Let's say person A is using SIP provider A on an ATA, and person B is using SIP provider B on another ATA. Person A calls person B (both using SIP, but with "real" phone numbers, so not via ENUM). Which devices are deciding (comparing their codec priority list) which codec to use? - Provider A and provider B? If this is the case, can it be that the link between provider B and the ATA of...

I see from the AVM website that there is now an Annex A version of the Fritz!Box 7170, does anyone know who if anybody is selling it in the UK..? It's not on the Sipgate site and I can't see it anywhere else (although I must confess I've not looked hard, it's late and I've just got back from the pub..!) Ivor

Thought I'd better start a new thread rather than continuing to hijack someone else's... I'm looking for hardware to kit out a friend's new flat. She will have an NTL cable connection (no BT line, so no ADSL). After some further research, we want: 1 A VoIP ATA with multiple outgoing providers, one handset port will do, upstream PSTN not necessary 2 A router that will cope with cable not ADSL

I am in the process of signing up for a voip provider but I'm not entirely sure I understood what's on offer, hope you guys can help. voip.co.uk Does any here use voip.co.uk? If I buy the UK pack and if the 1.99 credit runs out, what is the minimum credit that I need to put in and whether the credit will expire after a period of time? voiptalk.org the prepaid silver account is 2.99/month. is...

I normally use VoipDiscount for out going calls via a Linksys SPA-3102. I have just got a Nokia 770 Tablet PC and it can run Gizmo as an IM/VOIP prog. It has the option to use a secondary SIP account and use that for outgoing calls. I have set the secondary account up to use sip.voipdiscount.com and inserted my username and password but it does not work.

I have just relinquished my BT fax No. (as part of a plan to move away from BT) and would like to transfer the number to Sipgate or other VoIP. Sipgate help pages still (?) say that it can't be done, but I thought that it is now possible ? Anyone in the know ? TIA Regards, Martin

Sometime ago I read (here, I think) that you could put in your dial plan (I have a Sipura3000) a way of routing a geographic number you are calling to test if it belonged to a VoiP supplier and if it did route it for free. Despite hours of searching I cannot find the answer. I am with voip.co.uk and I know that if I call some-one else with a voip.co.uk number then it's free. I now know a...

Anyone got any experience of audio quality issues. I have two accounts, one with Sipgate and one with voip.co.uk and a Sipura SPA2000 which I've only just managed to get working (since I changed from a Belkin to a Netgear router.) On Sunday evening when I got all working I was talking to a (local) friend using Sipgate, first through another voip provider and later through Sipgate (changes at...

I use VoipDiscount from home via a Linksys SPA-3102. Is there any (preferably free!) software I could use on my HTC TyTN Pocket PC to allow me to make calls via Wi-Fi when away from home? Thanx

wrote in message ... Tax included (19%) : £3.82 Total w/o tax: £20.0 Just what does this unscrupulous useless company think they are doing charging 19% VAT for their goods !not content with providing a totally useless service it looks like now they have started to rip customers of big time in other ways also .

Has anyone got any recommendation for a DECT handset to connnect to an SPA adapter...... a handset that can cope with VoIP Caller ID _Name_? Ideally, said handset would have a base which is separate from the handset's charger, although CLID Name is the more important feature. Cheers.

It seems like the voip.co.uk £20pa package will suit us fine (on 2mb ADSL) and they seem a nice company to deal with, which is very important. However their ATA, the *MTA V102* which is some sort of generic, will only allow one VOIP provider at a time. Is this a problem? Supposing at a later date we wanted to add another provider etc? Which ATA would you recommend, bearing in mind that...

BT for Business just told me that they can not provide gographic numbers with their VOIP service. When last I looked about a year ago others could. Is there a way of looking up which providers can provide 01509 geographic numbers. Better still suppliers that can accept a number transfer. -- John Owens www.goodviews.co.uk Fax +44 1509 890822

All, I am trying to use voipfone (with a snom 300) for the last 4 month, but unlike everyone else, I find them completly useless.... I am quite often on conference call, during which I intend to set my phone on mute if I am not talking. After about 2-5 minutes on mute, I find myself disconnected. Am I the only one in this case? voipfone support reckon this is a but at

I have a Sipura SPA2000 which, after much trying and finally changing my router, I have managed to get working and is brilliant. I have need to buy another ATA - can anyone give me sensible and objective opinions on what to get? Sipura seem to do the job but are relatively expensive (I got mine of eBay.) The Linksys PAP2 seems to be well priced but is it any good? Any other makes? TIA.

As some of you may know, with help I managed to setup my new Linksys SPA3102 to use Voip.Co.UK, but discovered it only had one separate phone line (I need to separate billing on voip accounts) and I thought it might be handy for our situation (shared house) if we were able to have different voip providers at the same time, now or in the future. So I had decided to back the 3102 and replace it...

Hello, can anyone shed any light on what may be happening? I have two Sipgate numbers (both with credit on them). The first (at home) is a Grandsteam BT101 which makes and receives calls perfectly to PSTN and other VOIP services - and I can call my other Sipgate number. The other (at work) is a Sipura SPA3000 again working well receiving and initiating calls to everything except one number -...
