I think that you will find this covered in the archives. I use a
Handytone-486 upstream of my main router and Ekiga on several machines
on the local network. Just use the gconf editor to assign a different
port to Ekiga (in my case several different ports for each copy of
Ekiga) from the Handytone.

It all works perfectly. Contact me off list if you have problems.
