Is it okay to leave the Uverse gateway setting for Obi in DMZ plus mode ?
RevKev:
Using OBiTalk, from the OBi Dashboard, click on your OBi Device. Then OBi Expert Configuration, OK, Enter OBi Expert. Click ITSP Profile A General ( or Profile B) and ...
STUNEnable (checked)
STUNServer (the name of a valid STUN server - may be provided by your service provider)
X_STUNServerPort (default 3478 or that provided by your service provider)
Click submit.
Other ports you can try forwarding...
Application name: SIP
Protocol: UDP
Port range: 5060-5061
Application name: OBiTALK
Protocol: TCP & UDP
Port range: 10000
Note also that your service provider may use alternate ports for either or both SIP and RTP. If so, you'll need to adjust the port forwarding accordingly. But if that were the case, you probably had to set those ports in the OBi as well.
One way you may be able to tell what ports are being used is if you can set your gateway to log incoming traffic on the DMZ (while the OBi is still in DMZ mode). The check the log for the ports being accessed when you make or receive a call.

I will have to try the 5060-5061 forwarding once I have a second person here making the test calls.( 5060 is the LocPh. proxy server port)
The gateway is supposed to log all traffic but I could not discover anything there after I made a call. Last thing it showed when the incoming audio was blocked I guess.

darned localphone! it doesn't want to play nice with u-verse's 2wire modem. even if i put the obi in dmz mode, the only way for the called party to hear me is if they put their line on mute.
without putting the obi in dmz, the other party can hear me fine even without putting their line on mute, but i can't hear them.
so, while i'm on u-verse (which i plan to switch soon), i'll just have to use callcentric. no problems for them although localphone still has better rates to the location i call often. bummed!

Possibly, there is a problem at Localphone unrelated to your network. From your GV or cell phone, call a Localphone access number, enter your account number and pin, then dial your problematic destination. If that call has audio problems, it's unrelated to your setup; put in a ticket with Localphone.
If the above test is ok, try again, this time from your Callcentric account, dialing 011883510008268800 (Localphone iNum calling card access number).
If that is also ok, try this workaround: Add the destination number to your Localphone Contacts, if you haven't already done so. To your Localphone list of your phones, add the caller ID that your Callcentric account is sending. On the Local Numbers page, change your Location to International (iNum) and you'll see an iNum corresponding to your contact. Call that number using Callcentric, and you should be directly connected. Cost is the same as using Localphone directly; the Callcentric leg is free. Though latency will be somewhat worse, there shouldn't be any other quality degradation.

So far, I have tried everything recommended here with the exception of the STUN server, for which I need more info from Localphone. No success. Due to the time zones, I will have the answer from them tomorrow and hopefully the last ditch effort helps.
One interesting thing is, what I mentioned before , that I cannot register a X-lite soft phone at all, not even in the DMZ mode for the computer ( which I got out from in minutes).
So for now I am leaving Obi in DMZ.
Interesting is indeed that Callcentric seems not to have those problems while Localphone, Anveo, etc manage to frustrate everyone without an IT engineering degree.
The biggest scandal is off course , the semi monopolist ATT and their service and hardware.
