The corresponding ports of the router are forwarded to the computers ones. My accounts on ekiga softphone are (ekiga, iptel and megavox).

This router buisyness is so difficult. I can not really help there. Did 
any of you try to call 500 ekiga net?

> Latter again I could call her but according to the codecs prefference the call should be with the speex 8hz codec and I wan't with that. It was with celt! but I couldn't speak nor hear. Then I disallowed celt codec and voila! I got the comunication with the speex codec! 
I guess calling each other worked here because you were using the 
internal IPs. In your logs the sequence of codecs seems ok. I do not 
know why CELT gets a higher priority all of a sudden. But that you could 
not hear each other once you agreed on CELT is significant. We had 
already a short discussion on compatibility of different CELT versions 
on the devel-list, see the final statement of Gregory Maxwell: 
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/ekiga-devel-list/2009-July/msg00093.html 
. Win32 Ekiga uses CELT 0.51 at the moment as I thought there may be a 
bit of compatibility using an older version. But now I see that CELT is 
a "no go" at the moment and will take it out of the Win32 build.
Thanks
Michael
