Adding a New Carrier FAIL

[Bentfinger]

I have been using Vitelity as an outbound carrier with no problems, but as My call volume is increasing they are getting pricey. I set up an account with Gafachi, and got a much better rate, and set up a carrier in my Vici but I cannot seem to get it to work. Gafachi says I am broadcasting an iP address I do not recognize, but when i do ifconfig, I get the correct Bcast ID. (as follows, eth 0 being hard coded to an external IP, Eth1 for internal traffic, 192.168.1.119 reserved for the ViciBox)

eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:19:D1:A8:8C:FD

The carrier settings I got from Gafachi are:

Sorry, no time tonight for an indepth: but your sip.conf file should have this in it:

Code: Select all

externip=67.78.18.78

The SIP protocol as it is used in many places requires your external IP address to be specified when you are using a private network.

PS: We only charge $25 to set up a carrier for a client for standard carriers. Gafachi is often touchy, but usually fits within that fee. They are a small but good company and usually quite cooperative even though their settings are not always "normal". LOL
