Strange phone call.from101

Post by ferry »

Hi there,
these days I keep get phone calls from numbers such as 101 1001 201 301 401 501.
And no one is on the phone. Do you know what's wrong?

thanks

Google "SIP Scanners". Had the same problem. I use an OBI device and method 4 works for me:

If your ATA supports it try it. If not you can try the IP address list (method 3) but freephoneline does not give an official list of used IPs. You can find some of them but they may add more in the future (they own a range) so your phone may stop working then.

They are calling your ATA directly, but through the normal phone system. This is probably because you have either port 5060 open to your ATA or it is in DMZ. What ATA do you have, there is usually a setting you can change to stop this.
