From an earlier post by me... PLEASE NOTE, this works with the Motorola ATA
box that Vonage sends to some customers...
=== BEGIN ===
I use Comcast high-speed internet (3Mbit)
The ATA is the Motorola one provided by Vonage.
My configuration is as follows:
Comcast
|
Cablemodem
|
Monowall (Generic PC-HD version)
|
Motorola ATA (bridged mode!) - Telephone wall outlet - several phones
|
Network switch
|
Several PCs
Monowall configuration
======================
Alias:
Name Address Description
Vonage 192.168.1.2 Vonage Phone
NAT:
If Proto Ext. port range NAT IP Int. port range Description
WAN UDP 5061 Vonage 5061 Vonage
WAN UDP 10000 - 10011 Vonage 10000 - 10011 Vonage
Rules:
Proto Source Port Destination Port Description
UDP * * Vonage 5061 NAT Vonage
UDP * * Vonage 10000 - 10011 NAT Vonage
Motorola configuration
======================
WAN IP Address Assignment Static
IP Address 192.168.1.2
Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway 192.168.1.1
DNS Servers 192.168.1.1
0.0.0.0
DHCP Server/NAT Disabled
By setting the ATA between the firewall and the network switch, it never has
a problem with me hogging the bandwidth. I don't use traffic shaping and I
can have Vonage at full 90kbps (best quality) while downloading dozens of
files via bittorrent, eDonkey, etc... fully saturating my bandwidth... all
while still on the phone with perfect clairity.
The trick is to not use the Motorola's NAT. Set it up with a static IP and
then use proper NAT rules on monowall.
To still browse the Motorola box when configured this way, you need to have
your computer's TCP/IP set to normal 192.168.1.xxx IP, netmask and gateway
*AND* add a 192.168.102.xxx IP and netmask (no gateway though)... then that
computer can use a browser to 192.168.102.1 to configure the motorola box if
needed.
Please let me know if this helps anyone.

Subject: [m0n0wall] Vonage configuration with m0n0
Hi,
I just got my vonage kit and wodnering what do i need to do to start
working using my firewall. I've just a month with m0n0 installed and
it works great with my network, however as i just receive my voip kit
from vonage i can't make it work with m0n0.
I already did a test and i connect my vonage phone diectly to the
internet with no m0n0 and it works normally but once I connect it
trought m0n0 it doesnt work.
Do i need to open a port or do i need to configure something else on
m0n0 to use it with my vonage phone?
Thanks for your time and patience to give me a hand with this.
