Finally, I made some home.net experiments (around 8.00 p.m. GMT):
Having one main PC connected to the router and  a laptop with a wireless
connection to the same router I was able to make a Skype  call between
the two: video and audio worked perfectly.
I tried the same with Ekiga without success (I took so many -d 4 logs
that it is now difficult for me to establish which one is the good one,
but I will repeat this test  and will follow up ASAP). This failure was
happening in very strange circumstances:

I did again the same test as said above and took the -d 4 logs  on
both computers so that you can hopefully understand why it is not
possible to achieve from Ekiga the same result that was possible from
Skype.
As far as I can understand perusing the logs, the problem arise from the
fact that the Laptop is 'seen' on the same internal IP assigned to the
PC (xxx.xxx.xxx.111, whereas it should be xxx.xxx.xxx.102).

To make the test with Ekiga I deleted the stun.ekiga.net string (using
gconf-editor/apps/ekiga/general/nat) and enabled a few 'services' on the
Inbound section of my Netgear DG834GT router Firewall Rules (in
substitution for port forwarding, not specifically foreeen in said
router).

I hope this topic is of some interest.

Thanks for your attention.
