Seems like it works out of the box: http://www.kamailio.org/docs/modules/1.5.x/nathelper#id2468157 force_rtp_proxy([flags [, ip_address]]) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ klaus vallimamod abdullah schrieb: > Hi Alex, > > I had the same exact issue some time ago with a nated server and I > solved it with a hacked mediaproxy.
