First, set up your account at http://www.ipkall.com/ :
Account type: IAX
IAX User Name: ipkall
IAX Proxy: your.asterisk.box
Email Address: *****
Password: youripkallpassword
Seconds to Ring before Hang Up: 120
Second, setup new IAX Trunk @ FreePBX :
Under Outgoing Settings:
Trunk Name : Washington
Under Incoming Settings:
USER Context: ipkall
USER Details:
insecure=very
type=user
context=from-trunk
auth=plaintext
secret=youripkallpassword
Third, setup Incoming Route:
DID Number: 1XXXXXXXXXX Set Destination: Choose your extension
Reload!
That's it!
I just switch my IPkall account from SIP to IAX. Using your settings (with slight modification) I was able to receive calls. However, I wasn't able to direct calls to a specific extension. I set up the simple inbound route just as you said, it just won't send the calls to the extension that I want it to go. Any ideas?
I've used the exact settings, videomakk posted, before and just could not get them to work for me.
This works if your trying to send the call to something besides an extension. In my case, I wanted to send the call to an IVR.
Here's what I did as quick workaround. Set up ipkall as described above. SIP or IAX doesn't matter. If using SIP and behind a NAT router, make sure you have your ports (I use ports 5004-5082 UDP) forwarded to your Trixbox ip address. If IAX, then forward UDP port 4569. For RTP (your audio stream) forward UDP ports 10001-20000. Also, adjust sip_general_custom.conf to include the following
externip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xx (IP address issued by your ISP. If you don't know it, go to, http://www.whatismyip.com.)
localnet=192.168.2.XX/255.255.255.0 (This is actual private ip address of the router EXCEPT replace the last number to 0)
nat=yes
Next, create an extension. Use SIP or IAX depending how you set up the ipkall account. Use whatever exten# you want. in the sip alias section use ipkall. Hit the submit button. Now click on the extension you just created. At the top of the page, click on Add Follow Me settings. I've set mine as follows:
Inital Ring Time: 1
Ring Strategy: ringall
Ring Time: 1
Follow Me List: Included only the extension number you just created
Leave everything else to default values.
Destination if no answer: Choose the destination in which you want the call delivered.
Lastly, do not have this extension registered to anything such as a softphone or ATA.
That's it.
Thanks for the reply, however, I've never setup Follow Me before and I am not sure whether it would work the way I want it.
Basically, in the past, I was using SIP for Ipkall to connect, but recently I am unable to get through. If I call my Ipkall # with my cellphone I will get a busy tone. When it was working, I had it setup exactly the way I want it. I configured an inbound route for it and use CID prefix to identify it and also utilize CID Superfecta to look up the CID. When someone call my ipkall # I would know which # they were calling, and I only allow it to ring to a specific extension. This was the way I want it, and it was great.
Now that SIP wasn't working for me anymore, I decided to switch it to IAX. Using the configuration by Videomakk, I was able to get call to get through. However I could not setup an inbound route to control the calls like I used to when I was using SIP. That the problem. By using Follow Me, would I be able to set it up like I used to? If not, is there other way to control the inbound calls from IPkall?
i am using trixbox vmplayer & ipkall using gizmo. everything was working fine but my system crashed . After new installation the Trixbox vmplayer i am not getting the incoming calls . It goes to the voice mail.
This is my incoming settings
host=proxy01.sipphone.com
username=17475592323
secret=good
type=user
fromuser=17475592323
qualify=yes
