Dial Plan for Italy wanted!!!

[moonshiner]

Someone can help me? 2 providers registered in my account: Voipcheap and Skypho. I would like to have this with my VOXALOT account:

whenever I dial an Italian landline number and cells, all calls must turn to Voipcheap, without me to dial international Italian code (0039). All Italian landline numbers brgin with "0" and all cell Italian numbers begin with "3". For example, I would just dial "06123456789" and wanted voxalot turn this call to Voipcheap provider, automaticly adding "0039" as Italian area code. So for cells; for example "335123456789", turns to Voipcheap dialing "0039335123456789". International numbers, because they have different area codes after 00 from Country to another, would like me to dial specific prefix; for example, I dial directly 001708123456789 for an USA call without Voxalot adding anything, just turn this call to Voipcheap.

On the other hand, because Skypho only (second provider registered in my Voxalot account) let me dial free italian numbers, all begining with "800xxx", and some other service Italian ones, beginning with "1xxx", I would like Voxalot turn this kind of calls to Skypho, without adding "0039" because there is no need to do that, beeing SkyPho an Italian provider.

This is something I can erase from my configuration, but it's important to know that my ATA adapter already has as dial plan "(00xx.|<:0039>x[1-9]xx.|xx.)" only.

I really hope someone help me, because I tried but everytime failed... Sometime works one thing, other time works the other: together never!

Hope I made myself understood well, but In few words, I would:

- VoipCheap.com provider: every kind of calls, landline and cell, international and Italian. For Italian calls, automatictly adding "0039" as area code; international calls without adding anything.

- SkyPho.it: only dial directly Italian free and service numbers (800xxx and 1xxx), without adding "0039".

For both providers, always avoid to dial high rate Italian numbers: "899xxx"; "144xxx": "166xxx"; "199xxx".

Asked too much??

Thank you so much in advance.

Hi, my skills are limited as I've just started fiddling around with voxalot these days, but I'll try to help you... Anyone free to correct and give better instructions

_00. Voipcheap -> ${EXTEN} for international calls
_0Z. Voipcheap -> 0039${EXTEN:1} 0+area code -> 0039+areacode+number without leading 0, thats how it works in my country, i dont know if you keep the 0 , if not take off the :1 in the {}
_3. Voipcheap -> 0039${EXTEN} adds country codes for numbers starting with 3

_800. Skypho -> ${EXTEN} pass 800 local numbers without change to skypho
_1[123578]. Skypho -> ${EXTEN} pass 1xxx numbers, except 14xxx, 16xx and 19xxx numbers

PS: Maybe you should just take off the dial plan in your ata and let voxalot handle them to avoid any mess

Hope it could help you, cya!

Thank you so much, nobre84.
I followed step by step all your instruction and I must say it works great! But unfortunately, 2 dial plans don't work at all.

_3. Voipcheap -> 0039${EXTEN} adds country codes for numbers starting with 3, gives me this test result: "A call to:335123456789 will get forwarded to <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>"

and _800. Skypho -> ${EXTEN} pass 800 local numbers without change to skypho gives, me me this: "A call to:800800800 will get forwarded to sip:800800800@public.sip.magrathea.net". :-(

The last one with _1[23578] kors only for 187, even if the test gives this result: "A call to:187 will get forwarded to sip:187@voxalot.com", but works and avoids high rate numbers.

Any suggestion?

Thanks a lot again.

I believe in Italy the 0 should not be removed, at least that's what this table of international dialing codes says.

With all these you also have to set "ENUM Replacement" correctly. The default is to use the same as the "Replacement" setting, but that is not always correct (it needs to be in international number format always, starting with the country code, no IDD). That's why you get the strange replacement for 800xxx numbers.

For the above dial plan, the ENUM replacement should be:

${EXTEN:2} (international calls)
39${EXTEN} (national calls with area code)
39${EXTEN} (mobile phones)
39${EXTEN} (800 local numbers)
39${EXTEN} (1xxx numbers, except 14xxx, 16xxx and 19xxx numbers)

You can do even fancier stuff, like automatically adding your local area code to "local" numbers. I would indeed turn of the dial plan feature of your ATA, otherwise things might get confusing (especially with ENUM replacement).

Thanks all of you. You were so kind for helping me.
Finally I have my phone working as I like It's great!
Thanks a lot again, Nobre84 and Kars.
Just a pity for Skypho this way doesn't let connect Skypho users: if someone call my Skypho number from a Skypho line, a kind voice says: "This number doesn't exist!" When calls between Skypho users, over the same line, in regular connection, are completely free and unlimited! But I can receive from all the other phones.
Thanks.

Glad that its working now Thanks for the corrections Kars
Is Skypho set to "register" in voxalot's providers page? I believe it should be receiving incoming calls.

Yes, Skypho is correctly registered in provider's list. I can call and receive from it. Only if someone of Skypho's circuit tries to call me with a Skypho number, I cannot be reached if I am logged on Voxalot... If I am logged directly with my ATA on Skypho, everything goes without any problem and I can be reached even by Skypho users! It's strange, but I suppose because terms of conditions of Skypho accounts say: "Calls between Skypho users are free and ulimited. [...] Ordinary calls forwarding, from Skypho numbers to landlines and viceversa, even from Skypho to Skypho numbers, follow ordinary rates...". Maybe they think when I am logged on voxalot with 15 different numbers (different area codes from north to south of Italy) at the same time, something strange happens and block calls coming from Skypho users to my numbers... Hope someone can say no! But it's important for me to be able to call from those numbers and receive from all landline and cell phones. Thanks again.

It shouldn't matter whether you register your ATA with Skypho or VoXaLot registers with Skypho. Both would be using the same credentials, so Skypho shouldn't care. Just make sure you're not registering your ATA directly to Skypho at the same time as you're having VoXaLot register with Skypho as many VoIP providers don't support multiple registrations.

Thanks, Ron, for your attention.
Skypho is an Italian VSP that permit to have almost unlimited geographic numbers for one only account, reachable from any kind of phone, all over the world. Calls within Skypho users are always free and unlimited, all the rest regulated according to a certain price list (www.skypho.net). Before I used to connect to Skypho with just my Sipura SPA-2002: 1 Skypho number of mine on line 1; line 2 VoipStunt. With Eyebeam softphone, other 10 Skypho numbers of mine logged all together at the same time. I was able, then, to receive and telephone regularly, even within my own numbers. This way one can think that the VSP supports without problems more than one login from the same user. Now, in other ways, I am always logged on Voxalot with all my Skypho numbers minus one logged directly on Line 1 of my SPA-2002 for test and if I try to call myself in both directions always the Skypho system returns with: "The number doesn't exist!" How can it be? Even if I route on Voxalot a Skypho number to another Skypho on dial plan, returns always the same words and not (supposed) call waiting tone, because it's the same phone to call and receive. That's what I get if I call 2 different VSP in my dial plan. I can't realize. What do you think about? Have I set something on my ATA adapter or what? But I think it's a matter of provider that blocks certain calls somehow. Thanks a lot. Regards.

In the past, when you were accessing Skypho with one phone number on your SPA-2002 and ten phone numbers on Eyebeam, you were actually logging into eleven different accounts from SIP's point of view (not eleven logins to one account). You had eleven separate SIP registrations going simultaneously.

To do the same thing via VoXaLot, you will need to set up eleven Provider entries, one for each phone number. Enable registration on each one and verify that registration suceeds on each one. You will not want either your SPA-2002 or Eyebeam registered with any of these eleven phone numbers.

Your SPA-2002 needs to be configured to register with VoXaLot. Assuming there isn't some incompatibility between VoXaLot and Skypho, an incoming call on any of your eleven Skypho numbers should ring the VoXaLot line of your SPA-2002.

Which of the Skypho numbers gets used for outgoing calls will depend on how you set up your Dial Plan entries. You can keep it very simple and have all outgoing call use only one of your Skypho numbers or you can inplement a dialing format that allows outgoing calls to use the Skypho number of your choice.
