Nokia E71, XS4ALL and SIP
November 13th, 2009
My Internet provider, XS4ALL, offers me the possibility to use a free SIP account. This is especially useful when travelling abroad. I can call to the Netherlands with the SIP accounts. This saves me a lot of money compared to calling with my regular cell phone.
I often hard reset my phone, so all settings will be gone. Sometimes I forget to backup my phone first before giving it a hard reset. After resetting the phone to its factory default settings, I always struggle with configuring the SIP account again. So here is the manual……finally:
- Go to Menu –> Tools –> Settings –> Connection –> SIP Setting;
- Create a new account
- Profile name: XS4ALL
- Service Profile: IETF
- Default Access Point: none (I choose the correct access point manually)
- Public name: <SIP phone number>@sip.xs4all.nl
- Use compression: No
- Registration: When needed
- Use security: No
- Proxy Server
- Registrar server
- Next go to Menu –> Tools –> Settings –> Connection –> Internet telephone
- Create a new profile
- Name: XS4ALL
- SIP profiles: XS4ALL
Now you have, besides making a voice or video call, the opportunity to make an Internet call.
