333Good rates, good quality
However, about a year ago I attempted to use the service again and I've been using it ever since. It works great with my Sipura SPA-2100 and the G.711 codecs. The G.729 codec produces horrible call quality for me, but call quality is very good with the G.711's. On occasion there is a slight delay, but that is to be expected with VoIP.
333Re: newbie: Begging Help with Config
...after Gafachi contacted me (a month after my initial technical support request, as I was becoming irate, they finally acknowledged my existence). I found out that I had misunderstood a setting. In my own defense, it was poorly explained on the website, which has virtually no documentation.
The text on the website makes it sound as if IP authentication is a fallback option, in case MD5 is not working. I was trying anything and everything to make the system work, so I provided every available piece of information I could give. I filled in this setting. Here's the actual text of the www.gafachi.com website:
"Configuration on this page applies to Termination (outbound calls) only. By default our network requires calls to be authenticated via MD5. If your equipment/software is incapable of this, and you would like to use IP-based authentication, you can enter your IP Address(es) below."
After which, I was doomed.
Finally tech support wrote me this:
"If you do not have a static IP address, you must remove these IP addresses from our system. If IP-based authentication is setup in our system, this will over ride MD5 authentication. Xten X-lite softphone is capable of authenticating via MD5."
And then the light dawned! Ahhhh.... I am now making phone calls. CHEAP phone calls. Cheap, good quality phone calls.
Thanks!!
