I have thru the years have had a lot of SIP accounts that I used with my softphones running on my computer.
I am wondering how I can connect this phone or voip phones in general that I buy (hardphones) with my internet SIP account that I signed up for and used awhile ago with my softphone. One of my accounts is on GetOnSip so I have the info domain , ip ,...etc.
Is it possible ? If so is it possible for all voip hardphones to do it or not ?
Basically is it some button/setting in the voip hardphone I press to allow me to type in the info that will connect me to my GetOnSip account.
I have to say I have seen it done connecting the ip phone to a asterisk based system inside the network as well as cisco's unified communicator software or something like that but this stuff doesn't apply for me since I am so small asterisk based system would be over kill. And I am going to be directly connecting it more or less to a router or directly to the cable modem rj45 jack. So it would depend on the ISP end for my ability to connect my phone to the outside world.
Question 2
If I can't get this phone to connect to my SIP internet accounts then what do I have to get from my ISP provider to allow my hardphone that is plugged into my router which is connected to there leased cable modem to make phone calls to people. Like is this a different type of services I have to sign up with with them like business class or something ? Right now my setup is old phone runs into cable modem thru rj11 jack on modem so this is a semi-voip but now I want to just go out thru the internet rj45 WAN connection. My current service is using the rj11 jack on the cable modem that is where my confusion is ...
Any help would be great. I would imagine all I would have to do is call them and ask them to switch everything on to the rj45 WAN connection that is internet as well as phone goes thru the same wire thru the tcp/ip stack. Though I am unsure I will beable to keep my number sense this number I have represents a local POTS landline number... though it goes thru my modem so it seems like it is voip....
Confused a little
