you said:
I dislike about the VOIPo architecture is the requirement to port-forward UDP ports 5004-65000 to your device for reliable service
I don't have that set up (and things are working (relatively) good). How critical is that? I heard that mentioned somewhere as recommended.
And I did see you say you aren't techie, I'm always wondering how things DO work without port forwarding of the 2 ports. It's just 'recommended' to forward those ports.
Seems it should or shouldn't work. Either the router keeps out the inbound packets or they ride in on the reply to packets sent out from inside the LAN.
I need / want to learn more about Voip (and I guess voipo - that forwarding of a wide range of ports isn't part of 'true' Voip? Voip and voipo are different?
Thanks!
