Port Forwarding
 

I have run two tests from sites to test my voip setup and they both tell me that my port 5060 is blocked??? - I am using Spa3000 and Siemens Speedstream6520 modem. - I have tried everything from forums/google etc but still get the same result - as far as I can tell I have forwarded everything correctly - anyone got any ideas what I am doing wrong - thanks bill

The tests will run a connection between your PC and an internet site to simulate a phone call, but perhaps because you forwarded port 5060 manually in your router to the private IP address of your SPA-3000, it is making it impossible for it to run the test on that port. I've seen that happen but then they tend to run the test on a different port and it works. In general, it is not necessary or even desirable to forward ports in a router to an ATA when setting up the STUN settings correctly will accomplish it. Try to use the STUN settings on this page

and then remove manual forwarding and then run the tests again to see what it does. Hope that helps.

Tried without the ports forwarded in router and Windows/McAfee firewalls disabled and still get the same result - port 5060 blocked -I have SPA setup exactly as described in wiki - I now have a different modem Billion5102 which enables me to use Nat enable =yes without losing registration on SPA - Bill
