Author VPN or Tunnel for VOIP

I am looking for a VOIP provider than uses VPN or some form of tunnel to get
over port blocking on SIP ports. I am sure I found one previously, but
despite using Google I cannot find it again. Does anybody know of one (or
some form of tunnel that could be used with existing providers).

I'm not aware of any that do this, but you could probably run Open VPN
on a xen/dedi/colo'ed machine in this country and connect to it from
wherever you are..

Voxalot.com did plan to introduce operation on ports other than 5060.
I don't know whether they have got any further on that.
In Feb 2007 Voxalot stated:-
"We are considering port redirects for:
4060
3060
2060
I dont think we will redirect port 80. "

As well as 5060 I think that pbxes.com works on ports:-
80
5061

I know both gradwell and voipfone provide outbound proxies that run on
ports other than 5060.


Most people who I know in managed offices and such like (with a
generally blocked firewall) run an openVPN session out to a server they
control. I know a good consultant who is good at these.

Snom370s have an openVPN client on the actual phone - this may help.

I think if you want to go to VPN route, you are best sorting it yourself
rather than a bundled package with VoIP provider.
