I too am having the same issue with my VoIP phone for wfh. Company IT recommended to disable SIP ALG from router. Went through all settings on my router but could not find where to turn it off. On the phone with Cox tech support right now but person helping me doesn't even know themselves. Someone help please.

SIP ALG cannot be disabled on pano modem, because it's not a setting, nor is it enabled.
"What is SIP ALG? SIP ALG stands for Application Layer Gateway and is common in many commercial routers. Its purpose is to prevent some of the problems caused by router firewalls by inspecting VoIP traffic (packets) and if necessary modifying it."

SIP ALG is an advanced feature found in most firewalls such as Palo Alto and Cisco Firepower. Those devices have the ability to turn it off. An enterprise grade router might also have this feature. However these cheap all in one devices designed for home use do not have it so there is nothing to turn off.
