 How's the e51 for VOIP calls ? Isn't SIP a bit pant in that it's v. difficult to configure with a firewall. Does IAX get round this problem ?   |

It is not that difficult to configure a Speedtouch ADSL Wifi router to pass SIP to a single phone Does IAX get round this problem ? You can use Fring to connect to a SIP account. This avoids the NAT firewall problems. -- Michael Chare |

Might be intersting to list all the IAX providers... Other than myself, I know Gradwell do it, and I think Voiptalk/Telapliant.. Really not sure who else in the UK... SIP is managable though - what gets in the way is firewalls/NAT routers which are too clever for their own good.. It is well defined, so can usually be "gotten round", depending on your application and the way the ITSP manages it. (Relying on STUN servers or an intelligent proxy - providing the end users router is not going to get in the way) And with IAX, you are severley limited in what you can use - Zoiper in the soft phone department, some ATL desk phones (I think), and maybe kiax, also a soft-phone, but I've never been able to make it work successfully. There's also the Digium ATA - the "Iaxy" which runs IAX... And Asterisk, of-course. Gordon |

Tesco Internet Phone do both IAX (gateway.tescointernetphone.com) and SIP (sip.tescointernetphone.com). And Asterisk, of-course. You can quite happily use a SIP phone to an Asterisk box which talks upstream using IAX. And vice versa. -- -- Michael "Soruk" McConnell Eridani Star System MailStripper - http://www.MailStripper.eu/ - SMTP spam filter Second Number - http://secondnumber.matrixnetwork.co.uk/ International Calls - http://calls.matrixnetwork.co.uk/ |
