Re: [Ekiga-list] registration failure



Could you start ekiga like this:
ekiga -d 4 2>output
do your job, and when the problem arrives, ctrl-c ekiga and send us the latest ~1000 lines from the output?

Bent,

my DSL provider may interrupt the connection once per day, in the early morning hours. At that time, I expect my public IP address to change (the WAN interface of my router does use DHCP), but not normally during the rest of the day. Also. while the Ekiga calls dropped, I usually had a chat session open, including webcam, and there was no problem with these data streams. And no, I don't think bandwidth is an issue here, because the voice connection was quite usable while it lasted. No dropouts, better quality than international phone calls through cheap call-by-call providers.

Even if my address would change, Ekiga should find out (using STUN) at least after I restart the program, right? - But restarting Ekiga did not allow me to register again.

Hello Yannick / others,

It would seem sometimes it works, but often it does not. Yesterday, I got disconnected in the middle of a call and was not able to register even after restarting Ekiga.

Note: settings must have been OK; I had an active connection, and I did not change anything after loosing it.

Today, it worked again -- without changing any settings. Once. Then, I got disconnected, and right now, I am still unable to register to Ekiga.net (timeout).
Just a thought: Could it be that your external IP address has changed?
It is not said explicitly, by it appears that you have a dynamic IP
address. It might be that the DHCP lease expired during the call and
that you got another IP from your ISP's DHCP server. I don't know the
STUN mechanism well enough to be able to say that it should be able to
follow such a change in IP address.
