MOIP

[estam]

Hi I am a newbbie and trying to set up the XM software (Exetel Mobile VOIP) so I can access my VOIP through my mobile. Had no problems installing and setting up the software om my mobile but can't seem to get a registration confirmation. I think the problem is with my mobile which is an Nokia N97. This phone was not on the list of compatible phones on the application form, but the N96 was. I sent a couple of emails to support and was told it should be OK. Hoping some one can advise me on this. Thanks

I've asked someone competent to reply to you.

Hi,

Unfortunately the ExeMOIP application isn't compatible with the Symbian S60 5th Edition OS that is installed on the N97.

Cheers

After careful research, I would look at upgrading the N97 (if it is not already) to firmware v20.0.019 and then installing the Native SIP client SIPv 3.0

NOTE: I do not own a N97. I have not tried this nor do I endorse the instructions at the above website.

I do run the Native SIP client on my Nokia E71 and find it much better than any of the ExeMOIP, FRING, NIMBUZZ etc. clients that are available.
For SMS I use Colby SMS which can be found at

Thank you for your responses and helpful advice. I'll tinker around with the solutions suggested albeit slowly and with trepidation.

Thanks for the information. Glad I asked. I am in a marginal area for signal just now so hope that the call quality improves when I get back to the city. I have an N95 phone with Exetel VOIP software.

From your replies it seems that signal strength is the only variable?

Yes, when it comes to mobile broadband signal strength play a major role.
