Hi Daniel

Thank you so much for your feedback.

I came upon the below post, but I'm unable to find the example Norman posted.
http://www.mail-archive.com/users@openser.org/msg01932.html

In short the end solution is:

  # If both clients are behind nat we can check to see if they are behind the same
  # external IP and optimize the media path to go directly between them
else if ( isflagset(2) and isflagset(3) )
        {
            log(1, "Both Clients are behind NAT");

            # Store the destination domain into an AVP
            avp_printf("i:450", "$dd");
       
            if ( avp_check("i:450", "eq/$src_ip/g") )
            {
                xlog("L_INFO", "Detected Two Clients Behind the Same NAT - Disabling Mediaproxy");
           
                # Do not use mediaproxy as the clients seem to be behind the same NAT
                resetflag(2);
                resetflag(3);
            }           
       
        }



I haven't tested yet, but would I be right in saying my config should look something like:


####### Routing Logic ########


# Main SIP request routing logic
# - processing of any incoming SIP request starts with this route
route {

       # per request initial checks
       route(REQINIT);

       # NAT detection
       route(NAT);




# Caller NAT detection route
route[NAT] {
#!ifdef WITH_NAT
       force_rport();
       if (nat_uac_test("19")) {
               if (method=="REGISTER") {
                       fix_nated_register();
               } else {
                       fix_nated_contact();
               }
               setflag(FLT_NATS);

               # If both clients are behind nat we can check to see if they are behind the same
               # external IP and optimize the media path to go directly between them
               else if ( isflagset(FLT_NATS) and isflagset(FLT_NATB) ) {
                                log(1, "Both Clients are behind NAT");

               # Store the destination domain into an AVP
                                avp_printf("i:450", "$dd");
       
                                if ( avp_check("i:450", "eq/$src_ip/g") ) {
                                                         xlog("L_INFO", "Detected Two Clients Behind the Same NAT - Disabling RTPproxy");
           
                                # Do not use rtpproxy as the clients seem to be behind the same NAT
                                                         resetflag(FLT_NATS);
                                                         resetflag(FLT_NATB);
                                }
                }
         }
#!endif
       return;
}

# RTPProxy control
route[RTPPROXY] {
#!ifdef WITH_NAT
       if (is_method("BYE")) {
               unforce_rtp_proxy();
       } else if (is_method("INVITE")){
               force_rtp_proxy();
       }
       if (!has_totag()) add_rr_param(";nat=yes");
#!endif
       return;
}
