Good question!

The link between the check box in preferences and the entry in gconf is 
written manually in ekiga code, so you cannot find it out automatically.

Just use gconf-editor (or look into .gconf/apps) and choose ekiga and 
look inside, you will find the entry corresponding to 
DisableNetDetection.  Tell me if you do not find it.

Note that changing it in ekiga is immediately visible in gconf-editor, 
and vice-versa.
