well, that was my thinking -- hardware.  

If you have just a SIP *client*, ekiga, what-have-you, can it connect out 
with SIP to SIP fine?  because, if so, that would be a powerful litmus 
test.  If that test works, that establishes it's not the network.  (Yes, 
I know you tested bandwidth already, but I'd at least try SIP to SIP 
client to see if it matches Skype.)

Once you know that SIP to SIP works, speaking for myself, I'd just do a 
clean install.  If you've run out of troubleshooting steps, that's the 
one to use.


HTH,
