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.  |
