RHC: I  "reserved" the Duo IP address within the DHCP pool of my
router and opened the DMZ zone to that particular local IP address.
Should solve any dial in problems. The Nettalk unit itself is password
protected so that's all any hacker will ever see.

In searching the Nettalk forums, I did find one alarm dealer who
claims the unit doesn't kiss off properly using Contact ID or SIA, and
he had to fall back to either 4/2 or 3/1 to make it work. Yet your
experience seems to say otherwise. I haven't yet done the connection
and testing to confirm one way or the other,so...we'll see...
