Re: [Equipment] Useful Sipura tricks... said by halalani:I have just bought SPA 3000. I have two SIP accounts and need help as how to set-up the two to ring to one phone. Reminder:
This is NOT a questions thread, this is a "tricks" (solutions) thread. Please start new threads for questions, and only post "useful tricks" here.
That said, here is the "tricks" you can use to do this:
1) If both providers require you to be "registered" (to receive inbound calls), you are SOL, as the SPA-3000 only gives you one "registered" inbound VoIP line for receiving calls (the PSTN VoIP provider is "special", and can NOT be used for normal inbound calls).
2) However, if one provider will accept inbound "SIP URI" (VoIP address) calls, and the other provider will let you "forward" to a SIP URI, than it is easy. In that case, have the one provider "registered" as your "Line 1" provider, and have the other provider forward to the 1st provider. Voila, both will "ring your phone" (one directly, and the other via the forwarding).
3) If at least one of the providers allow you to forward to a SIP URI, but the other provider won't accept the inbound call, than you can try setting up this "trick" to forward directly to your adapter. It's a PITA to do, but it does work nicely once you get all the details right:

NOTE: The above details all talk about getting a 2nd/3rd/etc provider to "ring your adapter". However, since you only have one main provider on the SPA-3000, you also have to use some "trick" to call out via those other providers. The easiest way to handle that, is the SPA-3000 "gateway" slots. Please look at older posts in this thread for details about how to properly use the SPA-3000's "gateways"... |
