WinMo Softphone App

Post by RyanS107 »

Is there a Windows Mobile Softphone app that anyone has working with their MagicJack SIP settings? I have tried PortSIP and have not been able to get it to register. I see that some iPhone users have Siphon working now....what can we learn from them to make this work on Windows Mobile phones?? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!

There are any number of very capable sip softphones for the Windows Mobile platform. You have 2 tasks ahead of you after you find an appropriate sip client:
1-Finding your SIP credentials and...
2-establishing a net presence where the mjmd5 program is available with a clean connection to your phone. Relative easy connecting locally, rather challenging from remote wifi spot and nearly impossible via wireless broadband due to latency issues that will negatively impact your voice quality even if you are able to sort out the routing issues back to the machine serving the mjmd5.

Contact my pal Rudy at nofax (at)usa.com. He is alpha testing a program that supports remote usage of your MJ account by just running his software and calling your MJ phone number. This keeps it strictly in the phone arena and no fiddling with networking complications.
Good Luck
