Yes, my mom can't use voip.ms for international calls right now, which is the only reason she has a voip.ms account, and using an IP address instead of server name seems to work intermittently.ArrowFlynn wrote: ↑
Anyway, for any FPL users in here frantically trying to troubleshoot why they can't reach VoIP.ms customers right now, don't bother.
Me too. Their twitter feed also explains how to update Windows Hosts file by adding an entry for their domain to access their website:ArrowFlynn wrote: ↑ Just to update, VoIP.ms' DNS host provider, Swiftvox, must have resolved or is close to fixing the problem.
I am now able to call my VoIP.ms contacts as well as load the website.
Code: Select all
173.231.187.61 voip.ms

We apologize for the inconvenience. Measures will be taken to further strengthen the network in the future but these cyber-terrorists are very stubborn. Some servers are DDoSed in the 10 gigabits range
That's the thing, I use FPL with my OBI200 at home, calls are made frequently. That's why I'm surprised that I received that notice.ArrowFlynn wrote: ↑ Why did you purchase World Credits if you can't use FPL at all?
Fill out a ticket, and get that straightened out:
If you buy a voip unlock key you still might be charged a dormant fee?ArrowFlynn wrote: ↑ Why did you purchase World Credits if you can't use FPL at all?
It requires 32 bit Java.
These instructions work for me: http://forum.fongo.com/viewtopic.php?f= ... 810#p74810.
Buy a VoIP unlock key and make outbound calls on an ATA, IP Phone, or SIP App.
You won't be charged if you never purchased world credits. Your free account will just be deactivated.
No, but your world credits can expire even if you buy a VoIP unlock key in the event you don't make an outbound call every 60 days.Shadow Rider wrote: ↑ If you buy a voip unlock key you still might be charged a dormant fee?
Yes but asking the very kind people who contribute on this forum never hurts, and this information will be available for future users.
It’s any outbound call that’s been picked up by the other end. You can prove your case by logging in at https://www.freephoneline.ca/callLogs. They should be able to see that on their end, I would imagine.
I didn't say or even suggest that it would hurt. I simply suggested that if you weren't getting an answer here it might be best to ask Fongo directly.
Another option I forgot to mention is Fongo's own support forum: https://forum.fongo.com/I just wanted to see if anyone could clarify if an outbound long distance call was required. Wording seems to imply any outbound call - so I will contact Fongo and follow up.
It is. I've been using it this morning.ArrowFlynn wrote: ↑ By the way, I think the VoIP.ms problem is fixed now, hopefully, based on email updates that customers were sent.
Yeah, their Twitter feed is red hot with irate customers, especially resellers who support businesses. And this time using explicit IPs doesn't seem to work.Temporel wrote: ↑ VoIP.ms is completely down at the moment: Web site and Point of Presence servers. First time in over 10 years that such an event occurs. Cyber attack they said yesterday. I can't reach the Web site to re-route my calls to my cell. Lesson learned, when it gets back up, I will program if unreachable go to cellular!
