Re: [PLUG] VOIP on the road


Just remember free public wifi isn't always connected to a hard line. It could be wifi via a 3g celluar network. Bandwidth would be the limiting factor there.

On a public hotspot, you don't have the privilege of forwarding ports.
However, if you use a STUN server, it should work just fine across
NATS. Unless they block the needed ports entirely, which I doubt.
