[Asterisk-Users] Any work around for ISPs that block port 5060 and69
Yes, there is a solution. Use IAX2 both on Server and Clients and bypass all that Port mapping crap. There are a few brands of VOIP Phones available in the market that can do IAX2.

Is there any way around this problem or are they forever doomed to VOIP since their ISP is pretty much the only ISP company on that island. So far I was able to have them change their default SIP port to 6070 and any packets coming in on that port on my asterisk box I would redirect to port 5060. That seem to be working fine, expect that they can make calls but cannot receive calls. I think part of the problem might be that when asterisk tries to initiate a call to their sip phone it tries on port 5060 instead of 6070 even though I have specified in the sip.conf that their port is 6070. Has anyone else encountered this problem and was able to resolve it? My other option is to change my asterisk box to work completely on a different port, but I am reluctant to do so since the majority of registered users for now do not have an issue with port 5060 being blocked by their ISP. Thanks for your help.

I'm a service provider and my system does not requior 5060. See if your provider can use other ports. I would think asterisk server can be remapped. They can't block them all!
