Are you guys getting a ring on incoming calls using az1324's method?

can someone specify settings for X-lite (something we can all test this with) before trying out on ATA?

I get 'Registration 408: Register Timeout with the following settings:

Please tell me what I did wrong:

Worked perfectly on my Linksys RTP300! Thanks for the interm fix! Smile

Prior to following these instructions I tried all of the other suggestions everyone had on here...like setting the "Registration Expire" to 0. I forgot to change this back to 3600 which caused the first attempt to use the proxy to fail. Once I changed the registration to 3600 I was up and running.

BTW - Mapping 5070 to the machine running the proxy does not appear to be needed. I was able to make/receive calls with and without the mapping in my Smoothwall firewall...good deal! Smile

UPNP is also not enabled on my firewall.

Next thing is to try the adding the 100k ohm resistor to the line to get caller id working.

So can anyone explain how this is actually working? I would RTFM...if there was an FM. Smile

andsmith79,

When you get an incoming call, does your phone ring? If so, which guide did you use to get your linksys working? I have the pap2 and before the magicjack update, the phone, a wired phone, worked well. After the upgrade and using the proxy method, the phone no longer rings on incoming calls.

I'm just wondering if I did something wrong or if it's the type of phone I'm using.

Thanks,

OMG OMG I followed the directions and it works Razz

I am able to use my ATA with magic jack with that lil program thingy and running my computer and the best part is I dont have to use that stupid USB dongle which makes the calls nasty and snap crackles and pops now my calls are clear agian wooooooooooooo THANK YOU i was gonna shell out money for callcentric or sipgate (by the way on sipgate recieving calls is a bit hit or miss not everyone that called can get thru) my cheap low cost magic jack is working on my ATA Amen and god bless who ever made that program and for who ever posted the directions Wink

this is sort of on topic, but for some weird reason I can't get the new SIP data out of my magicjack to try this out. Last time I used mjinfo, but it says that there is a parameter error. I tried using Stroth's sip grabber, but it just gives me a box with a text field. Any help on getting SIP data would be awesome as I Really want to use this!

xguju,

Unplug your device and wait a min or so. Put it back in, make sure the softphone comes up and says ready, and use Stroths program to find the sip info again. It may take a try or 2, but it will work.

Can someone please clarify 2 issues before I try MJMD5:

Does the MJMD5 program work with just about *any* Windows ATA?
Do I have to have my computer running 24/7 to make and receive calls, like the current MJ?

It should work with any ATA, because you'll be using it as a proxy. It will require you to keep your pc on 24/7 because you'll be using the dongle to establish a connecting with MJ servers.

Thanks for the reply roc1479. I think I'll wait for a dongleless version that doesn't require 24/7 from my computer.

Hmm,

I checked my pap2-na and it shows the following for incoming calls:

Call 1 State: Ringing
Call 1 Tone: Ring-Callback
Call 1 Encoder: G711u
Call 1 Decoder: G711u
Call 1 Type: Incoming

So it appears that it's trying to ring the phone, however, the phone doesn't ring. If I answer the phone while making a test call, it picks up.

Can it be the type of phone that I am using? It's an older handset, wired from ATT.

I also have my softphone set to headset.

Can't figure it out. I doubled checked my settings to no avail. Any suggestions? I just need the phone to ring when an incoming call comes it.
