[asterisk-users] WiFi SIP phones

 I am testing this phone as well. It does have some NAT issues but besides for that it works great. What I like about the phone is that you can use both WIFI and GSM at the same time. This I have not seen on many other phones. Most of them allow you to use the GSM or WIFI at once but not both at the same time.

  I work for ABP Technology and lurk on this list so I hope I'm not breaking any taboos...

  ABP is now carrying a dual GSM/Wifi phone.  We tested 2 models, 1 had Windows-CE on it.  Some reason we only have the Non-CE version public right now.

  I have a recent dual gsm /wifi from e28 via Skyvoice. (http://myskyvoice.com/) Its built to use voip or gsm and is about the same price as existing wifi phones. My main hassle is it doesn' yet do WPA - WEP's okay and they say WPA is only a firmware load away ;-) , and it has a browser to login if you need to.

   

  So far so good and then to some degree I am not sure I would use a wifi only phone again

   

  That said wifi voip is still occasionally flaky but I much prefer it to soft clients on the laptop.

   

  Cheers Duncan

  I travel a lot for work. I frequently find hotels that have wifi, free or otherwise available. But I've yet to find it anywhere near sufficient to support voip applications. At least not good enough to compel me to not use my cell phone. If you have control of the host LAN then you can ensure it meets the needs of a wifi SIP phone, otherwise why bother.

  Has anyone ever seen anyone making a voip call on a wif handset ata public hotspot? While that would score many geek points I doubt it would work in many places.

  About 18 mo ago I bought the Hitachi Cable WIP5000 handset. It was seriously flawed so I resold it after a few months and settled on the Aastra desk phone. I do wish the cordless handsets were a little more like a Panasonic cordless phone...more buttons...easier to program, etc.
