Can it be possible, that they check the serial number in any way? That would be the only information, which cannot be sent by an ATA or pap.

You might be on to something... I haven't gotten around to finding my MJ yet, but I'll watch the conversations between the software and the proxy see whats going on. But if the password has changed multiple times today, we might be SOL.

ok ive witnesses something that may help! my old proxy was proxy1.stlouis.talk4free.com the one that came up today when i grabbed the info is proxy01.stlouis.talk4free.com and i can recieve incoming but cant make outgoing calls!

Did everyone having trouble change the user agent?

Today when I woke up my MJ line was no longer registered. I pulled the new SIP credentials that contained a new password and user agent. I did switch the password and the user agent to the obtained using Stroths MJ Suite. After updating the RTP300 with this information I was able to call out. A couple hours later I cannot dial out. After dialing the number I immediately get a busy signal. The ATA is still registered and capable of receiving incoming at this time. The proxy is proxy1.miami.talk4free.com

Although the proxy names have changed, they still resolve to the same ip address. Same for the Miami proxy which is what I am using. I tried putting in the IP only, but still unable to connect with my PAP2.

Maybe they are doing some type of provisioning using serial numbers from the dongle. They are suppose to be porting numbers over starting this month so maybe this is the first step.

Yes, for example.

proxy01.columbus.talk4free.com
proxy1.columbus.talk4free.com

both ping 66.104.96.198.

Just like everyone else 1 of my mj stopped registering, plugged dongle in it did an update. when I pulled the new sip credentials my password had changed but now there is not a proxy server listed, when before it showed proxy01.nashville.talkforfree.com.

Dongle still works, but nothing else will allow me to register. I am assuming it is proxy related.[/list]

new user of pap2 got it going saturday just changed the pw and back online
how often do they change passwords??

I assume u mean SIP domain. Mine was always set to that and it has no effect for me.

At any right as of now, no Voip light and no connection. This was loading the new softphone and attempting to get pw again. I got the same pw but this apparently unregistered the ATA (hopefully temporary as I have faith on the hackers here).

Now back to working on my dialing plan. I can't dial any 1 800 #'s from my ata

Enjoy , I'll keep snooping the traffic , lets see if this helps.

Dial plan change AAA to your area code.

(*xx|911|<411:18004664411>|[235678]11!|<:1AAA>[2-9]xxxxxx|1xxx[2-9]xxxxxxS0|<:1>[2-9]xx[2-9]xxxxxxS0)

I updated my password and ensured my realm was set, I also updated my version number to the latest version. I also updated the proxy1 to proxy01 in my registration string. Astrisk can now receive calls, but when I dial out I get fast busy.

Has anyone been able to get outbound calling working again?

So far my Linksys PAP2T is down with two mj's, but eyebeam softphone is working with a 3rd mj and no need to change password.

No change the domain name of the ata itself not the sipdomain.

Also set the serial number of your magicjack to the hostname or name the hostname MagicJack.

The traffic from the mj doesn't send the serial yet which can easily be faked in firmware

Changed hostname on system page to MagicJack and domain to talk4free.com on system page also.
not working yet.

I am about to start using an ATA but i just compared the sip info I got a few weeks back to the one after I did the update, and the only thing that changed on mine was the user agent.

on may 25 the user agent was:
User-Agent = MagicJack/1.80.466c (SJ Labs)

on June 9 the user agent is:
User-Agent = User-Agent: MagicJack/1.80.484a (SJ Labs)

looks as lough they added User-Agent: in front of the old information.

Unfortunately I do not think that is what causing registration failures.

Srvctek, can you post that old version of the sip info grabber?

No luck on asterisk, even using the extracted new SIP creds:

same here in New york, look like they try to looking for the serial # of the MJ now

Dunno if it's a serial number but maybe a MAC address. I would think the Dongle would have a Mac Address. Wonder how we can get serial or Mac address and if we can get it where to put it.

Im down to. Been running my ATA for a LONG time now, and today, nothing. New password isnt working for me.

Wonder what they have done? May have to switch to skype

i have a magicjack working on pap2t till this morning and i found there was a new password and then i changed the password and it worked fine

my uncle has the same setup his password got changed too but after updating his on the ATA it is not working

but mine is working just fine

my magicjack dongle is older than his i wonder if its the issue. Any updates on this is really appreciated

if you have success in registering, can you post some screen shots of your configs. It might be a simple value we do not have in place. Please black out your reg info tho

If I can find a place to post my "log" from the spaconf tool ill post it up.

http://pastebin.com/m520f192e used one that didn't copy the numbers for those non unix users.

Domingo,

Tried your settings, but still no go. I am using a PAP2 v1. Wonder if the PAP2 version makes any difference?

that sux! my test trixbox is out of luck too....

changing the passwrd & proxy setting is not working with adapter.

those who got it working , what all changes you have made


User-Agent = User-Agent: MagicJack/1.80.484a (SJ Labs)

should we put User-agent also or just MagicJack/1.80.484a (SJ Labs)

different version on pap2t don't make a difference
since i tried my uncle's credential on my ATA and still no go

the difference between mine and my uncle his phone number is a different area code and he has a different proxy server

i am wondering if thats the case some proxies are not working or something

they are doing upgrades. you cant even log into the on line account. voice quality is all of a sudden choppy. definitely doing something on their side.

here is a thing

when i did pull the credentials on mine
the password was changed

and the USER agent here is how the new and old looked like

old User-Agent = MagicJack/1.80.466c (SJ Labs)

new User-Agent = MagicJack/1.80.484a (SJ Labs)

now on my uncle's his old one is like mine

but his new one is User-Agent = User-Agent MagicJack/1.80.484a (SJ Labs)

his new is different than mine

I am an Asterisk user--same problems as others are having. IDEA: when i plug in MJ, I notice traffic going to notify.magicjack.com as well as web3.magicjack.com, on port 80. I never researched this his pre-update/crisis to confirm that this is new, but I wonder if the new software does some sort of port 80 communication to whitelist/enamble the MJ's registration. Has anyone wiresharked this? If I were the MJ admin that's exactly what I'd do--An ACL based on some out-of-band (non sip) communications. I'd do it myself and post the answers here but I've not yet had a chance to get wireshark running on my perimeter firewall.

Well I was about to let my Magic Jack subscription expire and toss the thing when I stumbled upon the SIP hack. Suddenly I could actually use the service, no dropped calls, decent sound quality, no more irritating window popping up for me to minimize whenever an incoming call came, it actually got me to renew my service and now it seems the good times may be up. I've spent some time this evening messing with it and haven't come up with anything others here haven't. Here's hoping people find a "fix", otherwise I'll use up the rest of my international minutes and go back to using my cellphone for all my calls. Funny thing is it seems somewhat counterproductive for them to actively block this sort of thing. They were getting money out of me for the yearly service and for the international minutes, I wasn't using it much at all, maybe a few quick calls a week, and even when using it as intended, I'd always minimize the window as soon as it popped up so I never saw any ads anyway. Ah well. I wonder if they'll have any customers left? lol

"I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced."

I'm in the process of wiresharking now from the windows PC - I still need to shark from my asterisk (linux) box, but I did notice a realm="stratus.com" in the authorization string. Changing my sipdomain or fromdomain in sip.conf to this had no effect, however.

I noticed the same thing. I also placed it in the domain field in the PAP2 with no effect.

I posted the whole working config on pastebin , just use the link.

I will wireshark a vm for it. I didn't see many changes since I started playing with my first one.

Domingo,

I tried your config file on my PAP2 v1 with no success. What PAP2 version are you running?

Hi all,

I made following changes to get it to register ( I saw the SIP registration done by MJ software using Wireshark and tried to copy it )

Used OB Proxy to proxy01.boston.talk4free.com:5070
Domain as talk4free.com
User Agent as : MagicJack/1.80.484a (SJ Labs)

KEY one is set Register expires to 0 - that is the change that made it work...

But still not incoming and outgoing calls but I see successful registration.

If I change the Register expires to any other value registration fails...

Hope somebody else can use this info to see how to get incoming an outgoing calls....

edit: changing register expires to 0 does not work, it only gives you a dial tone.

I would respectfully suggest that this tactic, which is tantamount to a Denial of Service attack on the YMAX infrastructure, will clearly place you in the crosshairs of the YMAX security department. They know where you and your MJ live!!!

Changing the dial plan to the fields above fixed ATA on my SPA-2102!!

Thanks!!!

Yea, this is an issue. The register fails here and using 0 won't work at all, even though you get your dial tone.

If anyone actually has gotten the pap2 working again, can you please post the changes you made?

Under a PAP2 where do I change the domain to talk4free.com?

I've confirmed the register expires to 0 works. I have proxy1.losan..., domain as talk4free.com and host name as MagicJack.

Didn't setting the register expire to 0 in the past mean that you would eventually lose connection and MJ will assume that your line is dead? Could someone else confirm this? I'll start watching to see when I go offline.

On my MTA 6328-2Re ATA when I change registration expires from 3600 to 0 and Save, it doesn't even take, it still says 3600. changing it to 1 will take but no registration for me. There is no place to enter domain name or hostname.

The only thing we have is a config file that can , perhaps be modified so if anyone knows what to change here, please post:

Thinking about that now, it should have no effect. Changing the domain is simply changing the domain the box looks for...meaning your router if you have one.

So both of us are still waiting on a solution...my usb is back in...an my call quality is crappy again.

In PAP2 where do you put Domain name and host name ? In Innomedia I have Domain name as talk4free.com. It does not register with the latest pw.. I am concerned to change the Register elapse number below 60

anant wrote:In PAP2 where do you put Domain name and host name ? In Innomedia I have Domain name as talk4free.com. It does not register with the latest pw.. I am concerned to change the Register elapse number below 60

domain is located under system, I believe. Don't bother changing the register elapse. Someone will eventually figure out what MJ changed to break the ATA

In reference to wondabwoy's earlier question. I believe the MJinfo tool srvctek sucessfully used, can be found here (I haven't tried it though since it apparently requires Vista):
http://www.4shared.com/file/78839246/30 ... JInfo.html

On my first successful attempt, the User Agent string was:

User Agent: MagicJack/1.80.484a (SJ Labs)

But later attempts show

MagicJack/1.80.484a (SJ Labs)

No more leading "User Agent: ", password remains unchanged and I can't register.

Good to hear... Someone else posted that they weren't able to get the sip creds after the update.

Whats the new agent string look like?

MJinfo is the easiest way, it still works perfectly after this update

Hi there I am new here but Have a few observations to add

MJ seems to update quite abit or it is just my connection. Any way sometimes i get the message requires an update. And if my internet connection is slow on starting up I get an error and it sits there so I close MJ and I have a old update in my documents I exe that and my MJ works and it is good.

Sometimes it will load no problem but I can't call in or out so i have to reload

My personal thughts is this thing has a mind of it's own I am so baffled by it

This is really strange. I had my frineds SIP info from his MJ that he barely uses and inputted into line 2 of my WRP400 router and it worked fine with registering. I have not tried to make a phone call since I did this remotely from work. He has not taken the update. I am thinking that maybe the SIP info that is being extracted might be "incorrect".

Somebody knows whats going on ????????????????
Credentials changed right Agent name too
but either with that info its not working
change the registry time to 0 it registers
but no calls out or in .. only registers somebody HELP !!!!!!

I would guess changing the registry time to 0 is just fooling your PAP2 into thinking it's registered because at 0 it never actually gets a chance to register???

you got a point there...
So any news on what exactly has been changed, or what prevents us from using our byod's?
