I'm trying to test the service with IPKall but I can't seem to get past IPKall's registration page.
IPkall is asking for SIP number. I typed in "my-username-gotten-from-ekiga"@ ekiga.net but it gives me the error below. So I typed in my SIP number as " alias-number-gotten-from-simbroker.com"@ekiga.net and I am using freevoip.fonosip.com as the SIP proxy but when I hit submit it still tells me the same error: "PLEASE ENTER A VALID SIP NUMBER.. Can anyone help me with this? I need to complete this to have a better understanding of how this all works. Thanks in anticipation of any swift response. Justin.
