asterisk users - May 2006 - registration at Voipbuster times out

Hi, 

I am new here on this list, and have a problem of which I hope that somebody
here can help me with it.
I have a Voipbuster account, with which I would like to make phone calls via my
Asterisk PBX. If I let X-Lite register directly at voipbuster.com, everything is
OK, but if I let Asterisk register there, it says "registration for
XXXXXX@sip.voipbuster.com timed out, trying again", even though all
settings are precisely as in X-Lite (username, password, and sip-proxy
settings). Also I am sure the right ports are forwarded or open, both in my
router and in iptables (firewall of Asterisk server). The log files of X-Lite
and the output of "sip debug" show no differences, except this one:

    Contact: Remko <sip:XXXXXX@[INTERN IP OF X-LITE-PC]:5060>

in the log of X-lite and the following line in sip debug: 

    Contact:<sip:s@[MY EXTERN IP]>

I don't know whether this is a significant difference. 
For further info, here is my sip.conf: 

bindport=5060 
bindaddr=0.0.0.0 
externip=EXTERNIP 
localnet=192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 
srvlookup=yes 
maxexpirey=180 ; Maximum length of incoming registration we allow 
defaultexpirey=160 ; Default length of incoming/outgoing registration 
language=nl 

;register to the voipbuster service 
register => XXXXXX:YYYYYY@sip.voipbuster.com 

;Add an extension for our softphone 
;Copy this and change 1234 into 1235 for a second softphone (etc) 
[1234] 
type=friend 
username=1234 
secret=ZZZZZZ ; this is the .password. Change this !! 
callerid=Remko 
notransfer=yes 
insecure=very 
host=dynamic 
;canreinvite=no 
context=default 

[1235] 
type=friend 
username=1235 
secret=ZZZZZZ; this is the .password. Change this !! 
callerid=Remko 
notransfer=yes 
insecure=very 
host=dynamic 
;canreinvite=no 
context=default 

;Configure the incoming calls connection 
[voipbuster-in] 
type=user 
host=sip.voipbuster.com 
secret=YYYYYY 
realm=voipbuster.com 
fromuser=XXXXXX 
fromdomain=sip.voipbuster.com 
context=incoming 
canreinvite=no 
insecure=very 
qualify=no 
nat=yes 
dtmfmode=inband 
disallow=all 
allow=alaw 
allow=ulaw 
call-limit=5 

;Configure the outgoing calls connection 
[voipbuster-out] 
type=peer 
host=sip.voipbuster.com 
username=XXXXXX 
fromuser=XXXXXX 
fromdomain=sip.voipbuster.com 
secret=YYYYYY 
realm=voipbuster.com 
call-limit=5 
dtmfmode=inband 
context=default 
insecure=very 
qualify=no 
nat=yes 
canreinvite=no 
disallow=all 
allow=alaw 
allow=ulaw 

I am completely at a loss, hope somebody can help me here! 

Yours sincerely, 
Remko

Hi Remko,


If the account is working properly most of the time registration
timeouts are because of wrong time settings. So check the time and date
on your server. :)

Maybe a silly question but can you ping sip.voipbuster.com from your 
asterisk box?

Second question and probably the answer, what is your dial statement in 
extensions.conf? 
Contact:<sip:s@[MY EXTERN IP]>

One way to test is to create a dial statement like this exten = 
_.,1,Dial(SIP/username:password@sip.voipbuster.com/15555555555)

The s in the above is suspect.  Turn on SIP debugging in the asterisk 
console, make a call and see whats up.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro

do you have any problems with audio connection
mine connection is just fine but audio from voipbuster.com is poor 
(breaking)
with any other SIP client audio is OK

It varies, but usually the audio is fine...
