There are lots of issues with being behind routers doing NAT. It is not possible to tell from the information you gave which specific one applies to your case -- US Robotics makes many different models and any specific model could be configured in a myriad of ways. Ekiga handles many of the issues pretty well by using STUN. You need to run the Configuration Assistant[0] to see what information it can tell you about what type of NAT you may be experiencing. See the wiki [1] for more information on NAT specifically.

But they all charge roughly around the same and are very cheap compared to POTS long-distance accounts. The other benefit of diamoncard is that they actually give some money to help fund Ekiga development. So, unless you can find some massive price advantage it's nice to go with them.

Yes, Diamondcard has been getting my business for the past year and a bit and I have no objections. Their service seems on a par with other comparably priced providers. best wishes, Oisin Feeley ___ ekiga-list mailing list ekiga-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list

However, it just says 'Error while starting the listener ...' and 'check no other program is running on the port used ...' without saying anything about what the error was or what port it's talking about! Not that I'm aware of any reason why anything else would be listening on such ports: Have you tried: 1.

The NAT test thing said Port Restricted NAT. That should be fine. The other possible culprit then is that you have a previous instance of ekiga running which hasn't been killed properly. Looking at your original email again I see that I missed this line: When I quit ekiga, the window closes but it just hangs and doesn't terminate. So, it's quite possible that you have a previous instance of ekiga hanging around. You can check for sure with netstat -p -l | grep ekiga and follow it up with a killall ekiga or just kill the PID mentioned in the PID/ekiga column output from the above. Hope that helps, I'm out of easy ideas after that. Best wishes, Oisin Feeley ___ ekiga-list mailing list ekiga-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list
[Ekiga-list] Way to pause before dialing an extension?
Hi all, Is there a way to make ekiga pause before dialing an extension? I'm trying to dial a number of the format 1-234-567-8901 ext. 2345 I want to use the Local address book and hopefully not use Asterisk (wonderful though it is). I can dial 1-234-567-8901 and then when I hear the ring at the PBX I can type 2345 on the Ekiga keypad and the call goes through. If I store the number in the local address book as 123456789012345 then I just get a busy signal. Any hints?

[Ekiga-list] Linux Journal article on Ekiga and Wengo
Hi all, This month's Linux Journal (March 2007, Issue 155 pp 22-26) concentrates on VOIP Telephony (a lot of good Asterisk articles) and contains a column from regular contributor Marcel Gagné which covers Ekiga and WengoPhone. He gives a good review to them both, but seems to lean towards WengoPhone (for the stated reason of great sound quality, SMS support and IM integration). The article mentions Gizmo towards the end but doesn't review it. Personally I've had much better luck with Ekiga than with Wengo or Gizmo in terms of getting them set up easily. I also wonder what codecs Marcel was using (on both machines) to test sound-quality. I think the review sold Ekiga a little short as although it's positive, its praise is muted and the impression left is that the sound quality isn't that good, that it has less features and that there's no easy way of buying credits to do pc-to-pstn calls. Anyway, just thought I'd mention it on the list so that you're aware of coverage. Oisín Feeley ___ ekiga-list mailing list ekiga-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list

Without other information I'd suggest trying the following: 0) Make sure that your end is working by using the echo test sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED]. If it's not then follow 1 to 6 below. If it is then get the remote user to do the same thing. 1) check that your microphone is switched on 2) Make sure that the microphone is selected as the input device Edit-Preferences-Devices-AudioDevices-InputDevice- whatever your mic is (For me the appropriate device in Input Device is USB Logitech) 3) Make sure that your headset is selected as the output device Edit-Preferences-Devices-AudioDevices-InputDevice- whatever your headset is (For me the appropriate device in Output Device is USB Logitech) 4) Make sure the correct mixer device is selected 5) Make sure that your mixer-application has volume turned up correctly for whatever is your output device. I use the gnome volume applet 2.14.3 as a mixer application 6) Goto 0) HTH, Oisin On 1/24/07, Datta Koli [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, Dears I am the new member of the ekiga family, i just install configure ekiga 2.0.2 , with both the protocol h323 sip If i try to connect with 2 pcs with ekiga after confiuration driud all testing is proper but when i am dial to another pc its asking for accept connection that time its ringing after accepting connection i am getting video conferrance is working properly, but voip is also connected properly , but voice is not flowing pc to pc i looking for some help on this problem please help me Thanks in advance datta koli - Check out the all-new Yahoo!

[Ekiga-list] Being called by Windows Messenger to Ekiga
Hi all, I've been trying to get a windows user set up with a VOIP client so that we can communicate. So far our testing of combinations is partial and incomplete, but we've done * Skype (Win) - Skype(Linux) -- I don't like it because of Skype's non-Free nature, but it works * Gizmo (Win) - Gizmo(Linux) -- this fails partially on the Linux side because of some interaction with ALSA, also although they're using an open protocol the client is non-Free * Gizmo(Win) - Ekiga (Linux) -- seems to fail in both directions, but need to test more * Win Messenger 5.1 - Ekiga (Linux) -- he claims that he is told that I need a .NET Passport Has anyone tried the last option and if so, is there any validity to his statement that he is prompted for my .NET Passport? I found the following posts in the archives which I've passed on to him: http://threebit.net/mail-archive/gnomemeeting-list/msg00108.html http://www.mail-archive.com/ekiga-devel-list@gnome.org/msg00327.html So, has anyone got this working? Also, is it worth suggesting that he install Ekiga-win32 (note it would be a difficult task for him, he's remote to me and I find it hard to help) ? What does ekiga-win32 need to get to a usable state if it's not already there?

Hi guys, thanks for the response, but right now after following Yannick's instructions we're having the following failure: From Win Messenger5.1 (with user registered on ekiga.net) I am shown in contacts as offline even though I'm logged on. If I call from Ekiga to WM5.1 then a connection is established but no sound can be heard be either party even though we've done succesful echo tests. If I send a chat then the WM5.1 then there's a failure and ditto the other way round.
