Maximum retries exceeded on transmission

Hi

I get this message on my asterisk debug. The Asterisk debug is as follows:

I don’t know if this error is relevant to my problem I am having. since the beginning of the week I am getting alot of dropped calls. The call holds for 5 to 30 sec and it takes along time to connect to the other side of the call sometimes the call just cuts out without getting to the other end.

Your help will be appreciated, thanks you in advance.

Did you follow the instructions in the message?

In any case, you have not included the packet that was being retransmitted.

Based on the timing, you are probably not getting an ACK back. The most common cause for that is bad NAT settings.
