Re: T-Mobile UMA does VoIP +
Make sure that your router is enabled for IPSec VPNs. |

Re: T-Mobile UMA does VoIP + Curve + International
I got the curve (and 2 year contract) specifically to use while traveling in the Dominican Republic and save on roaming charges.
First test on a private Buffalo router with WPA failed. Great wifi but no UMA symbol and all calls failed. Second test at an "open" public linksys hotspot. Again, access to google with the wifi but no UMA symbol and all calls failed.
Since the DR has both Orange (UK) and formerly Verizon (Canada) mobile carriers, I would have thought they had the UMA infrastructure.
Tech support had me reset, wipe data and install upgraded curve software without success. Trying to get them to FEDEX the linksys router to see if using their router will work.
Any other suggestions or ideas on the UMA issue? |

Have you been able to get the UMA connection to work anywhere? I am wondering if they didn't configure your account correctly or something. I have had no issues connecting to UMA over numerous different types of personal and Public Wi-Fi routers. |

| I am still in the DR so the Curve hasn't worked "anywhere" here. I suppose your connections were all in the US?
I have a California area code and read that there were issues with UMA in California but that the issue was resolved.
I am hoping the Linksys router, which is touted as being specially configured to support the T-mobile UMA, will work from the DR. I'll keep you posted if it works. |

Re: T-Mobile UMA does VoIP +
The Curve UMA is up and running from the DR. The T-mobile routers haven't arrived yet but having tech support activate hotspot@home seems have done the trick.
So much for making calls without hotspot@home and counting up the minutes. However, considering roaming is $2/minute, still not a bad deal. |

Chicago, IL | Yeah, all my connections are in the US. I usually use my home router which is a Linksys WRT54G. I also got the Linksys T-Mobile router free, but I haven't set it up. |

Just curious, to the person using it in the DR. Can you send/receive text over Hotspot@Home?

Curious about whether you had any issues setting up the 6086 Bluetooth to work with the Dock-N-Talk? I sent my Dock-n-Talk in for the firmware upgrade and purchased the Bluetooth module. I can get the 6086 to pair with the Dock-N-Talk. However, after I make or receive one phone call through the Dock-N-Talk, I lose all functionality to dial our answer incoming calls. There is still dial tone, but no functionality. When this happens, the bluetooth module blinks. I can reconnect by unplugging the Dock-N'Talk, which of course is a total pain, and is only good for the next phone call. I am wondering if there is a special setting on the 6086 that I need to update? Any thoughts? |
