[Asterisk-Users] UDP Sip Data: GS Grandstream - remote office
Hello all, Tried to get remote office working and found out that the GS Budge Tone 100 takes the ip address inside the UDP packet data (SIP) that asterisk writes to.The Asterisk server is currently setup with a ADSL ZyXEL PRESTIGE 600 series router. My isp does dynamic ip assignment - so I cant tell asterisk what to write down in the sip packet as the ip changes on every reboot / day. I Have tried using a sip proxy and this caused only more confusion (sip proxy on same box as asterisk/ sip port forwarding and so on - messes up the LAN configuration). So then I decided whether to use rp-pppoe or debians pppoeconf to make the Eth show the public ip address so that the GS Budge Tone 100 can then take the SIP ip address and then get is routed correctly accross the internet to the asterisk server. Did the whole thing only to realise that I have no idea if the router/modem is configured for bridge. So I spent the lat day and a half trying to get connected with the modem (even in windows XP) and still no connection. So what I am asking is, has anyone had a similar issue. How did you solve it... and if anyone would like to help me just a bit (googled and still nothing) to allow the asterisk box to be awaire of the public ip. -- Kind Regards Etienne
