[Ekiga-list] Rv: registrar over dnydns?
I have a Fritz!Box 7390. I have my landline number set up there, which is under Telephony>Telephone numbers in the Fritz!Box interface. I also have two of my other SIP accounts set up there, with dummy telephone numbers. The result of all that is that if, for example, you contact my Ekiga SIP address, my phone rings. I can also use Ekiga softphone for video calls if I want, which doesn't use any of these Fritz!Box telephony "numbers", but uses my ADSL connection to the internet. Importantly, I use the SIP registrar for softphones to make video calls, which means specifying the SIP server address as the registrar (eg. ekiga.net or sip.diamondcard.us and the corresponding usernames). I myself have set up dyndns for my Fritz!Box IP address, but I haven't used it for a long time since AVM (the Fritz!Box manufacturer) made MyFritz! available for Android.

Okay - let me put that straight: I can use ekiga with the WAN IP of my router as registrar (since it works obviously perfectly) but I can't use the dyndns which should be (per definition) nothing else but a mapping between hostname an ip. It sounds a bit weird to me. Also I don't use the voip provider directly (which I wanted to make clear by saying: the registrar is my router). It is connected to the isp (which in my case is the voip provider) and forwards calls to it's clients - e.g. ekiga (or the "normal" telephone). And since it shall forward the calls not only in LAN but over WAN, I need to tell ekiga the WAN ip of my router - and here I want to use dyndns. So you see: in this loop there is dyndns which doesn't work :( ___ ekiga-list mailing list ekiga-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list___ ekiga-list mailing list ekiga-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list
Re: [Ekiga-list] Any prospect of Ekiga being ported to MacOS
1. I received notification of your call (in my case, both my landline phone and my smart mobile phone ring), and answered using the landline. 2. I could not hear anything on the other end. 3. I checked the phone handset and it said 'Talking' which means that as far as the phone is concerned, the call is still connected. 4. I worked out later that I had two instances of my ekiga.net account registered at the time you called. One was in the VoIP settings of my modem, and the other was the CSipSimple app on my smartphone. 5. I Eventually hung up the landline phone, and went and had a look at the smartphone. The app CSipSimple reported a missed call, and had a record of your call because it said 'Bret Busby'. 6. I was having a look at the record of the call, to try and work out what had happened. During this process, I fouled things up. It looks like I selected all call history, and then deleted them. So unfortunately, I am not able to comment on the details of the record of your call reported from CSipSimple. > Anyway, if you could advise what, if anything, shows in your event history, > for that attempt, it would be good. No can do. 7. I would be interested to see if I need to change my SIP configuration or not, which means receiving a few calls in a row to test my landline phone and my smartphone.

The second link above; the "Comparison of VOIP Software" is the one to which I referred in the contact with you, when I could not remember what exactly was the wikipedia web page. From that web page, I found that Linphone apparently runs on each of Linux, MS Windows, and Mac OSX. I have mentioned that to my brother, so I will find what he does about it and possibly trying it on his Apple computer (assuming that his computer is running Mac OSX - I do not know which OS he is running). I have installed Linphone to try it. Using Linphone, I have just attempted a phone call to you (Greg). Linphone shows the call as having been successful, with a duration of about 45 seconds, but, after the ringing stopped, the line went quiet, and I did not hear any sound coming from the other end. So, I assume that Linphone can not communicate with Ekiga. That is my assumption, but I do not know enough for that assumption to be valid. According to the web page at http://wiki.ekiga.org/index.php/Ekiga_Interoperability , communication between Ekiga and Linphone (v1.5), should work, for video and audio. The version of Linphone that I installed, is 3.3.2-1, from the packages repository for Debian Linux 6.0.x . Anyway, if you could advise what, if anything, shows in your event history, for that attempt, it would be good. -- Bret Busby Armadale West Australia ..

[Ekiga-list] Some general SIP questions
After thinking about it, I realised yesterday that what I said might have given the impression that I don't know what I'm talking about, which is kind of true. I have three SIP accounts: 1. An ekiga.net account I set this up a long time ago because I wanted to find an alternative to Skype, and this looked like the best way to get my feet wet. 2. A diamondcard account I got this originally so that I could call SIP-->phone to my Auntie in another country 3. A SIP account with my ISP This one replaced my POTS landline a year or so ago. It is a SIP account which enables my landline number to function the same as my old POTS number. I have the following questions: 1. Can any SIP account establish a connection with any other SIP account? 2. What is the nature of the obstacles in the way of this? For example, some registrars not being able to establish connections with others, commercial 'gateways', etc. 3. Is more than one SIP account in my e-mail signature redundant (assuming all three registrars are working)?

I just did a test using Ekiga with another noobie Ekiga user. He used Ekiga 4.0 for Windows, and I used Ekiga 3.2.6 for Linux for the test. 1. I would like to carry out another test with another user of Ekiga 3.2.6. Please respond to me directly if you can help. 2. We were able to converse. 3. I was only able to see video of myself, and he was only able to see video of himself. 4. We had a brief discussion regarding the SIP protocol.Is there more than one SIP protocol? ie. Is it possible that different software uses different protocol/s, or part thereof? For example, I believe Empathy has 'some SIP support'. Do Ekiga and Empathy not talk to each other at all? 5. I chose Ekiga because it is multi-platform (Linux, Microsoft Windows, Apple OSX). This is necessary at the moment because most people I have been using Skype with use computers with Microsoft or Apple OS. In the long term, I think that people should be able to choose any SIP software they like, and they should be able to talk to each other.
