Configuring VOIP on a Netcomm NB9W

One thing fairly significant is missing from the Netcomm manual for the NB9W ADSL Modem / Router. It doesn’t tell you to check the “use outbound proxy” checkbox when configuring a VOIP service. I checked the manual for my isp that they provide on their site, their generic manual, and whatever else I could. So note to self: If you’re ever configuring a netcomm modem to use voip, check the outbound proxy setting and provide the same server as inbound, as below. This will make your life a whole lot easier :)

    Fascinating! I have been trying to get my NB9W and iinet voip connection stable for 2 years, and I think this will be a step forward. For a start, it now will work with the iinet recommended domain settings. Any ideas why my Panasonic DECT phone answering system fails to record a message? I have tried it on a std phone line and it works perfectly. With the above setup, it appears to record a message then loses it.
    Keep up the good work Mark!

    Sorry Neil, no ideas there. I use a Uniden unit and it works fine for me
