Don't waste your time with the username and password you use with the
softphone. For the SIP settings, they are using the phone number with a "1"
in front as username, and an 8 character randomly generated password.
The server used by the softphone is the same as the one they give you for
the ATA: voip.freephoneline.ca
I've used the service for almost a year for outbound only. Like other
mentioned, it's fairly decent for home use.  A nice bonus is that you can
set the caller ID for outbound calls (both the name and the phone number).
