Main solutions to FUP on Betamax accounts at user side:

1 - With a soft phone: there are some soft phones that handle more than one line. Some of these are Twinkle (Twinkle - SIP softphone for Linux) and Zoiper (Free Zoiper softphone for windows, mac & linux, webphone and SDK). These are general purpose soft phones which handle two or more SIP accounts.

2 - Some hardware phones are also capable of registering with two or more SIP accounts as for example Linksys SPA 941.

3 - Another suggested solution works with a dial plan on the hardware phone but you must have the same credentials at Voxalot and Betamax accounts (user and password must be the same at both accounts). Then, on the phone dial plan configuration, you add a rule as the following one: '<#,:>xx.<:@sip.voipbuster.com>'. Then, when you which to dial through VoipBuster, you start dialling the '#' key (you will listen to a different dial tone) and then dial your number in international format, ending with the '#' key again. The call will be routed through VoipBuster despite you are using an hardware phone capable of one SIP registration only (and no one SIP gateway). In these example, if you also which to receive VoipBuster calls, you must register your SIP phone with VoipBuster and forward your Voxalot account (the above rule on your dial plan should also be modified, ending with '<:@us.voxalot.com>' instead of '<:@sip.voipbuster.com>'), through SIP, directly to your phone on a similar manner explained on the SIP Broker FAQs (forwarding direct calls to your SIP phone). Another way is to forward your VoipBuster account to Voxalot using your Voxalot iNum number and leaving your SIP phone registered with Voxalot.
