Re: [VoiceStick] BYOD configurations needed
I have a Sipura SPA-2000 ATA successfully working using the configuration shown here:
»www.voipconfig.com/voicestick_config.htm
After entering the settings shown in the link above, make sure you have:
NAT Keep Alive Msg: $PING
Use OB Proxy In Dialog: no
Register Expires: 3600
The same configuration should work with the Linksys PAP2.

I would LOVE to use them with Asterix, Axon or 3CX. So the question is, can they set the credentials required for authentication to be 'friendly' towards those programs ? |

2 edits | As far as SIP configurations go, the following settings are the only settings I needed to change in a Sipura SPA-2000 reset to factory defaults to have my Voicestick account functioning correctly:
Proxy: i2telecom.com
Outbound Proxy: 206.165.50.116
Register Expires: 3600
Use Outbound Proxy: yes
User ID: Voicestick DID (including leading 1) 1xxxxxxxxxx
Password: VoiceStick Password
Voicestick recently shut down the accounts of users that used Asterisk (including mine). I have gotten approval from Voicestick customer care to use consumer level SIP devices (Sipura SPA-2000, Linksys PAP2, Grandstream GXP-2000, etc.), but they still do not allow Asterisk.
Now I wish they would just fix the problem of disconnecting incoming calls when the calling party disconnects; when the calling party hangs up, Voicestick's servers send the SIP device no indication that the calling party has hung up, thus, transmitting silence to and from Voicestick's servers until the callee (the Voicestick user) hangs up their phone. This creates BIG problems if you are using an answering machine, or an FXO card in conjunction with Asterisk.
I have also noticed that I cannot put calls on hold; For example: using the FLASH button in the case of an analog phone used in conjunction with an ATA, or using the HOLD button on an IP phone like the Grandstream GXP-2000.
If they would fix these minor issues, Voicestick would be a leading BYOD provider.  |

Re: [VoiceStick] BYOD configurations needed
said by w8sdz :NAT Keep Alive Msg: $PING I just noticed the above $PING string. On a PAP2v1, $NOTIFY is the default string. Has anyone tried this $PING string on a PAP2v1 besides the OP and how is it different from the default string? Does it send out less packets?

Has anyone tried this $PING string on a PAP2v1 besides the OP and how is it different from the default string? Does it send out less packets? If you look at a packet trace, the effect is pretty much the same, at least to VoiceStick. The number of packets sent depends on the NAT Keep Alive Intvl setting on the SIP tab. The default is 15-seconds. In either case the adapter sends a Sip Notify or a Sip Ping packet every 15-seconds. VoiceStick returns a packet that says Sip Bad Request. At least this is how it works on my SPA1001. The purpose, of course, is to keep your router from closing the sip signalling port. If your router doesn't close your port you probably don't need to send the packets at all. |
