[asterisk-users] IAX connections broken

[Michael Munger]

Not likely. 
#1, I have a public IP on that firewall. 
#2. If I block 4569 at our firewall, then it goes from closed to
stealth. If I forward the port, it goes from stealth to closed.

The iaxping tool (http://www.bpvn.com/asterisk/iaxping.zip) has no
problems pinging the box from the lan, and our test machine can make an
IAX connection to the box. From outside the network, however, it times
out.

It has to be a NAT problem, but forwarding doesn't appear to be working.

Yours,

    what if your internet provider is blocking inbound 4569 ?
