SIP phone issues with Belkin ADSL Wireless Router

Friday, August 31st, 2007

The old Linksys WAG54Gv2 died so I replaced it with a brand new Belkin F5D7633uk4A. Everything working fine except two SIP accounts on my Siemens Gigaset S450 IP (“Authentication error”). Also I got authentication errors and SIP 408 Timeout with X-Lite using the same SIP accounts.

Also, Belkin web interface can not manage static routes, which is bad.

Version info:

Runtime Code version F5D7633-4Av1_UK_1.00.17
Boot Code Version 1.0.37-5.15
Hardware Version V1.0J3
ADSL Modem Code Version A2pB018e.d16f

Looks like there’s a transparent SIP proxy running on the router. I could ssh with admin username and web interface password to the router. Finally found siproxd running!

How to disable siproxd:

siproxd disable
save
reboot

How to add a static route:

route add IP NETMASK GATEWAY
save

All available commands:

?
help
logout
reboot
adsl
atm
brctl
cat
ledctrl
df
dumpcfg
echo
ifconfig
kill
arp
defaultgateway
dhcpserver
dns
lan
passwd
ppp
remoteaccess
restoredefault
route
save
swversion
wan
ping
ps
pwd
siproxd
sntp
sysinfo
tftp
wlctl

New off-site backup solution – rsync.net

Saturday, June 16th, 2007

I signed up with rsync.net for an off-site filesystem. Opted for geo-redundant version (automated nightly replication to other site) located in Zurich, Switzerland. Very fast speed from Europe and Qatar, good speed with US hosts. Very easy to use from Mac OS X, FreeBSD, Linux and Windows (rsync, ftp, scp, sftp, ssh, WebDAV). Direct integration in Finder, just use “Connect to Server” and enter the hostname address with https. On Linux and FreeBSD 6.x sshfs works like a charm. Easy to install on FreeBSD using ports, just cd /usr/ports/sysutils/fusefs-sshfs and run make install clean.

Siemens Gigaset S450 IP

Tuesday, May 29th, 2007

Just replaced my C450 IP with S450 IP, mostly for multiple SIP accounts support.

Good things:
- can connect to up to six SIP accounts at the same time, plus gigaset.net
- can map SIP account and fixed line to DECT phones (both outgoing and incoming calls)
- reasonable DECT coverage
- NAT traversal using STUN
- works with asterisk
- S45 handset can be registered to multiple bases, allowing you to chose base or just best signal base

Bad things:
- can not choose what SIP account to use for outgoing calls on a call-by-call basis
- gigaset.net calls never worked for me
- R-key does not work with SIP
- no MWI (Message Waiting Indication) for VoIP calls
- slow handset response sometimes (tested with S45, C45 and C46 handsets)
- no automatic phonebook synchronization between handsets

One very interesting feature would be the possibility to use the Phone Line as a regular FXO port, allowing PSTN-to-VoIP and VoIP-to-PSTN calls.

Siemens Gigaset C450 IP

Thursday, May 24th, 2007

I’ve had my C450 IP for one month now. Pretty happy with it, good range (at least better than Panasonic and my old Gigaset A-series), stable SIP connection (after firmware upgrade), reasonable battery life. Works with Asterisk (except the R-key to hold/transfer VoIP calls, but you can set the key in features.conf; and MWI).

n-am.ro and nuam.ro domains

Saturday, May 19th, 2007

Just registered n-am.ro and nuam.ro domains.

Web sites are ‘parked’ for now until I choose what to put there.

E-mail web access at mail.n-am.ro.

Also, the Start Page at start.n-am.ro, Calendar at calendar.n-am.ro and Docs and Spreadsheets at docs.n-am.ro. For mail, nuam.ro is aliased to n-am.ro.

If you have ideas about web site content or want an e-mail address in these domains let me know :-) Same for mumu.ro domain.

DNS hosting kindly provided by EditDNS.

Cisco PPPoE client

Wednesday, July 12th, 2006

Quick mini-howto configure PPPoE client on Cisco IOS.

interface Ethernet0/1
no ip address
pppoe enable
pppoe-client dial-pool-number 1

interface Dialer1
mtu 1492
ip address negotiated
ip nat outside
encapsulation ppp
ip tcp adjust-mss 1452
dialer pool 1
dialer-group 1
ppp pap sent-username USERNAME password PASSWORD
ppp ipcp dns request

Ethernet0/1 = interface to PPPoE provider
USERNAME, PASSWORD = your assigned PPPoE username and password

Tested with RDS FTTH, at least with

C2600 Software (C2600-C-M), Version 12.3(19)

Check with show pppoe session, show interface dialer 1.

Do not forget about default route (and NAT if applicable).
