SPA3102 Voip Settings

In yesterday’s blog I mentioned that I would post the settings I’m using for my voip setup. Here it is. Below you see the settings you get on the advanced/admin Line1 tab of the SPA device:

Notice the Display Name is the same as the User ID. There is a feature in voxee’s outgoing calls that if the Display Name field contains a proper PSTN number then voxee uses that number for its outbound caller id. What you do with this information is your own business, but please use a number that you own or are responsible for. I’m tired of a few ruining it for the rest of us. The User ID and password are the ones given by MPC. (If you are porting your number you will use the temporary number here.)

Now onto one of the great features of this device. Gateway accounts can only be used for outgoing calls (unfortunately, they can’t be used for incoming calls or with SIP providers that require registration). In this example, Gateway 1 is Voxee.com. The userid is provided to you when you sign-up. Gateway 2 is my FreeWorldDialup account.

Side Note: Voxee allows multiple simultaneous calls. This is good if you want to use a PC based SIP client on the road to call out.

At this point the SPA should be ready to go. But how to you tell it to use certain gateways? That is the job of the dial plan. Although at first looks very confusing, with a little bit of experimenting, you can make it do a lot.

I have the Sipura 3102 with no PSTN service. My Line 1 is registered to MyPhoneCompany, my GW1 is to Voxee.com, my GW2 is to FWD.

Some of the stanza’s you will probably recognize from other forums or sites (I’ve broken it out into multiple lines, however everything is on a single line in the “Dial Plan:” field) Note: I’ve used 775 as my bogus area code.

(<911:7752345678>S0|
<:18003733>411S0|
<:1775>[2-9]xxxxxxP3|1775[2-9]xxxxxxS0|<:1>775[2-9]xxxxxxS0|

<#1,:>xxx.<:@gw1>|
<#2,:>xx.<:@gw2>|<#2,:>*xx.<:@gw2>|< ;#2,:>**xx.<:@gw2>|<#2,:>***xx.<:@gw2>)

- For 911, forward to local Emergency number
- For 411, forward to 18003733411 (free 411 service) or using FWD: |<:*18003733>411S0<:@fwd.pulver.com>|
- For 7 digit dialing in local area code (Pause for a bit to make sure 10 digit dialing also works)
- For 11 digit dialing in local area code 1775nxxxxxx
- For 10 digit dialing in local area code 775nxxxxxx
- For 1800, 1888, 1877, 1866
…note all of the above use the Line 1 SIP provider

- for 10 digit dialing for all other (non 775) area codes prepend 1 and use gw1 (voxee.com)
- for 11 digit dialing for all other (non 775) area codes and use gw1 (voxee.com)
- for international dialing using gw1 (voxee)
- allow *xx. and **xx. to go to Line 1 SIP provider (ie *86 for VM)
- #9, to force Line 1 SIP provider
- #1, to force gw1 (voxee.com)
- #2, to force gw2 (FWD)
- #2, to force gw2 (FWD) and allow *xx. and ***xx. (for toll free) and **xx. (for peering numbers)

I think that about covers it.
