I don't see how.  I am logged into the ATA through the router and I
don't lose the connection.

Can't find an AGL setting.  There is a SIP checkbox.  Pretty sure I
have that turned off but I can try to get someone to check.

I have that flag turned on.

See above.

There's only one router.  It is the ADSL device as well.

I tried with and without.  I am using stunserver.org.

I don't think it does.  Both the server and the ATA think that they are
still registered but when a call comes in there is no ringing on the
line.  If I split dial it rings the cell phone but I still hear no
ringing from the caller side unless registration is actually turned off
from the ATA and a "sip unregister" is issued.
