Does Orbtalk work with Voxalot?
I have done a forum search for "orbtalk" and the results suggest that orbtalk does work with Voxalot.
However, I have never got it to work! Help! I am reasonably certain I have entered the correct information in Voice Service Providers. (I deleted first entry and re-entered it making sure that I entered the correct password, for example) I set SIP Register to yes ( I am a Voxalot Premium member) and I understood that this is necessary to receive incoming calls. SIP Register has always failed so far. |

I have had it working (registered) for the last 3 months, receiving calls:
Server: talk.orbtalk.co.uk Port: 5060 Codecs (I don't think this matters much):ulaw;alaw;g726;g729;ilbc;gsm Use that 7 digit ID they give you as the UserName (717XXXX) I don't know if it'll work to make outgoing calls though, you may want to create another provider just for outgoing, don't SIP Register it and use their outbound proxy: nat.orbtalk.co.uk:5065 |

Orbtalk and Voipfone
I'm with Serendipitydawg viz a vis Orbtalk.
The latest email I have from Orbtalk Support is " We do not support Voxalot". I cannot make outgoing calls, registered in Voxalot or not. Incoming will work, sort of, if registered with Voxalot and calls forwarded in Voxalot to my Voxalot No. Similar situation with Voipfone ( posted elsewhere ). Outbound does not work, inbound will work via their *1 Sipbroker code but only calls originating from PSTN. Latest email I have from Voipfone Support is " Known issue, well down development list priorities". It may well be I'm twiddling the wrong knobs, but having done a lot work evaluating/choosing Providers, it would be really useful to be able to check them against a list of Providers known to work with Voxalot Premium, "approved" by Voxalot. Is this possible ? Best regards Grahame |

There the Global Provider list (they could extend that to show compatible/non-compatible), but support/compatibility for VoXalot is completely on the provider end, in that VoXalot is set up to accept just about anything SIP.... |

As I was typing my last post I was actually waiting for Orbtalk to re-reister, having done as I suggested and deleted the original entry and then re-entered all my details, taking extra care to get the password right.
Imagine my suprise when it actually registered!! Inbound calls to my DID ( a regular geographical number) now work perfectly with Voxalot call forwading. Result!! No intention of making any outgoing calls |

Inbound, I grant you, was always a problem until they supported Sipbroker. Now that too works well for PSTN-originated calls. ataboy |

Orbtalk and Voipfone
emoci - Thanks. Do you mean set up a secondary Orbtalk profile ( proxy, unregistered ) alongside the registered primary Orbtalk profile in Voxalot or delete the primary profile completely ?
Serendipitydawg - Thanks. I too can get Orbtalk to register and pass through calls using Voxalot Call Forwarding. It's dialling out that's the issue. ataboy - Thanks. I was using sip.voipfone.co.uk ( not registered ) but alas no calls out. I agree PSTN via *1 does work but I need the SIP part as well. More midnight oil I guess, any thoughts gratefully received. Would still like a Voxalot "approved" provider list. Best regards Grahame |

That's exactly what I meant. Set up a second profile, alongside the first and use the outbound proxy for the server value for the second profile. Another reason for outgoing calls not working may be Codecs, if you left your codecs to the default voxalot order, try changing them to this in your original (registered) OrbTalk profile: ulaw;alaw;g726;g729;ilbc;gsm (It's worth trying this, before setting up a second profile) Proxy: talk.orbtalk.co.uk Outbound: nat.orbtalk.co.uk:5065 |

Orbtalk and Voxalot
Hi emoci,
Set up the second profile in Voxalot Providers. Host is nat.orbtalk.co.uk:5065, register No. This does not work for call out either i.e busy signal. I also tried your codec order but Voxalot returned the errror message "codecs not valid". I have left it set at ulaw;alaw. Thanks for your help, any other thoughts greatly appreciated. Best regards Grahame |
