Sorry, I think i rushed the last answer but if you could answer that one would be nice

How are you handling the calls? Just with kamailio/rtpproxy? Because i am also using asterisk for calls with dial application and for nat issues (with kamailio behind nat) i am using also kamailio/rtpproxy for outside. All this with just handling users (registration and location) in the subscribe and location table of kamailio.

That is why i am not using sipusers table of asterisk because of nat was behaving weird using it that way.

Could it be possible to use both tables without expecting a different behaviour? Or is not, in the end, a good idea and i need to keep users in sipusers table?
