My wife indeed uses linphone on an iPhone (and her laptop behind a
NAT). Your idea of using a VPN (or a global IP address) never
occurred to me, and I appreciate it. Being unfamiliar with VPNs, I
wonder if setting up a VPN on a smartphone (or behind a NAT) is easier
than getting linphone to work behind NATs.
