VoIP calling on the N82?

I had a few questions about the internet calling on the N82
1. How does this work? How do you set it up?
2. Is it free? Do you actually get to call long distance, to Europe, China, etc. areas for free?
3. Is there a catch to it?
4. Can I set up another program, like VoIP Stunt to go with my phone?
Thanks

Hi again,
They are the same but different. Fring will allow you to make Fring to Fring calls or mobile phone to mobile phone calls via VoIP. If you already have a Skype account, Fring will allow you to access Skype while on your mobile and use VoIP to make calls. With Skype you can purchase minutes to make what they call: Skype Out calls. This is basically a call to a telephone number be it landline or mobile. Gizmo5 is virtually the same but that they use an open standard while Skype's is proprietary. Basically they are the same and do the same. I use them both as back up. Most times they work but there are times when like with anything else they have problems. So when one fails the other works and I can continue to talk.
Summary:
1. Fring -------> Skype = VoIP (Free and paid options)
2. Gizmo5 ---> (Free and paid option)
Go to the sites I gave you and have a look. There you will find more info.

  • Making a VoIP call with the Cisco 837 ADSL router

    I would greatly appreciate if could please provide some technical assistance to my questions below:
    Is it possible to make a VoIP call between two 837 ADSL Cisco routers over a 1Mbps ADSL broadband connection?
    If so, can I configure this VoIP connection using either a PPPoE or ATM WAN link?
    Is it possible to make a VoIP call using a Cisco 837 Router while simultaneously surfing the Internet? In other words do I need two public IP addresses i.e. one for accessing the internet and one for making the VoIP call or is one static IP address obtained from my ISP sufficent.
    It is possible to configure QoS parameters (e.g. RSVP, Voice precedence, Voice codec selection) on this 837 router using PPoE or can it only be done using an ATM WAN interface?
    Does the Cisco 837 router support both the H.323 and SIP communication protocols? Do I need to purchase a certain IOS operating system version for VoIP calling?
    Does the VoIP dial peers need to be configured with both a POTS and VoIP phone numbers or is only one number required?
    Do I need to obtain a special VoIP number from my VoIP service provider? or can I use existing POTS numbers or made up numbers within the dial peers as this situation involves making a private VoIP call between two branch offices using 837 ADSL routers and not via a VoIP service provider.
    Finally, can I use POTS ordinary telephones with the Cisco 837 for making VoIP calls or do I strictly need to purchase VoIP phones?
    My apologies for the number of questions asked here but I currently need to know the technical ability of the Cisco ADSL 837 as I am thinking of employing these routers in my company organisation.
    I await your feedback in due course.
    Thanks,

  • N97: making voip calls via the GSM mobile

    Hi All;
    I am facing a problem that my Nokia N97 that is working with VoIP (via the SIP), is only working if I am using my wireless internet in the home (via the access point), but when I try to do the call using my GSM internet service provider (we call it EGO and in some countries it is GPRS).
    Some other mobile, they support VoIP using the wireless access point or the internet via the GSM (mobile) service provider ...
    So how can I fix this issue on my N97?
    Regards
    Bilal

    I have the same problem: I can make and receive calls using my router but not through GPRS allthough i did set AWCDMA' and 'UAWMAC' to ON

  • New FIOS customer with dropped VOIP calls and Internet connection

    I am a new FIOS customer. Got my 50/25 connection a week ago, switching from a TWC 6/1 connection. Ever since the new connection, I've had numerous issues.
    My VOIP (Ooma) connection constantly drops and re-connects during conversations
    I've had random Internet connection losses, which picks up again after a few minutes
    My home alarm starts chirping every once in a while
    I've contacted Verizon several times due to these problems and have received varying answers with no resolution of the problem.
    The first time I spoke with support, the tech logged into my router and changed the WiFi channel saying that would fix the problem. It didn’t.
    The second time I contacted them, the tech ran a bunch of diagnostics and said everything looked fine so it must be an IP address conflict with my devices, because I had a couple devices using static IP addresses. He said everythinf should be DHCP and the last two digits could not be higher than 99 (192.168.1.99). He said FIOS does not support 3-digit numbers at the end.
    So I changed all my devices to DHCP and ran some online VOIP tests. It showed a packet loss of 2-5% and MOS score of 1 (which is bad). I was still getting dropped connections, so I disconnected all devices and connected just one computer to the router and tested again. I was still getting packet loss.
    Then I called support a third time, this time the tech said there were no 2-digit IP restrictions and that he was detecting there was no UPS baterry backup for the ONT which was probably causing the problem, so he dispatched a field tech to my house.
    Today the field tech came (same guy as before), he took one look at the box and said it was too close to my Electric meter and the RF from the meter was causing interference to the FIOS connection and resulting in dropped connection.
    He moved the ONT to another location and said that should fix it.
    Well, I'm still seeing packet loss and low MOS score when I run the VOIP test.
    I don't know how much of what the techs are saying is true and how much is made up stuff.
    Has anyone had similar issues and have thoughts on solutions or likely causes for dropped VOIP calls and connections? Could RF be causing this?
    I thought going from a 6/1 Cable connection to a 50/25 FIOS connection would be awesome, but this has turned out to be a nightmare, and I may have to switch back to cable if the problem is not resolved.
    I would appreciate any help.
    Thanks!

    Don't know where the packet loss is happening. I ran the VOIP test on myspeed.visualware.com and it shows a packet loss of 2-5% at different times and a MOS score of 1.
    The report says MOS should be around 4 for good VOIP calls.
    The Verizon tech who came to the house just blamed the electric meter box for RF interference and move the ONT farther away.
    My concern is that I'm getting different answers from different techs at Verizon.
    Regarding IP addresses. The Router shows a DHCP range from 192.162.1.2 to 192.168.1.254 as available for devices on the network. So, if I need to assign a static IP to a device should I use a number below 99 or above 151?
    Thanks!

  • Spa3102 would not forward a voip call to pstn line

    Good morning.
    I've done the implementation provided here http://community.linksys.com/t5/VoIP-Adapters/SPA-3102-and-softphone-to-
    make-calls-via-pstn-line/td-p/326390 .
    It is a way to use for outgoing calls a given pstn line from anywhere I have internet (voip to pstn).
    The spa3102 is connected to a router (with an active DHCP server and ip 192.168.1.1) from where it takes the internal
    ip (192.168.1.3).On the same network is also a computer , connected to the router ( with ip 192.168.1.2). The spa3102
    is set to bridge mode and thus inactivates the function of the router (on SPA3102), and it functions as a  simple
    network device . I have  done port forwarding (from the router) to 192.168.1.3 (SPA3102) for the port 5061 (PSTN
    LINE) ( but for 5060 for the LINE 1 also). I want to make calls from a voip softphone (x-lite 4) to the SPA 3102 and
    this to forward the voip calls to PSTN line to which it is connected. In x-lite the SPA3102 is set as a proxy so that
    i can type the phone number I want to call without being followed by the SPA3102's ip each time ( eg on  x-lite I
    give call number 2101111111 instead of 2101111111 @ wanip: 5061 where wanip is the external ip of the router).
    When x-lite is running on the computer that is on the same network with the SPA3102 everything works as expected. A
    voip call is made from x-lite ( using as a proxy the wanip everytime, or even for test purposes the dyndns domain
    that i set up for this reason), this call is passese PSTN line and the phone of the called party rings . At x-lite
    COMES indication "call established ".
    The problem occurs when I do the same procedure from x-lite installed on a computer belonging to another network (
    e.g. in another building with its own internet connection , own router, own computer , etc. ) . Always using the
    wanip the x-lite makes the voip call to the SPA3102, writes "call established" ( meaning it connected to SPA3102) but
    never routed the call to the called party ( the SPA3102 did not forward voip calls it receives to the PSTN line ) .
    Trying to find what 's wrong I've tried to disable all firewalls (soft and hard from all involved machines ) . The
    behavior is the same either the computer that makes the successful calls is connected to the network directly to the
    router  or through the port "ethernet" on the SPA3102.
    What is the difference in these two voip calls to the SPA3102 and the one  " triggers "  it to forward the call to
    PSTN line and the other does not ?
    Thanks now for any ideas you give .

    The audio sound problem is more than likely also associated with the overall addressing problem initially encountered.  As you may know, using the sip protocol the sip signalling exchanges ip addresses to be used for both the sip signalling and the exchange of rtp sound packets.  In addition there is an exchange of port numbers to be used for the exchange of rtp sound packets.  The sound is exchanged by two separate streams of packets, one stream in each direction.  The result is an ip address and port number for the rtp packets flowing from the SPA3102 to the softphone and a different ip address and port number for the rtp packets flowing from the softphone to the SPA3102.
    In your previous posting you mentioned that you "set the minimum  EXTernal rtp port at the sip tab".  Changing the "EXT RTP Port Min:" is an unusual change to make and in my opinion would only be made in special circumstances. Actually, I ran some tests and I'm not sure exactly what that setting does.  In my tests it didn't appear to affect the rtp port number used in a predictable manner.
    The common changes to make for audio problems typically would be to setup a STUN server.  A STUN server is an external server that echos back to the initial sender the external ip address and port number that the STUN server received with the message received by the server.  This allows the sender (SPA3102 or softphone) to determine its external ip address and external port numbers for both the sip signalling and rtp packets.
    A STUN server is commonly recommended to be setup with the following settings in the SPA3102:
    PSTN Line Tab:
    NAT Mapping Enable: Yes
    Sip Tab:
    Handle VIA received: yes
    Handle VIA rport: yes
    Insert VIA received: yes
    Insert VIA rport: yes
    Substitute VIA Addr: yes
    Send Resp To Src Port: yes
    STUN Enable: yes
    STUN Server:
    The following web page has a list of "Public STUN Servers"
    http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/STUN
    You are using CounterPath's XLite softphone.  stun.counterpath.net  is a STUN server on the list.
    I see XLite also has a setting to use a STUN server on the "Topology" tab.

  • How to make voip calls on ipad1

    Hi, can anyone tell me how to go about making cheap voip calls on the ipad 1 as it only has an ear plug point and not a microphone one? being a pensioner I`m trying to save money!! thanks in anticipation.

    Although I don't own all of the iDevices, I do know from experience that my iPod Touch (2nd gen up) and the iPads + iPhones can indeed make VOIP calls from various services. The harder part is finding a way to listen and talk conveniently and understanding your VoIP service capabilities.
    1.
    The VoIP software - presumably something you already use today on a computer and have an account/telephone number for.
    Skype
    Google Talk
    magicJack
    etc.
    The choices depend a lot on who you primarily talk with and what they use (conventional telephone, Skype, etc)
    I prefer a full fledged SIP (VOIP) clients like iSIP or my personal favourite the Bria VoIP phone software with a VOIP telephone number from a standalone VoIP provider like voip.ms but that may be too complicated a setup for some. It does provide the best telephone experience however. I'm not sure which players are strong in the UK.
    Some of these only work when you have a a WiFi connection but I regularly use the Bria phone on my iPad while driving (3G and LTE both work fine).
    2.
    The audio connection - the easiest is a combined headset/microphone like the simple Apple earpiece or other third party ones that have both ear and microphone in a single plug (you can tell which is which because there are 3 rings/4 gold contacts on the plug). Ask around - many iPhone users have these included in the box and never use them, preferring more expensive after market models).
    Another more sophisticated way is to use a bluetooth headset of any kind. These can be very comfortable and work well, but are not as easy as simply plugging in a headpiece. Batteries need charging and the bluetooth connection can be finicky sometimes.
    A third option around the home is to use one of the newer telephone sets that has bluetooth connectivity to the ipad/iphone - this is elegant but also more complicated than you would probably enjoy unless you're handy with the technology.
    I'd recommend you have someone familiar with the Apple world who's a bit techie, can help you think through your requirements around calling patterns and volumes and clearly understands that you likely prefer ease of use over saving a few pence.

  • Lync 2013 Stress and performance tool - VoIP calls

    I want to test only VoIP calls using the Stress and Performance tool.  Does the tool make real SIP calls to the Front End server?  It seems like its only simulating a VoIP connection and not doing a real SIP call --I don't see the SIP SDP setup
    or RTP media stream.  Please confirm this. 
    I configured the Load Configuration Tool ( UserProfileGenerator.exe ) to only use VoIP and configured for Load Level: medium.  I only see between 2 and 4 Voip calls in progress at any given time.  How can I increase the calls to 50+ simultaneous
    calls? 
    For the UC/PSTN Gateway test, it says I need to run this on 2 clients.  How does this work?  I ran the RoutingRules.ps1 script, and it changed the voice routes and broke the current routing.  This is a lab setup, so I'm only setup with
    4 digit dialing between all clients and an Asterisk trunk.  It doesn't seem like this will work unless I change to E.164 numbers for everything.  Can someone share more information on configuring this? 
    Thanks,
    Jeff

  • E61i is keeping WLAN connection after VoIP call

    I've just upgraded from E61 to E61i, upgraded phone firmware to 2.06 and... I'm very disappointed about some "improvement" in the Internet telephone. My SIP profile is the same as it was in E61, registration mode "When needed". The phone would register to SIP service and make calls okay. However, if a call wasn't answered and I terminate it with the "End" key, I can't drop WLAN connection. I would go to Internet telephone and disconnect from the service, SIP telephone icon would disapper but WLAN icon would be still showing. There is no way to get rid of WLAN connection, even if I'd drop it manually in connection manager it would re-appear in a second or so. The only way to disconnect is by switching phone off/on.
    What's amazing, if a call was answered, everything would be working as it should: once I disconnect from the service in the Internet telephone, both SIP and WLAN icons would disappear.
    Any ideas?

    I think it's a bug, too! I don't know how to repeat the upgrade process (the Nokia Upgrade says my firmware is up-to-date) but anyway, the upgrade process terminated normally... I don't think the problem is there.
    Note that the problem only occurs when I terminate VoIP call with the "End" key. If the call was answered and terminated by remote hangup, everything's fine.
    I never had such a problem with E61. In fact, I never had to use the "Internet telephone" application on E61. When I wanted to disconnect from SIP proxy, I just went to Connection Manager and terminated WLAN connection there.

  • Is there a way to answer Voip calls such as Bria while the phone is in locked mode?

    We are using Voip Apps such as Bria and Avaya OneX portal with Voip client enabled for SIP extensions back to Avaya IP Office, the issue is that Apple will not allow the answer splash screen to pop up while the phone is in locked mode..
    On a smartphone you can lock the screen (for security reasons) and to unlock you need to enter a pin or password to get access to the phone.  On a native cellular call the ability to answer the call is provided on the lock screen so that the user does NOT have to unlock the phone to answer the call.  What this customer/partner is complaining about is with our VoIP portion of the application when an incoming call comes in and your phone is locked you cannot answer the call until you unlock the phone.    The issue is that Apple does NOT let application developers bypass the phones locked screen.  Call it security or whatever you want this is something that don’t make available.  Like I mentioned other VoIP applications like Counterpath suffer from the same Operating System limitation.
    So a couple things:
    1.       This is not a Bug it’s an operating system limitation.
    2.       If this is that key for a user the only options are to turn off the lock screen or switch to Android (which does allow this).
    Totally agree with the customers complaint there just isn’t much we can do. We can try to complain to Apple again however that is not going to yield anything.
    Is there any way to get around this?
    Thanks,
    Kelvin

    I'm going to give up on Apple if they don't change this soon. It worked before, answered like a regular phone call (slide to answer). But since IOS7 i really dont like my Iphone anymore. Looking around for alternatives.

  • Problem transferring calls between Voip phones when the call is originated

    Hi,
    I have configured a gateway h323 (3640- 12.3) to communicate with Cisco Callmanager 3.3(4).
    On the H323 gateway I have installed one BRI interface and one FXS interface.
    Inside my network I am using VoIP telephones 7910.
    Originating calls in the Voip telephones which destination is the PSTN is working fine;
    Receiving calls from PSTN that destination is VoIP telephones is OK also;
    Redirecting or doing “Hold” on calls between VoiP telephones works but…..
    When redirecting or doing “Hold” on calls between a VoiP telephone and a call from PSTN I loose the voice stream.
    Apparently, all signalling is working fine because when redirecting the call originated in the PSTN from one VoIP telephone to another VoIP telephone, I can see the Calling number ID. Even if I use the telephone keyboard, I can listen the tones, but I have no voice stream.
    Please any help will be welcome.
    Thanks,
    David Costa

    I have tried different configurations and now it is working. The problem is that I couldn’t identify were the miss configuration was.
    Another question is: Can I use a codec with compression between voip interface of h323 gateway and the Callmanager or Voip phones to pass music on hold?
    Now I only pass music on hold if I configure G.711 on the voip interface of h323 gateway.
    Thanks,

  • Transfer VOIP Calls Between Cisco Desk Phone and Cisco Jabber For IPhone 9.5

    Does anyone know how to transfer an active voip call from a Cisco IP Desk Phone to Cisco Jabber for IPhone?  I can transfer a call from Cisco Jabber for IPhone to my Cisco IP Desk Phone no problem.  I put the call on hold and then click "Resume" on my Cisco IP Desk Phone.  However I cannot do the same but the other way around.  If I put the call on hold on my Cisco IP Desk Phone, I see "no active call" on my Jabber client.  The only information I could find slighlty relevant was using the Mobility Key/Remote Destination Profile feature however this defeats the object as this will forward to an external number, e.g. mobile and I just want to transfer the call within the VOIP environment between the two devices that are using the same directory number.
    I am using Cisco Call Manager 9.1(2), Cisco Presence 9.1 and Cisco Jabber for IPhone 9.5.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Kind Regards,
    Paul Parker.

    Did you ever find an answer to this ?
    I am seeing the same behavior and trying so see if I can put calls on hold and pick them up both ways also.
    The only answer I seem to have found is to use park instead
    That would/should work but I would just prefer to hold/unhold
    Just not sure why we would not be able to hold/unhold on what is essentially a "shared" line
    Does anyone have this working for them ?

  • SPA3102 - Line 1 - Outgoing VOIP calls fail

    I recently reset my SPA3102.
    After configuring Line 1; I am able to receive VOIP & PSTN calls on the analog phone attached but unable to make outgoing VOIP calls, I can only make outgoing calls via PSTN.
    My dial plan is as follows:
    (xx.|<#9,xx.<:@gw0>)
    I can call the outside world by dialing #9 and then the phone number but I cannot call any VOIP extensions, when I try, I do I get the busy tone after a few seconds.
    Please help, I’ve spend hours trying to figure this out to no avail.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thanks for your response,
    I finally resolved the problem after spending many more hours on it.
    It turns out the problem had nothing to do with my dial plan, it had to do with a service provider (SPA3102) I had configured on my asterisk box; adjusting the configuration on that solved the problem.

  • Only want VOIP calls, can it be made to do that?

    Don't want a phone carrier. Rather purchase directly and use for VOIP calls. Possible? If so, where to buy?

    Hi,
    No question is ever a dumb one. Currently there is a video chat in the Nightly version of Firefox for desktop and mobile I believe. However if you are looking to purchase a Firefox OS device with no carrier you would need an internet connection.
    Its expected to see this functionality in the later versions 2.0 or 2.1 Firefox OS, but is available in the Web API in the gecko.

  • Garbled VoIP calls on 1208, 1616 but not other pho...

    I live in the US but I am on business in Europe frequently. To save on local calls, I bought a pay per call SIM card and tried to use it in an older 1208. Result: Totally garbled communication when receiving calls from the US via VoIP. Calls inside Germany work fine (non VoIP). So I thought there is something wrong and went to a store and bought a 1616. Same problem. I do NOT have this problem when I use my (US) iPhone, and it is also not present on a Samsung (being called from the same number in the US). What is going on? This cannot be a Vodafone issue, as the carrier for me on my US iPhone when I am in Germany is also Vodafone.

    Try this:
    dial-peer voice 2 pots
    direct-inward-dial
    Without this command the router will not collect the digits coming across the PRI.
