Have you tried configuring STUN just to see if that helps the issue? No, I haven't. Voip.co.uk's notes say to not use STUN. I could easily forward the packets using my router though. I wouldn't have thought that was the reason for outbound calls not working, but I may be wrong. Is there is long list of ports, or is it just the ones listed in the Siemens phone's configuration page?

I'm struggling to get my Siemens Gigaset working with Voip.co.uk's settings. I've tried an old account with Voiptalk and that works. For what it's worth, I got a Gigaset in for evaluation and had it up and running with voip.co.uk within about 10 mins. Regrettably, I now have to go into 'useless mode' as I do not have the phone to hand to check its settings for you - but have some cheer that it *should* work!

I don't understand what ALG is. ALG - application layer gateway. Software in the the router that is meant to help SIP work through the NAT. In practice, most SIP ALG's are fundamentally broken and do more bad than good.

The reason was because our local LAN uses IP addresses in the range 192.1.1.x and these aren't private addresses apparently. It's a historic thing and one that's difficult for me to change. So, I've set the phone to use a its default static address of 192.168.2.2 and adjusted to router to use 255.0.0.0 as the network mask, to allow it to route everthing on the network. Thanks for all your help - it's much appreciated.

Tim I use voipcheap for sending occasional faxes with a Fritzbox. I have not changed any settings to accomodate fax. HOWEVER, expect it to take multiple attempts and a lot longer than you would expect. I find it OK for faxes every now and again but nothing more. There is a previous thread in the group about Vonage's "dedicated" FoIP service, but it doesn't sound like it's any different to my setup. I think they call this emerging technology, but converting data to analogue audio to IP packets and then back again sounds like a recipe for disaster to me. Someone just needs to write software that emulates a fax modem and then simply connects to a SIP provider to make the call and send the fax.

I am going to use it with VoipDicount. At the moment I am using VopiDiscount via a Linksys PAP2T (see my previous post "Starting Again") but now want to integrate my BT Line. Setting up the SPA3102 to use VoipDiscount will not be a problem as there are some configuration settings on their page. However I want to set it up so that all landline calls to the UK, Singapore and Malaysia go out via VoipDiscount and all others go out via my BT Line. For this I think I need to use Dial Plans (but not certain!) If the SPA3102 is anything like the PAP2 it will come with zero instructions. Am I right that I need to use dialling plans and can anyone point me to a page that explains how I can achieve this? Thanks The manuals can be found on the Linksys website. Also in here: http://www.provu.co.uk/support.html The dialplan can be complicated but it just requires a bit of patience to get right. cheers, Paul.

More like someone needs to write a working t.38 implementation for Asterisk. Software that emulates a fax modem and then sends the data over an IP connection using SIP will just run into all the same problems an ATA with a fax machine plugged into it using g.711 codec currently does. The problem is a fax transmission relies on near-perfect timing at either end which is fine with analogue phone lines or ISDN. But IP (and therefore the Internet) is a best-effort service which was designed from the ground up with little or no consideration to synchronised timing at both ends of a connection. cheers, Paul.
