What is the WAN address of your pfsense box? Public or private?

@chpalmer said in Voip no audio:
You are not double NAT'd are you? VOIP was not originally designed to be behind NAT when it first surfaced. NAT was hacked in later. Double NAT can be double trouble.
Create a firewall rule allowing your PBX server to your clients behind your pfsense box.
No port forward.. just the firewall rule.I have as rules both LAN and WAN for IP of IPBX that is in the Amazon.
I have no port forwarding as it is external.
Many articles say to configure outgoing NAT
-
But you seem to be avoiding the main questions.. Are you double NAT'd?
-
@Stewart Stewart says it right
if you have registration, ergo you have SIP initialization,
so if there is no sound then the RTP ports will not pass...
most VOIP devices have configurable RTP ports, look for something that is not a bumper and pass it through the NAT (port forward)@chpalmer "Are you double NAT'd?"
and his question is also very important

RTP faces 2 big problems: SIP ALG and NATting. SIP ALG was created to assist in allowing SIP to traverse networks properly by rewriting the ports in the headers. I've troubleshot countless VoIP problems and I've never, not once, seen SIP ALG do anything but break SIP. At this point it's almost like it becomes a selling point for ISPs. NATting is an issue in that the packets have internal and external IPs and ports listed in the info packets. If they get NATted more than once then those get jumbled. It's a terrible mess.
Ultimately you must figure out these 3 things:
- Is your WAN a public IP or a private IP? If it's public then you're not being double NATted. If it's private then it is.
- Does the modem have any firewalling in place? Regardless of the rest of the stuff, having the firewall on can interfere.
- Is the modem performing SIP ALG? If so, it must be turned off.
The step after that will probably be a Wireshark trace. Start capturing on the WAN, place a test call, hang up, stop the capture. Then you can view the VOIP info in Wireshark and see what's happening. Who is your SIP provider?
@DaddyGo Is that a Grandstream inferface I see there? That looks an awful lot like the old GXW4108s I used to use.
-
the company that "sold" the service configured ports 16000: 33000 for RTP.
About duplicating NAT, I didn't understand.

ok you won
in some places in our radio studio we use these "beauties" Grandstream HT801 és 802, for older analog phones, as ATA
this is because the Cisco STA112 cannot operate from POE powertheir GUI is evil, but otherwise I think they have been working without problems for 6 to 7 years...
-
@DaddyGo I ran a ton of HT502s and never had a problem. The GXWs needed to be rebooted once or twice year but otherwise worked well. The Sipura/Linksys/Cisco SPA ATA models have been less reliable and cost a bit more. Towards the end of us using them they got a new GUI but I wasn't in them much after that so I'm not sure the difference. I don't think that the newer firmware had the yellow background with the orange headers, though, so that may help with the interface.

@rafamello Can you re-upload? All I'm seeing is text showing ""

1.Is your WAN a public IP or a private IP? If it's public then you're not being double NATted. If it's private then it is.
private
2.Does the modem have any firewalling in place? Regardless of the rest of the stuff, having the firewall on can interfere.It is disabled
3.Is the modem performing SIP ALG? If so, it must be turned off.
It is disabled -
@Stewart "he GXWs needed to be rebooted once or twice year but otherwise worked well."
now a built-in feature in the GUI for configurable reboot ... juppppijuhe
every two weeks on Sunday at dawn restart and work really well -

Would it be possible for you to bridge your modem and get your public IP address on your WAN?
-
SIP makes it easier... to find his way, especially if you have STUNT in the system
RTP is not and if you have dual NAT then it sucks -
-
listen to the good advice from @chpalmer :
Would it be possible for you to bridge your modem and get your public IP address on your WAN?++++edit:
VOIP, behind dual-NAT can take several hours for even a seriously trained IT guy too -

I am seeing another environment that has this configuration for me to test.

@DaddyGo it's difficult, you will end up losing the customer.

do you write from Portugal or Brazil?

SIP ALG
now with the public IP on the WAN the IPBX support is claiming that the internal IP arrives, I believe that I would now have to do a nat out ... I already have the image in the will it be correct?
