, I see that I can:
a) Set my externip address to the address of the
NAT router
b) Set nat=yes
c) Somehow mangle headers???
d) change the dtmfmode in [general]
Okay, so I've done all of the above:
a) I've set the externip to the static IP address
of the router
b) I've set nat=yes in the [general] context (I'm
only interested in incoming calls right now)
d) I've tried each of the dtmfmode options in the
[general] context
As for c) I'm not sure what needs to be done there.
I've also, additionally forwarded ports 10000 through
40000 from the router to the asterisk box (Libretel
said the box is listening to audio on port 31347, so I
needed at least to ensure that's open, and got a
little generous there).
I'm really bewildered. Especially as IAX was so
straightforward to set up and get running!
Thanks for any help!
Cheers,
Maya
Attached is my current sip.conf:
--------------------------------------
sip.conf
;
; SIP Configuration for Asterisk
;
; Syntax for specifying a SIP device in
extensions.conf is
; SIP/devicename where devicename is defined in a
section below.
;
; You may also use
; SIP/username at domain to call any SIP user on the
Internet
; (Don't forget to enable DNS SRV records if you want
to use this)
;
; If you define a SIP proxy as a peer below, you may
call
; SIP/proxyhostname/user or SIP/user at proxyhostname
; where the proxyhostname is defined in a section
below
;
; Useful CLI commands to check peers/users:
; sip show peers Show all SIP peers
(including friends)
; sip show users Show all SIP users
(including friends)
; sip show registry Show status of hosts
we register with
;
; sip debug Show all SIP messages

;promiscredir = no ; If yes, allows 302 or REDIR

;
; If regcontext is specified, Asterisk will
dynamically
; create and destroy a NoOp priority 1 extension for a
given
; peer who registers or unregisters with us. The
actual extension
; is the 'regexten' parameter of the registering peer
or its
; name if 'regexten' is not provided. More than one
regexten may be supplied
; if they are separated by '&'. Patterns may be used
in regexten.
;
;regcontext=iaxregistrations
;
; Asterisk can register as a SIP user agent to a SIP
proxy (provider)
; Format for the register statement is:
; register =>
user[:secret[:authuser]]@host[:port][/extension]
;
; If no extension is given, the 's' extension is used.
The extension
; needs to be defined in extensions.conf to be able to
accept calls
; from this SIP proxy (provider)
;
; host is either a host name defined in DNS or the
name of a
; section defined below.
;
; Examples:
;
;register => 1234:password at mysipprovider.com
;
; This will pass incoming calls to the 's'
extension
;
;
;register => 2345:password at sip_proxy/1234
;
; Register 2345 at sip provider 'sip_proxy'. Calls
from this provider connect to local
; extension 1234 in extensions.conf default
context, unless you define
; unless you configure a [sip_proxy] section below,
and configure a context.
; Tip 1: Avoid assigning hostname to a sip.conf
section like [provider.com]
; Tip 2: Use separate type=peer and type=user
sections for SIP providers
; (instead of type=friend) if you
have calls in both directions
externip = router.static.ip.address
; Address that we're going to
put in outbound SIP messages
; if we're behind a NAT
; The externip and
localnet is used
; when registering and
communicating with other proxies
; that we're
registered with
; You may add multiple
local networks. A reasonable set of defaults
; are:
;localnet=192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0; All RFC 1918
addresses are local networks
;localnet=10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 ; Also RFC1918
;localnet=172.16.0.0/12 ; Another RFC1918 with
CIDR notation
;localnet=169.254.0.0/255.255.0.0 ;Zero conf local
