Lots of people have that sentiment. You do not have to use it as your
firewall, but it eases things especially for the automatic VoIP
configuration (due to NAT issues and the surrounding configuration
needs by asterisk).

I personally use it as my gateway to my router. That means, I have to
manually forward the VoIP relevant ports, and have to let asterisk
know, how to find out my external, public IP address.

Putting LinuxMCE at the border nullifies the need for all that.

It was a hardware problem, we found out.

Do so, and if you get stuck, check out the IRC channel #linuxmce at
irc.freenode.net (you can also click on the Chat button in the forum
at http://forum.linuxmce.org)
