Trouble with VoIP
 
I have recently signed up for a VoIP service from www.Voipuser.org (which, I can't praise high enough, and highly recommend you all get over there and have a look at how the charge ;) ) and have it working perfectly on my Nokia N95... the call quality is clear, and the delay is minimal and not nearly as annoying or temperamental as other "free" services such as Truphone and Voipcheap...

But I simply can't get it work properly with my N810..

After what seemed like days getting the darn thing to connect to the SIP server (using Internet Phone) finally I get a connection..

The trouble is, while I can hear the ringing while placing a call, I cannot hear anyone at the other end when the call is connected.

Is there something stupid I have missed out when signing my device up?
Or is there a better SIP phone that I can install on the N810?

I have Gizmo already (and don't see anywhere where that will allow me to subscribe to a 3rd party VoIP provider), and Skype (same), but is there something else?

Oh, an don't get me started about the default contacts app on the N810.. what the heck is that about?? The thing is useless.. is there another DECENT contact manager available that I can either import or Sync from Thunderbird, Gmail, Hotmail, Messenger (ANYTHING WILL DO!).. but I guess I have to start another thread about that yes??

1. Is your router blocking any ports used to transport the call (e.g. UDP ports used for audio)

2. I have the Gizmo client on my N800 configured to login to my Asterisk server - there is an option when the Gizmo client starts to login to a 2nd account. You may want to try that.

I've been having problems too, these last few weeks. Suddenly, the default client cannot talk to Ekiga any more. I get a "606" rejection (which I turned up with wireshark on my router -- would be nice to get messages from the client!). The Ekiga agent on my desktop works fine -- which kind of rules out the router....

Thanks.. don't think I have any configuration issues with my router as I can make calls on the N95 on the same network without any problems (incidentally that is configured via the Fring app, which would be a nice addition to the N810 artillery of apps out there ;) )

As for configuring with 2nd account, will try that and let you know what happens.

I have used Fring on a N800 (not my favorite), you are not able to use it on N810?
