Does any one know of a good software based sip phone that will work with an IPO running R5 that is freeware?

I would say go for 3CX, it works great as I and others had problems with Xlite :) Not sure if it is supported though

3cx is much easier, however i am unclear what info should go into the ID and password fields?

id is the extn number, password is the login code. if i remember correctly, it was a while ago

Extension and ID I use the authentication for my SIP line the password is the password, maybe there is an option in some SIP lines to use different extensions with the same ID but I had to use the same value for both.
Not as an extension on an R5 IPO though

If you can't be good, be good at it!
 
Tom is correct, that's what I have and it works, even from outside if you set up port forwarding from an external address :)

Tried transferring a call yet MrIPO?

"There's a dog in the New Zealand section
 
can't seem to get a transfer working on any sip phone, software or desk phone. is this a bug or has anyone got it working?
 
i have only tried 3cx and the xlite one. neither worked no matter what i tried, not sure how to read the logs either. All i see when i enable the logging on the 3cx is "internal server error".

"There's a dog in the New Zealand section
 
Using 3CX I can transfer fine both Blind and Assisted, using the Transfer Button, bottom right of client 3CX.

With X-Lite you need to upgrade to eyebeam 1.5 from what I can see, as the transfer feature is not active in XLite.

Am I missing something here ?

which version of 3cx are you running?

im running 3.1.6288.0 and the transfer action is top left next to the hold button, when i click it, it holds line1 opens line 2 and allows me to dial, when i click transfer again to complete it disconnects the second call and i get an internal server error message.

Maybe you have a later release?

Thanks for the link, i'll have a play with that one.



"There's a dog in the New Zealand section
 
same here Tom and I get server failure when I try to transfer. I checked and there is a new version out 3.1.8571 I installed it and it happens with that too

Joe/Tom, Have you tried with or without "call waiting" ticked?
