Here are some notes from our experience of the BT supplied HomeHub router.

A BT HomeHub has a built in VoIP Client that works as a DECT base station. This has been known to work with the AA VoIP Service.

FIREWALL icmp check (1 of 2): Protocol: ICMP Src ip: 81.187.30.111 Dst ip: 192.168.1.254 Type: Destination Unreachable Code: Port Unreacheable

This was a setup, where the HomeHub was inside the network being NATed by another ADSL router. In this case, the HomeHub was only acting as a wifi access point and phone.

This may be found in the web interface under:

Configuration --> Application sharing --> UPnP

==Homehub 5, disable SIP ALG==

NAT can always be a problem with VoIP. SIP ALGs can get in the way by mangling the SIP packets. If you have problems, try disabling it. (or even enabling it if it is already disabled!)
