Hi there,

Looks like your ATA is not working properly.

You may need to review your settings.

Thanks,

Hi there,

Like I said before, the servers that are handling FPL calls are operational.

I will let other users/moderators to comment further as I think you are not convinced of possible ATA/DNS issue at your end.

Thanks,

Ok thank you

This number is mine and i use it when i am on a trip.
Actually it is not plugged into any ATA, so it is disconnected from FPL network and all calls should go directly to the voice mail.

Check by yourself by using a regular phone line or cellphone: 4xxxxxxxx

You might want to check this thread http://forum.fongo.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=6120
There does seem to be a bug (maybe) when the ATA is disconnected. It sounds like you are experiencing the same thing.

I will try to unplug everything when i'll be home.
I will see if it continues or no.

I have called many people with FPL with my Fido cellphone and always getting a busy tone.
If by resetting the ATA it doesn't correct the situation there is a problem somewhere.

Incoming calls from PSTN (Landlines and Mobile Phones) are not connecting at this time. Fongo to Fongo should be ok. This includes FreePhoneLine.ca accounts. - 2013-10-18 15:07

C'est normal, il y a un problème avec les appels entrants provenant d'une ligne terrestre ou d'un cellulaire.

Hi all,

we are currently experiencing an outage affecting many of our services including incoming calls, online store, in-app purchases and registration due to a large Bell Network outage in the Toronto area. We're waiting for updates and will pass them along as we get more information, please check http://status.fongo.com/ for the most up to date status.

Thanks,

LOL not Only Toronto.

I have the Same Prbolem In Québec City, Canada.

Its not the ATA. People calling at home hear fast busy signal. But i can call them.

FreePhoneLine should check node in Québec City and/or others city.

I believe the main Bell line that comes into the Toronto servers has been damaged and so it is effecting ALL incoming calls from outside the Fongo network. It won't matter where you are connected to as all calls from outside the network will come down this line at some point.

I don't think there is a lot Fongo can do except wait for Bell to fix things.

Hi Jake,

You are right. This is affecting all Fongo/FPL customers as well as new registrations/purchases. I hope that Bell support will fix this soon.

Can someone please test Toronto/Mississauga/Brandford and let me know?

Thanks!
