I'm having trouble with this. Gizmo will receive the calls, but the general internet call is not picking up nor dialing out if gizmo is closed. Also Extras/Rtcom cannot connect to update.

I used the method posted without the rtcom update but its not working. There is some discrepancy in the settings too.

Gizmo says sip number is sip:1xxxxxxxxxx@proxy1.sipphone.com

The linked setup thread above says to enter xxxxxxxxxx@prox1.sipphone.com

What are other people doing or why isn't rtcom updating?

This was covered around post 35, It's proxy01.sipphone.com
From home I use auto-detect, at work I need to specify ports. Kind of annoying if I wanted to use this for incoming calls. I just start gizmo when making a grandcentral outgoing call, and haven't found it practical for incoming calls.

I really don't get this, I got it all set up just the way set out and all work fine except all my outgoing calls take credit off Gizmo, what am I doing wrong?

Wow i tried this and when i dial (poke one of my address book contacts)from my grandcentral account it dials the gizmo number then rings my cell phone only once, it shows on my cell caller id that th call is from my grandcentral number, but does not connect after only ringing once. When i dial directly from my n810 'new internet call' program it will place the call and shows my gizmo number as the incoming call, however i can only hear from the receiving side and i cannot hear anything on the n810 dialing side. i reproduced this peculiar behavior it over my bluetooth in case it was a router issue--any ideas? thanks

I think you have to start the call from Grand Central. Like putting the # in the address book of Grand Central, then selecting it and call (pick your Gizmo #).

I would like an invite please... Thanks

So does this only work on landlines only in the US or can it be used to make long distance calls. And how about cellphones? Does it work with this?

if at all possible, i would like a invite as well
it seems like its too good to be true for now
my email is
pathogen13@gmail.com
so if anyone would be so kind, send an invite my way please

If anyone has a spare invite that they would bestow on me, I would be most appreciative.

Thanks,

ET

UPDATE:

I received an invitation from GrandCentral, so now I have 9 additional invites. Please let me know if you need one.

It works like a regular phone, though I'm not sure how'd they charge you. Calling anyone's cellphone will take minutes from them (as always, unless they have weekends free or after 9pm or some sort like that). Calling someone's landlines is usually free. It's the person making the call that gets charged usually. But I'm not sure how'd that work out.

Btw, does anyone have trouble logging into the www.m.grandcentral.com website? It redirects you to www.grandcentral.com/mobile but it won't let me login on my n800 but it lets my laptop and desktop do it. And I really hate using the flash interface, so slow.

Edit: Hmm it works sometimes.. Also oddly now the default internet call app is saying that it can't connect. Proxy01 must be down I guess.

Edit2: Pinged it, it's up.. but for some reason it says authentication failed even when it's right..

I'm having a problem connecting (through Sipphone, apparently) with my N800/OS2008. The green disc (presence) icon in the Status Bar is red with a slash through it and when N800 boots up, I get "network error" and "authentication failed" associated with internet calling. I'm glad you reported a similar problem - I'm going to assume it's a problem on their end for now.
