Unlocking a £20 Linksys PAP2 VoIP adapter

gavinp

Line 2 on my PAP2 has now logged in successfully using the SIPDiscount username and password.

It looks like there is a bit of time delay between creating the account and it being ready for use.

Thanks

Me too! - Are you able to make calls successfully? I keep getting an engaged tone.

Nah, it's just the way their system is currently setup. Finarea's whole VOIP operation is still under beta testing. Voipcheap.co.uk is another one. There's no ad/spyware in my sipdiscount.exe.

If you want an account I can setup one for you with a dummy email and password which you can change afterwards. Edit: actually I'm not sure if you can actually change user/pass yet but I can still set up an account for you if you want to play around with it - though it's not currently working for new users as mentioned in my post below.

OK, I'll accept your opinion, still seems strange, but if all their other products are setup for softphone registration, I can see why they would create an exe instead of designing some php or asp etc.

I'll go register now May as well have another line for my pbx

Cheers, Des.

Very strange that they need you to dowmload a program to register, I'll be giving that a miss.

Cheers, Des.

Their website indicates you can test the system without any registration. It allows 1 minute calls for free to 'all the known world'.

It does seem to work OK - are you dialling the full international code 0044...as otherwise you do get an engaged tone ?

Thanks

Yes, calling a landline number - 0208xxxxxxx

So I'm dialing 0044208xxxxxxx. I've also tried 00440208xxxxxxx, and various combinations removing the zeros, etc.

I have a feeling it might be my dial plan, could you possibly paste yours here so i can compare it with mine:

(*xx|[3469]11|0|00|[2-9]xxxxxx|1xxx[2-9]xxxxxxS0|xxxxxxxxxxxx.)

Thanks

Where did you get that dial plan from and what does it do?

My plan (albeit for other providers) is a simple (xx.|*xx.|**xx.|#xx.)

I haven't changed my dial plan from the default but I have pasted it below anyhow - it looks the same as yours:

*xx|[3469]11|0|00|[2-9]xxxxxx|1xxx[2-9]xxxxxxS0|xxxxxxxxxx

Do you have a dialtone when you pick up the phone ?

Is the "DTMF Tx Method" set to INFO which I think is the only thing I have changed ?

If that doesn't work, PM me your email address and I'll send you a screenshot of my line 2 setup.

Thanks

It's the default plan that was there from the start, I presume it was from the original Vonage settings. It looked complex to me so I didn't want to change it.

I've just tried using yours but I'm still getting an engaged tone when dialing out.

I'll paste my full settings page in a sec.

Cheers

Thanks - yes I get a dialtone. The DTMF Tx Method was set to Auto but I've changed it to INFO and it hasn't made a difference. I've just taken some screenshots, if you could compare the settings to yours that'd be appreciated. Thanks.
