Hi, Just stumbled on this site: http://www.freecall.com/en/index.html Wasn't sure if anyone had mentioned it / if people were aware of this other member of the Finarea / Betamax stable. Best wishes,

Anyone got any advice on a small issue. I need a new phone number which I can rely on so got a geographic number from Voipfone and patched that into my home Trixbox system which I am nd have been testing for a while. I can get it working for inbound and outbound, but what I am finding is that it appears to fail to keep its registration, after an hour or so if I try and call it I just get...

HI, I've just signed up for SkypeIn, and I'm using a Linksys CIT200 handset. Although the whole setup seems to work reliably, there's a noticeable delay between someone calling the SkypeIn number, and the first ring being detected and propogated by the Skype client. I make it that the caller waits for about 8 - 10 rings before 1 ring is heard at my end.

I've been on Sipgate for the last 3 months using an Actiontec router, all working OK. A couple of days ago the router got zapped in power cut/surge or whatever, I now have the above named netgear router, I've tried the manual and the Netgear website but can't find how to forward the ports needed for sipgate, phones ring but no audio. Can anyone explain how it's done, the old Actiontec was dead...

Have got an SPA 3000 and currently running voip.co.uk Am off to South Africa with work for the whole of September and would like your thoughts on this. Am trying to work out the cheapest way for my wife to call me whilst I'm out there. She'll be calling from a mix of both her mobile and our landline (can

Looking at the site it seems to be a usb phone. I use voipcheap at present, anyone know if it will work with this on my pc. Any guidance appreciated. ted

Hello, are these any good ? Can't find much in the way of reviews ... Cheers James

Hi All, Just a couple of teething problems I'd welcome your thoughts on. Have successfully setup SPA3000 on voip.co.uk. Has been working well for a few months. However, from time to time (it tends to occur more frequently on a couple of the numbers we call to) the call will automatically cut off and there is a rather annoying beeping noise. In addition (but not at the same time), incoming...

I use a Draytek 2880V & Sipura SPA-3000 for my VoIP now. I used to use Vonage when it started up. I have a Linksys Broadband Router with 2 phone ports model #RT31P2-VU which is locked to Vonage. Vonage never asked for it back & it's been in the loft for over 12 months now. Is there anything I can do with this router. i.e unlock it? If not, is it any use at all for anything? -- Simon

Hi, I'm new to SIP and searching for a SIP multimedia server. I'd like to store podcasts for example on a remote server and access them via SIP. I was also wondering if there would be a way to redirect radio and TV streams to SIP devices.

Hello, Is it possible to use a software sip phone over a dial-up connection ? I read that it was not possible but then my Voipbuster App has an option for dial up ? and if it is possible what codec would one use (If using anothe app for instance)? Cheers RJ

I live abroad and use Skype to call home. I tried Internetcalls.com as they claim to provide 300 free minutes per week. My parents phone line is connected to a fax/answering machine and when a call comes in, it checks if it is a voice call or a fax call. After this check there is a different ringtone. At this point Internetcalls.com cuts me off. I also noticed that as soon as a "normal"...

Hi I bought the Trust PH-2200 Internet Phone and am using it with Skype. It is a very good phone, however, when I have the phone connected via USB, no sound comes from the speakers of my PC. Everything comes through the phone. Which is a bit annoying when you're trying to play music on the PC! Is there any way to hear audio from my PC through the PC speakers while having the phone connected?

Hi Got my PAP2T today. Took about 10 minutes to get is configured so I can make outgoing calls using sipgate. Works well and is nice and clear. I cannot receive any incoming calls (they all go to voicemail). I have temporarily enabled all ports through the firewall to the PAP box to check this is not the problem (I will find out how to restrict this later). I do not use NAT. On my sipgate home...

Hi there, I just wondered if anyone had got it and what your impressions were of it. http://www.comet.co.uk/comet/html/cache/642_330841.html?cm_ven=Channelintelligence&cm_cat=Feed&cm_pla=Digital_Cordless_Phones&cm_ite=330841_PHILIPS_VOIP_3211S05

Received my unit from broadbandbuyer today and spent few hours cracking my head playing with the dialplan. Anyway, it works as intended and I could use my landline with voip now. Found few UK specific settings on the net but wondering why they're varies. I'll stick with the one found in voxilla for now. The great thing about it is.. no more confusion for the children and missus. I'm not going to...

I have an SPA 3000, that I just moved over to a line that supports Caller-ID, if I have PSTN CID For VoIP CID set in the SPA, when a call is passed through to asterisk from the PSTN, It fails to authenticate. Can anyone work out what I've got wrong?

Anyone else having issues with internetcalls.com today?
