[Serusers] Call connections take too long

My setup:
I use a proxy for dialing.  The proxy has a static IP
address.  The callee can be behind a NAT or on a
static IP address and the call will take a long time
to connect.  
I have watched the traffic at the caller end and it is
the same (long pause).

Any other possibilities?

Thank you for your time.
