This release was not setting an IP address for any calls going through the call forwarding system, which is why calls forwarded via Betamax were failing.

This is odd as I didn't have a problem on calls I tried, and would have had an IP address that if visible they may see quite a bit.

Out of curiosity would this be technically feasible?

Browser address? You mean at the time of sign-up for the Voxalot account or what other time?
Not everyone has a fixed IP address, and some use proxies, and thus sometimes my address will be different for secure and non-secure pages.
So this proposal would tell Betamax an IP address that doesn't identify me to them at all, and might have even been blocked by them for fraud a few months after I signed up.
