Spa3102 sipgate setup

Incoming trunk calls are going straight to voicemail and direct calls are failing. The following is the SIP debug trace. You will see a couple of and errors. The problem is with calling the extension. I can use the extension to call other extensions and trunks, but calls to the extension are rejected. This looks like an authentication issue. This will mean that the log files and last call details have the correct date and time. Don't worry about this otherwise. If you have used a crossover cable, remove it and connect your computer back to the LAN again.

Check that you can still access the Internet. Remove the cable from the SPA's Ethernet socket. You should see the configuration page again. You should not need to use the Ethernet socket again. Well, the bad news is there are lots of other differences, such as the pitch of the dialling tone, and the SPA, despite being shipped with a British mains plug, has factory defaults of the USA. So we'll be spending some time reconfiguring it to sound and act like a British telephone line.

Bear in mind that the dialling tone and ringing tones you'll eventually get when everything is done, will NOT be generated by your local BT telephone exchange like it is now. The SPA will generate its own ring tone, its own dial tone, its own call waiting tone, everything. It'll only connect to your BT line when it needs to, such as an incoming call.

So in order for your existing BT telephone handsets to work, and more importantly, your wife not to complain about the phone doing odd stuff, we need to make sure it acts as much like a BT line as possible. Other settings were taken from the Voxilla. Thank-you all.

If you intend to use the SPA to do more advanced things such as voicemail or call redirection, you'll probably want this to be Yes, but that's beyond the scope of this document. If you intend to use the SPA to do more advanced things such as voicemail or call redirection, you'll probably want a shorter value, but that's beyond the scope of this document. If you've unplugged the SPA from your phoneline and handsets, plug it back in.

If this doesn't work, try unplugging the power to the SPA If it works when the SPA is off, the problem is with your configuration. If it doesn't work when the SPA is off, the problem is with your cabling.

Once everything works, we are now ready to start routing calls over the internet. This means that lots of companies can all use the same protocol. This is also the protocol that your SPA uses. Most of them will have rates far cheaper than BT. Google for "voip sip calls" and pick one that has the cheapest rates for the destinations or types of call you make most often.

For example, my wife makes a lot of 01 and 02 calls, but I occasionally call my sister in Holland. Remember that BT's national and local landline calls are pretty cheap even on the cheapest tarrif. Many VOIP companies offer bundled, inclusive or free landline minutes for a period if you spend a certain amount, so pick one of those. Some examples to get you started: WebCallDirect.

Some providers may take this in Euros or US Dollars. I currently use WebCallDirect, so I will be using this in my configuration examples. These can usually be found on the FAQ or technical support pages. Some providers will allow you to use your own telephone number, as well as and instead of your username, to log in, so that your Caller ID will be shown to people you call. This is required in order for your name to show up as the caller when you ring your friend's mobile phone, for instance.

If you do not do this, your Caller ID will probably be withheld, and people you ring won't know that it is you who is calling.

You may need to do some special kind of registration with your VOIP provider to confirm that you really do own that phone number. For example, WebCallDirect require you to download and run their MS-Windows application and use the account settings options to confirm your phone number with a test call.

Once you've done this, you don't need to use the downloaded application ever again - which is good as far as I'm concerned, as I use Linux most of the time.

This is not the case for us, as we want to route , , and calls via BT still. Also we may, at a later date, want to route different calls via more than one VOIP SIP provider one may be cheaper for UK calls, another cheaper for international calls.

Therefore ignore any instructions that tell you to fill in the Proxy and Registration section, as this will route all calls via that provider by default! Under Dial Plan, change this to: Dial Plan: x. You will also want to connect a regular telephone RJ11 cable to the phone port labeled "Phone". Once you have verified this please continue configuring your device with the instructions below. We recommend that you read each step through in its entirety before performing the action indicated in the step.

To do so have a pen and paper ready to write down the IP address. Please enter option followed by the pound key Write this number down Do not hang up yet. To enable web-based configuration: You will hear the menu prompt again after acquiring the IP address.

After hearing the prompt dial followed by 1 then 1 when asked to save the change. You should now have the IP address for your SPA as well as the ability to configure your device through your web browser.

Continue onto Step 2 below. This document guides in performing a firmware upgrade of SPA Note: Verify the model number and suffix of your SPA VoIP router before you try to update the firmware to ensure that you get the correct file. If the suffix is -NA, proceed with the upgrade. This is because the SPA configuration settings may be overwritten when the device is upgraded. The new firmware adds numerous functions to the router.
