I have for some time now had a sipgate account, and the majority of the time it works reasonably well. I do have one problem though... When I call my sipgate number, and then hang up after a couple of rings, the sipgate line keeps on ringing for a long time afterwards, sometimes over two minutes? Any ideas why this happens and if I can alter any config settings to stop it happening? Its...

Hi all, If I have an existing DECT cordless phone and want to be able to use this for receiving incoming calls both from SIP services and PSTN, I am looking for some form of "gaddit" that will switch the incoming call from either service to the DECT phone. I also want to be able to make outgoing calls and select either SIP or DECT on a call by call basis. The box/application does not have...

Is there anyway to bridge a POTS line over IP? By that I mean a way of extending the line from A to B over an IP network? Something like having an FXO ATA at one end and an FXS at the other, and then configuring them to talk to one another? Could do it with an asterisk, I suppose - but I was thinking of a more solid-state, seamless solution. Almost like an IP extension lead - something simple...

Does anyone know what the differences are between this: http://tinyurl.com/862nd And this: http://www.sipura.com/products/spa1001.htm Apart from the massive difference in cost?

The usual blurb on websites dont tell you how good some of the...

Just a little query from a friend actually. This is the problem: Several months ago a friend of mine registered with 18866 to make savings on calls, he has since signed up with sipgate and got himself a second number to use on voip. He has a sipura1001 (I think), and he uses it for outgoing calls to 18866 using the same account he signed up for several months ago (using his BT line...

I've been trying to configure my SPA-3000 1-port FXO and FXS Phone Adaptor to work with my landline and VoIP, without success. Anyone please advise if there's an idiot's guide available?

If you are not at your computer and it is not in your field of vision, and a call comes in (assume you are using a softphone), you have to have the speakers turned on with the volume up to know someone is ringing you. You pick up the call and don the headset, your call is then a mess of feedback until you turn the speaker volume down. The obvious way to avoid this is to use a VOIPphone or ATA,...

Does anybody have any experience using their IAX termination service? For mobile calls and 08xx numbers they are cheaper than sipgate and since I run aterisk, using IAX would make more sense. (although their international and gergraphic calls are more expensive). Do they support IAX2? How reliable is their service?
