Bent, my DSL provider may interrupt the connection once per day, in the early morning hours. At that time, I expect my public IP address to change (the WAN interface of my router does use DHCP), but not normally during the rest of the day. Also. while the Ekiga calls dropped, I usually had a chat session open, including webcam, and there was no problem with these data streams. And no, I don't think bandwidth is an issue here, because the voice connection was quite usable while it lasted. No dropouts, better quality than international phone calls through cheap call-by-call providers.
Even if my address would change, Ekiga should find out (using STUN) at least after I restart the program, right? - But restarting Ekiga did not allow me to register again.
