View Full Version : Are multiple VoIP accounts at the same time possible?

Now that there is a solution for VoIP available I can't help but get greedy ;) So far I used a softphone with multi provider support for this task, but now I wonder: Is it possible to use two different providers at the same time? Right now I am helping myself by switching by hotkey assigned cab files (which works pretty well btw), but what I am really looking for is using one provider for inbound calls and the others for outbound telephony. There are of course providers which can act as a proxy for others, but that solution never really worked out for me as many voip vendors seem to block these attempts (especially pointing a finger at SipGate here :P). So, is there any solution for handling multiple providers?

Theoreticall, they are "Backup SIP Settings" you can provision in Windows Mobile 6. Just look at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa926605.aspx.

Having only one working VOIP provider, I haven't tried this yet.
However, the format of the XML provisioning is very similar to the one I posed in 299950.
You just have to replace parm name="SIPSettings" by parm name="BackupSIPSettings".

If you try it out, please report here.

Thanks.

The CAB installs fine, but there is no difference between installing a new provider with just "SIPSettings" and "BackupSIPSettings" I tried this with Arcor and SIPGate to test ut whether both incoming numbers would be available at the same time.
