The rtp timeout is usually about 30 seconds. If rtp is only 1 way then the
calls will drop after 30 secs. This is usually nat/firewall related so a
packet dump helps to confirm. I also find using tcpdump to write a pcap
file that I can feed into wireshark is helpful as wireshark has great sip
decoding options. It will trace the callflow, pull out relevant packets,
replay audio. Its very helpful

Is there anything different about these users and their setup? Or who they
are calling?


Not all, just some.  After looking at the log files the only
