Configuring Telephone App for MAC OS X via BT VoIP/api.home

SmartMarketing — Thu, 16 Aug 2012 15:09:02 GMT

I have been trying to configure the "Telephone" app on my iMac to use the VoIP line on my BT2700HGV router. The line has been configured and activated and is currently diverted to our landline but I would like to be able to make/answer calls via headset & mic on my iMac. Unfortunately the iMac does not have a phone socket to plug directly into the router phone socket, but it is hardwired via Cat 5e into one of the RJ45 ports.

The apps Accounts page in the Preferences dialogue box asks for the following information:

1. Description: this is self generating and is composed of 4 & 3 below: 05603******@api.home

2. Full Name: firstname surname

3. Domain: api.home

4. User Name: 05603******

5. Password: router serial number

I've tried configuring the OutboundProxyServer without success:

SIPOutboundProxyAddress=[www.bbvservice-5603**.bt.com]

Has anyone configured this App on MAC OS X before that could suggest where I'm going wrong?

Did you ever get a fix for this - I've just installed a BT Voip with falcon set and want to manage it via my iMac
