step by step
A. Freephoneline = Sign up for FREE here https://www.freephoneline.ca/accountRegistrationStepOne
B. Once you have finished the sign up process in A above, and your logged in and (Registered), make sure it says your “Admin Account” and then follow how to have your Unlocked Key for $79.95* over here clicking on this link https://www.freephoneline.ca/login?page ... ToPurchase.
C. Once you have gone through the purchase setup for your Freephonline Unlock Key it will automatically unlock a door/setting in the “Admin Account” to where a new sub category is called Sip Settings and this is where you go to get what is needed to be placed into your own purchased ATA SIp Device.
C. BYOD = Bring/Buy Your Own Device:
You have to purchase your own ATA SIP Device, they can range around approx $35 or higher and a common place to look on like most people is eathier (ebay, kijiji or craigslits in your local area), please be cautious as I have heard of there being knockoffs/counterfeits ATA Devices being sold.
D. Once you have gone threw all the steps above you should be on your way to test by making and receiving calls.
A. You want to transfer your existing providers phone number?Extras
B. Yes! In most cases you can transfer over your number to Freephoneline for only $25.00 (inquire first with Fongo Support by PM)
C. Only after you are 100% sure that you can forward your existing phone providers number over, then click on this link http://www.freephoneline.ca/optionalServices# 'Transfer my number'
D. Also an 'important reminder' while this transfer is taking place
(example: your with another provider transferring your existing phone number over to Freephonline)
PLEASE do not cancel with your existing provider until the process is completely done.
E. I suggest you to keep in contact with in 2 weeks of the transfer with Freephonline Support by PM until it's confirmed the transfer has been completed.
F. Once your phone number is transfered and in the hands of Freephonline, you will then have to set up your new Sip credentials within your ATA device that you own.
A. What to do now? Usually your current ISP (Internet Service Provider) if your using DSL or VDSL will put you on a Dry Loop service "approx $10 ea month depending on the distance you are from the switching center" (you can always inquire the Dry Loop fees before hand with your current ISP over the phone).You now have no land-line after you transferred your current phone number?
B. If you do plan on switching your Land Line with Voip then dry loop is generally the route that some take, or to save you from Dry Loop fees go with cable as you don't have to worry about Dry Loop fees.
