New Toy: GVOut Google Voice Outgoing Proxy Dialer (Windows)

richardtaur · Post by **richardtaur** » Sun Aug 02, 2009 2:09 am

Followed the instruction... I did get busy tone after I dialed the number. My X-Lite did register it through my computer. But, I didn't get my GV calls back. What else can I tsht the issue?

Thanks,

I was thinking, for those with MJ set up on an ATA, such as PAP2T, with DD-WRT/MJMD5....is it not possible to just access your GV outbound dialing by creating a dial plan?

In the example situation where your GV number is 2125551212, MJ number is 3134441313, and you MJ number is registered as a GV forwarding number and you have the GV Settings set so your MJ number has direct access to your VM, without entering a PIN:
It seems that you should be able to create a dial plan on the PAP2T that begins something like

(<:12125551212PP2>[2-9]xx[2-9]xxxxxx|
"PP2" being Pause, Pause, and the no.2 (2 pauses for the time to get to the point in GV where you can dial out, and the no.2 being the digit used to initiate callout in GV).

Then, you would have to find a way to write the "#" termination character into the string, I'm guessing.

I admit that I am a much better direction follower than innovator when it comes to dial plans and the like. I guess I'm just putting this out there because I've had not much luck getting this to work on the ATA and I've seen some of the brilliant stuff that AZ, Magicdump and the other near geniuses on here seem to be able to figure out. Best solution I've come up with is a top of the list Speed Dial setting on my office phone that dials my GV number Pause Pause 2.

Maybe but the whole point is to be able to use it on a service where only incoming calls are free.

I was thinking...there's a thread on this forum, of people who have been
limited to incoming calls on Magicjack because they ostensibly talked too
much. MJ imposed a no-outgoing (unless you pay .01/min) limit on them,
but they still get incoming calls. It seems your same basic strategy could
be used to get around their issues, don't you think? The magicjack
server would just have to be proxied in the LMHOSTS file, to point to
your proxy. Then the Gizmo5 (that GoogleVoice forwards to), would be
forwarded to their MJ. Eh? ...or could you just go from GoogleVoice to MJ?

Yes that would work you could just do GV + MJ.

Well, az1324 you did it again! lol I really need to start learning how to program, lol. Anyways, I actually recognized your work on a different site:
http://forums.slickdeals.net/showthread.php?t=1471803

Not to say that I am not appreciative which I and many others are, but is there a way to have GVOUT connect the call, instead of having the user hang up? How hard would this be?

EDIT: lol AZ1324, that's you on Slickdeals...Hi!

Well I did consider that but I'm not sure if it's possible without proxying the RTP stream. I would have to do some more research into the SIP protocol. It works well enough for my purposes so maybe someone else can provide some info. Also, there is already a way to do this and bridge the calls if you are running Asterisk. I posted a link to the script in this thread.

I get your point, and wasn't trying to hijack the thread. Just was brainstorming to find better ways to dial out w GV, being that for the most part we are all MJ users here.

Check this free Soft Phone with 6 Lines, and a lot of tricks I have test it and work excellent with Gizmo5, Sipgate, Voxox.

http://www.nch.com.au/talk/index.html

I am using Sipgate for all my incoming an outgoing on Google Voice for now, because of the 3 free hours you get when you open a new account, and also because you can spoof your outgoing number i let it ring twoo times and they will call me back so I can save my outgoing min.

But it will be nice if someone can have the Proxy working in the DD-WRT router!!!

Thanks az1324

Josemiami · Post by **Josemiami** » Sun Aug 02, 2009 5:33 pm

I have tested the Proxy on the Express Talk Soft Phone, and Xlite, and it works good with Gizmo5 and Sipgate, So I can get rid of Gizmo5 now.

Thank you again

Sorry guys - I'm usually good at this but the ATA is not registering for me.

Do I put in anything for UN/PW in ATA?? Or just the 192.168.X.X in the proxy stuff? Do you need to specify outbound proxy for this to work?

What phone number do I enter in the proxy PC program?? 1747XXXXXXX (Gizmo 5) or my local GV number? The other fields seem self-explanatory where I would enter sipgate.com for Sipgate or proxy01.sipphone.com for G5. Right?

Please, step by step - this will be a great alternative once they change the MJ pw. Great stuff! (once I can get it to work)

TIA,

This is the setup I am using with my PAP2T using sipgate:

GVOut Proxy running in my laptop:

Port 5060

SIP Server sipgate.com

Phone my SipGate Phone Number

GV Username My GV Username

GV Password My GV Password

Setting in PAP2T

Proxy sipgate.com

Outbound Proxy 192.168.169.105:5060 (My Laptop IP Address)

Register yes

Register Expires 600

Use Outbound Proxy yes

Password Your sipgate password

Auth ID Your Sipgate User ID

User Id Your Sipgate User ID

Use Auth ID yes

It also works for Gizmo5, but I will refuse to use it for what they doing to us.

BTW Sipgate is a free more complete service with 3 Hrs free credits for dialing out, but it will cost you nothing doing this click to call, running the Proxy in your computer is like a free inbound call.

For anyone than don't know just open a free account here:

http://www.sipgate.com/

Now I can dial out all my contact number from my cordless Phone.

Just waiting for this Proxy running on the DD-WRT, so I can turn my laptop off.

Thank you again

synchron · Post by **synchron** » Mon Aug 03, 2009 1:21 am

My MTA 6328-2re has :

SIP Proxy:
Use outbound proxy (checkbox)
SIP Domain:
Registration Expiration Time.

I've always put the same thing in both fields for proxy and domain - guess I'll change one to proxy01.sipphone.com

Do I need to reenable GV in G5 account as well?

BTW, sipgate isn't exactly free - they are charging me $1.90 1st of every month for mandatory e911 fee even if I never use thir 1.9c/min dial out.
My current balance is $-1.78 (lol)

Ok so who knows more about SDP? I want to bridge the calls without creating an endpoint. Is it possible? Here's what I'm trying but I can't get it to work. Granted I am kind of blindly stabbing in the dark. Guess I should go read up on SDP.

No unless you want to give G5 access to your account on GV, they can pull your money out of your GV account in case you own them any money by having your log in info. You don't need it because you are not calling out, the proxy is doing the click to call from GV, you will only have inbound calls.

I have test it and it work without the activation.

Thanks for the tip!

Grrr I was able to get it to register with GVOut proxy but w/ Gizmo, I get one short ring and disconnect. Going through the mysipswitch route, phone won't ring at all with either me disconnect after "busy" or GV website. The sipswitch call log, does, however, show a 200 OK status and a phone call that lasts always 58 seconds even though I never hear the ring.

Once again, grrr.......

P.S. VoxOx can also be use.

Yes and no. It's not exactly the same. With GVOut you have to hang up and wait for the return call. The NerdVittles method involves putting the parties in a conference, without the need to hang up. I do think GVOut is simpler to set up, but the Asterisk way is simpler for day to day usage. I'm hoping that AZ1324 can understand how they merged the calls and maybe integrate that into GVOut.

Which reminds me, does anyone have an answer to his question?

Good point but I don't really mind, there is almost no waiting and it works fine for me.

Just waiting for new code to run it in my DD-WRT.

Thank you for clear that up.

az1324 · Post by **az1324** » Mon Aug 03, 2009 2:27 pm

I've known the Asterisk solution since last week but seems overkill to run asterisk just to call out. Plus GVOut can be ported to a much smaller package to run on routers. Bridging calls should be possible with a little more code, but I don't really want to spend too much time on it so I'm waiting for some expert help.

aakimenko · Post by **aakimenko** » Mon Aug 03, 2009 4:49 pm

For some reason it doesn't work when I use my gmail username or [email protected]. I get busy signal and no call back...

On the other hand [email protected] works fine.

What a great program, all we need now is DD-WRT version!

PS: G5 - what a shameful deception in regard to GV integration.

Need help:

MY PAP2T is not registering with Sipgate. I think I have filled in data correctly.

My desktop PC IP address is : 192.168.XX.YYY

With all parameters input into PAP2T being the same:

PAP2T registers with Outbound proxy: sipgate.com and Inbound calls work. OUT calls need credit.
At this stage I created an account for SIPGATE phone in GV and GV activated the phone.

PAP2 doen not register with Outboundproxy: 192.168.XX.YYY or with
192.168.XX.YYY:5060
I do not know what is happening. Tried several several times. I need help.

I have enterd in GVOUT:

Port: 5060
Sip Server: 192.168.XX.YYY:5060
Phone: 1-415-xxx-yyyy
GV Username: as to access GV

Password Your sipgate password

Auth ID Your Sipgate User ID

User Id Your Sipgate User ID

Use Auth ID yes

You don't need to put the pot for your computer address because it is included in the GVOUT proxy.
And the Sipgate phone number does not need the country prefix (1).

You don't need to have credits on sipgate because you wont be dialing out. GVOut will make a click to call connection for you. So technically
you will be receiving inbound calls only.

Thanks for your prompt reply. I have followed your Aug 1 post and inputed the parameters as indicated.

These are my inputs copied from my system as entered.

I have obtained the IP address of my desktop as 192.168.16.zzz ( using Run -> cmd > ipconfig /all ) on my desktop

In GVOUT.exe:

Port: 5060

Sipserver: sipgate.com

sipphone #: 1-415-xxx-YYYY
GV userid: used to access GV
GV pw: as used to access GV

and saved the settings.

Note: GV has activated the above phone # for SIPGATE.

In PAP2T:

sip port: 5060
proxy: sipgate.com
Outboundproxy: 192.168.16.zzz:5060 and also tried without :5060
Register: Yes
Register Expires: 600
Use Outbound proxy: Yes

Note: It does not register with Outboundproxy: 192.168.16.zzz:5060 or with 192.168.16.zzz

It registers just by replacing the above with sipgate.com or leave it blank.

Kindly peruse the above for a few mins and see if you can identify my problem. I have spent almost 3 hrs but in vain.

I realize this is a fantastic application if I can make it work. I tried the above settings with VOXOX I found identical problem in registration.
I definitely need further guidance.

Thanks in anticipation.

The moment I replace my proxy : 192.168.16.zzz ( as in my earlier post) by sipgate.com PAP2T immediately registers. and I get a dial tone and receive INBOUND calls. Of course this requires funding the account to make OUTBOUND calls.

Some times you have to stop and start the proxy and then try making a call and see if the light is coming on on the ATA.

Also go to the Sipgate account and in the bottom of the page should be a link help_center, in the next page should be a list of devises select PAP2 and it should give you pics with you own PAP2 config double check every thing, I know yous reg withot the proxy but just to make sure everything is OK.
Also you may want to try it with xlite or other soft phone and see if the proxy is running OK in your computer.

Good luck.

I tried both with no difference. Since X-Lite is running on the same machine as GVOut, I believe 127.0.0.1 would be the correct way to get to it.
