I tried to get my working with Gizmo and Ekiga, but failed. SIP settings always show "Registration failed" for both services (and I'm connected to my WLAN) Do you have any pointers? My software version is 1.0633.18.01 11-01-07 RM-208 Nokia E65.

BR,

To go around the problem, you will have to use a third party "open voip proxy", or install one at your side of your firewall in a Linux machine. The easiest way to do that is find and use a third party proxy that will do the routing job instead of Ekiga's server which obviously fails. I know of such a proxy, but I promised to not reveal the URL, so I am afraid you will have to do your own digging here... Nevertheless, Ekiga has more problems with Nokia's VoIP client, and so even after I got registered, each time a person using the Ekiga Linux client calling me, my phone would freeze. When calling me from the XTen client using their Ekiga credentials, the phone worked fine. So I guess, it all boils down in the Ekiga guys buying a Nokia VoIP phone and fixing their incompatibilities.

They have some GPS client software in there and lots of Exchange/Blackberry/Office stuff. If you are working in a corporation and you travel a lot, you probably would need the E65. If you are more of a hobbyist, get the N80.

But should Gizmo work right away? It didn't for me. I think I even followed some notes posted by you for the setup.

Anyway, thank you for sharing your insight.

You can either use Gizmo's own "download script" that sets up automatically, or you can use their step by step instructions at Gizmo's support pages. IF after all that you still can't connect to Gizmo, then you probably have a very weird WiFi network that STUN fails or something.

After you create the account, you add it in the PRofiles, and then you go to the "internet telephone" application and do a registration there.

I tried that, but it also failed. But I just found something else posted by you that talked about port triggering. I'm trying to find out how to enable that on my WLAN AP, which is running OpenWRT.

Yeah, you need the right ports open to trigger all your machines that might connect via DHCP. Unfortunately port forwarding is useless because you can only have 1 machine with a specific IP address to do forwarding to a specific port. If you don't have a netgear/linksys/etc wifi router, I am pretty sure the problem you are having is with your firewall. You need ports TCP/UDP:5060-5070 open.
