I have recently upgraded my router and now the person on the other end can not hear my clearly. I want to forward ports 10,000-20,000 and 5060-6061.

My challenge is the new router asks the following:

internal port
external port
protocol
To IP Address

can someone tell me what to enter?
thanks for your help

You only need 2 ports forwarded, a SIP port, and a RTP port, and you have to make sure nothing else will use the ports you assign except the ATA. the first thing I would do is check the ports the ATA is using, usually 5060 for SIP, and check what the RTP port is. When you find that, get the router to forward those ports to the ATA. Ports 10,000-20,000 and 5060-6061 are what freephoneline can use, it does not use them all.

I suspect that will not really solve your problem though. If I were to guess, you have a high amount of jitter on the upload. See what happens when you use the G.729 codec instead of G.711 See what happens when you select 30ms instead of the default 20ms timing.

Take a look at how good you internet connection is for VOIP http://myspeed.visualware.com/servers/n ... erate.com/

No Ring tone

Postby chrisristeski » 03/25/2011

HI All..

I have setup my pap2t-na and it works great with an old uniden cordless 2.4Ghz phone. I went out over the weekend and bout a Uniden DECT 6.0 phone ( 1.9GhZ) and now when someone calls the phone it rings once followed by broken rings like its dying or something. I have read all over the place about changing the ring tone frequency and the voltage but no success. Does anyone know what the correct settings would be in order to get this phone to work properly.

**NOTE** i went to walmart and bought an At&T cordless set shortafter and it too won't work. It seems anything DECT6.0 has issues ringing..


Please advise

Thanks

Under “Ring and Call Waiting Tone Spec” category change Ring Frequency from 52 (recommended) to 26.
It worked for me.

Thank you for the update, Diva! I am almost certain 52 is a misprint, and that actual setting is 25, which I used before my Chinese knockoff PAP2 died. I forgot to document it so I could not comment!

Linksys PAP2T-NA & Linkys E3000 don't work ...

Postby marginal » 04/17/2011

Hello everyone.

I installed a Linksys (Cisco) E3000 router yesterday and since then I don't hear the voices on the incoming calls and they don't hear me on the outgoing ones (there's no tone heard on my side either).
Any suggestions?

Regards.

I have also tried some 905 phone number such but all it does is just go silent but when i check my log it says it was connected successfully. But I could not hear anything at all and the other side could not hear me either.

Thanks for your help.


is this issue resolved?
Is this dependent on our FPL number?

I'm having the same issue, certain numbers work and certain numbers don't work.

Have either of you having these issues tried changing codecs recently, or perhaps changed routers like marginal?

I heavily suspect the culprit here is your Cisco E3000 marginal, do you happen to download a lot? The Cisco E3000 is specifically horrible for holding multiple stable connections at a time because of it's fairly limited NAT table, especially with stuff like torrents. Not sure about non-stock firmware compatibility though...

You are right admin.
I put the PAP2-NA between my SpeedTouch ST780 and my Linksys E3000 and now everything came back to normal (the ST780 has its firewall deactivated).
The only issue I am having is I can no longer do the provisioning as per Mr. Barbieri, but this is not so critical as not being able to receive calls.

I have the same settings and problems as yours, and I think I found the solution.

Steve is right, one way audio is due to network issue, either firewall or port forwarding/mapping. As soon as I disable the router firewall, FPL works great.

My guess is FPL using dynamic RTP port to transport audio, unlike vBuzzer. Therefore, only forwarding certain ports (e.g. SIP using UDP 5060, 5061, etc, and RTP using UDP 13000, and 13001, etc), instead of a range of ports (e.g. UDP 5060 - 6061, and 10000 - 20000) won't permanently solve FPL one way audio problem.

Not all the routers can do a range of ports forwarding, e.g. Belkin router cannot, but only do specific port forwarding.

Therefore, for those lucky guys who have a range of ports forwardable routers, they have no issues with FPL; for some unlucky guys, like mackey2001 and myself, FPL just works on the "hit and miss" pattern. Only way to get this around is turn off the router firewall (which I don't like to), or add all those ports in the range to those non-smart router port forwarding list...which is a pain... :o

unless, Steve can tell us which ports FPL use for RTP!!!

Steve, please. Thank you.


mackey2001 wrote:Hello...here is my problem.....

I have a pap2 - with Vbuzzer's settings in Line 1
and on line 2 - I entered all the FPL settings.

Line 1 (vbuzzer) is working perfectly fine. but line 2 (fpl) is not working. Here are details :
====================================
Service Provider : Rogers
Dialtone : Yes, I do hear dialtone on my fpl line.
Call out : I can call out, but i dont hear the phone ringing, and the other party can not hear me if they answer the phone. According to the other part.. they do hear couple of beeps every 3-4 seconds... its like __ __ __ __ __ __

Call IN : No, whenever somebody try to call me - it gives them busy siignal. and ofcourse my FPL line never rings.
=====================================

What have I tried so far ?
I have hard reset my PAP2 a couple of times
I have just put FPL settings including rtp settings, user settings.
I have tried changing the codec settings to everything possible.
I have tried the port from 5060, 5061, 80, 6060.
=====================================


Even than.... my Vbuzzer still works fine, but FPL is not. Any help ??? Why are most of the settings here hitt and miss ?? is there any confirmed settings for PAP2 which is confirmed to work?


HELP HELP

Thanks

Weird thing is, when FPL not working with my router firewall turned on + ports forwading being setup, VBuzzer works just fine, as Mackey mentioned.

One more problem is, after disabled the router firewall, dial *98 goes nowhere, all I got is silence. With firewall turned on, *98 will take me to voice mailbox, but of course it brings up one way audio while in phone conversation.

The odd thing is, I replaced the not-working for FPL router (Belkin N F5D8233-4 v3000) with a granpa-grade USR router, both FPL and VBuzzer work extremely great, no matter those UDP ports being forwarded or not, which is even better, .........or...........worse............correct?.....LOL..............

have fun, guys, with this unique techy stuff.... cost me 5 days of late bed-time.....

I can access my voice mailbox by dialing my own phone number.
Have you tried that?

HI there,

this is my first post, as I've just activated FPL with PAP2T-NA last weekend. So, far so good, but I wanted to share some info with other people here. I am using Astaro Security Gateway UTM device and I thought I that opening port ranges from 5060-6061 UDP and 10K-20K UDP would be enough, but it wasn't.
When I did this, I was getting ring tone, but no voice. By looking in live log, I was seeing packets in range of 49K+.
So, my current config with Astaro and FPL to work properly is the following:

1) LAN->WAN ports opened from PAP device IP only->voip.freephoneline.ca in range of ports from 1025-60K (so, destination is FPL Proxy Server only, not whole internet)
2) no need to setup WAN->LAN inbound access rule at all
3) No need for SIP section configuration at all
4) No DNAT/SNAT configuration needed at all


Overall, you only need to open outbound ports from your PAP, or any other VoIP adapter IP you have to FPL Proxy Server IP on ports defined in range above and you can make and receive calls.

If, someone else has different experience, I would like to hear it, Especially, when it comes to port range.

Also, where can I find, what advanced features are supported by FPL, when it comes to using short codes like *65 and so on (conferencing etc)?

Thanks,

Zoro

Hi,

i am a new user using VOIP phone with linksys PAP2T and bell 2wire modem-router. per doc, i completed setting and did port forward (SIP port:5060-5061 and RTP port:16384 - 16482).

It looks works, but i have one trouble.

1.Network lose connection,ping timeout, and power light get red when i click saving each change (sometimes no changes) in advance mode.
2.network lose connection, ping timeout and power light get red during the call.

This is recurring issue (each time the line will come back to normal in 2 or 3 second- it looks PAP2T did reboot automatically), and it is very annoying.

any idea?

Thanks,

Jack

Hello FPL community,

I am using PAP2T through a WRT160NL router and every "basic" funcitonality is working fine (port forwarding, DMZ enabled in router & PAP2T as per pdf provided in this thread). Thanks to all for sharing your tips and tricks!

1) One thing is that, even without any message on voicemail, I still get the 3-5 "du" tones before getting the line when I unhook the phone... Anyone has an idea on how this could be avoided?

2) I would now like to configure the call forwarding as made available through the PAP2T's USER tab, which is more flexible than with the FPL account (i.e. follow me, which I have made working fine). However, with the ATA, a "to be forwarded" caller automaticallly gets the voicemail. Any clue on this issue?

3) Finally, anyone knows how to use (i.e. dial on the phone) the speed dialing as configured on the USER tab?

Thanks for your help

Can anyone tell me why the PAP2T-NA is preferred over the Grandstream HT-286 that FPL sells themselves? It seemed more popular for some reason which is why I'm thinking of getting it.

I was wondering if anyone can assist me with my configuration, the problem I seem to have is that I can hear when someone calls me but they can't hear me at all. I've read the whole thread and did everything according to the instructions.

This is my configuration:

-Linksys pap2t device connected to a trendnet gigabit switch connected to my Cisco E3000 router
-My router is flashed with Tomato version 1.28
-I just flashed the ATA to the latest verison 5.1.6
-I am on Teksavvy Cable Internet
-I'm using a vtech Dect 6.0 cordless with 3 handbases

On my router, I have the following ports forwarded to the IP of my ATA, UDP ports 5060-6061 and UDP ports 16384-16482.

I do download a lot, as I saw Kris post this question about the Cicsco E3000 routers. I have tried putting the IP of the ATA in the DMZ zone but it's still the same. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

EDIT I ended up solving the problem, I flashed my router with the latest Tomato firmware from Toastman without VPN support. Forwarded the following UDP ports to the ATA IP: 5060-6061 and 10000-20000. I couldn't get the static IP to work with it properly so I ended up configuring my router's DHCP server to assign a static IP to the ATA.

I called my cousin in Ottawa and talked for about 10 minutes and he had no problems calling me. So far so good, I'm very happy. I hope it stays stable. The true test is when I start downloading torrents and trying to make a call at the same time.

Hi everyone...just started using today...i bought a PAP2T-Na...which i thought was brand new (admittedly it was through ebay...but someone local)...set everything up and it was fine...all of a sudden i try making a call and my adapter starts flashing red and green...far as i can tell that means its bricked, but does anyone know what happened, and if possible how I can fix it?

As it was ebay local...while the guy did offer 60 days before exchanging, would like to see if this is a repairable problem...if any advice please let me know...

Is there any easy way for me to get both ports to work on the PAP2T. I want one phone number but I want it to ring to both ports, and allow either to pick up.

I have a great cordless phone set, but you really can't beat the reliability of a good wired handset. I would like to know if it is possible without me buying a combination wired/cordless phone.

Thanks in advance!

Is there anything stopping you from going to the dollar store and buying a rj11 splitter, which would allow 2 phones to share the same line? either this solution is too obvious, or one of those "why didn't I think of that" moments! :)
