One I really like is the idefsk version that was a zip file, you could extract the file configure the softphone, zip it up and email it out. Saved the headache of walking someone through the process and even ran of thumb drives.

Hi,<br><br>Here is the situation.. My Dad is working on contract in overseas.. He<br>has internet access in his hotel.. He wants to be able to talk to my Mum<br>but the calls are expensive..<br><br>I have an asterisk box setup for my business and it has a public IP
<br>etc.. My Mum has access to a working phone extension on this box..<br><br>I got my Dad to install X-Lite but for some reason it won't register and<br>trying to talk him through working out whats wrong is proving to be
<br>difficult.. Also I haven't used a softphone in years.. It could be the<br>NAT in the hotel, it could be a firewall or any number of things that<br>can cause these issues.. It could even be X-Lite or something running on
<br>his PC..<br><br>So I am looking for a softphone thats really simple to setup and as<br>foolproof as possible..<br><br>If SIP is likely to be problematic to setup then I have no problem<br>getting him to use IAX but will need suggestions of which IAX softphone
<br>to use and also how to configure it in the iax.conf (haven't done this<br>before)..<br><br>Any suggestions welcome and appreciated..<br><br>Thanks..<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>--Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by
