Setting up C475IP with Sipgate - help please

tinnews@isbd.co.uk

I have received my Siemens C475IP phones today, impressed so far.

I have them working with my BT POTS line and with sipdiscount but I
can't get them set up with sipgate. I suspect it's just finger
trouble but could do with some help.

The fields that the VOIP set up on the C475IP wants are:-

Authentication Name:
Authentication Password:
Username:
Display name:

What I have with my Sipgate account are:-

SIP-ID:
Password:
Nickname:

So how do I map these onto what the C475IP wants?


Also the C475IP wants:-

Domain:

For sipgate is this just sipgate.co.uk which is the same as the
Registry and the Proxy? (for sipdiscount Domain: makes more sense).

Aha, thank you, that's what I had wrong. It seems odd to put the
SIP-ID in two places, but there you go. Registered with both
sipdiscount and sipgate now.

I'm very pleased so far, the C475IP seems to fulfil lots of my
requirements.

One minor niggle, is it going to flash that red light at me all the
time?
