Justvoip does not appear to work with an ATA eg SPA3102.

Some people have reported success over on MoneySavingExpert,com, but so far
I have been unable to get it to work.

I have "sip.justvoip.com" as the proxy and the appropriate User ID and
Password.

It shows as registered but all I get is a single tone when I dial out.

Any help gratefully received

ISWYM. I can make a call from their dialer app but not from
my ATA

Thanks guys. It's just that I downloaded the client to have a look at it
and it says under the Caller ID tab: "Currently only mobile numbers can
be verified."

Before I invest anything in a second Betamax service, how does it work?
For example. on Voipdiscount you get an SMS containing a code to verify
mobile numbers and an online code to verify landlines. Is Voipcheap the
same?

They claim that, but I successfully authenticated my Tesco Internet Phone
number for caller ID just by following the steps in their softphone
application.
