Re: [Ekiga-list] had to reset the router for ekiga to work

Shawn I think you're right...it's mostly a problem with the NAT thing after acquiring a new public address

would you think this is router specific?

i'll check out a different router and see

Did you simply try resetting the router before defaulting the settings ?

Just a guess, the router did not properly delete NAT (Network address
translation) or SIP ALG (if it has ALG function) tables after the last
time your PC used Ekiga. Reset cleared the tables, maybe the reset was
what cleared things, and not changing the settings ?

Or perhaps the router was configured to allow SIP/H323 to your PC, and
your PC was this time using DHCP, received a dynamic IP, and thus, did
not complete registration ?

Just guesses, I've seen both quite often.
