Just tested with my Xperia Z2. Can successfully connect android SIP to connect1.plus.snap.net.nz, make and receive calls over wifi or data.

I think you can do this via the Fritz!App Fon app as well (without knowing the SIP auth details).

Awesome!! And sorry for my VOIP/SIP ignorance but I can set up three different mobiles as same?

Situation is I would like any one of three people in the household to be able to answer the "landline" on their own mobile. trying to hunt down a cordless to answer a call and then only to find a near flat battery drives me mad lol

The Fon app would be good for that as you can set it up only to register when you're on the home wifi. Not sure about multiple registrations but should work.

I have recently moved from mobile broadband to home broadband, no problems, however a big problem with home phone plus.
I have tried two new cordless phones with no connection success, first was a Uniden and the second that I still am trying with is a Panasonic KX-TGC220NZ, have gone through all the recommended procedures that I am aware of with no success, so much for the comments promoting this service...."With 2degrees Home Phone Plus, simply plug your existing home phone into your modem and then use it as you would an old school landline"
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

As a last resort ( of course ) I rang the help line, and found that our number had not been entered into the system, tut tut 2Degrees, all is now working.

eXDee: Just tested with my Xperia Z2. Can successfully connect android SIP to connect1.plus.snap.net.nz, make and receive calls over wifi or data.

Well, i have managed to pair a DECT phone direct to Fritz!box and set up Fritz1App Fon on three mobiles, although I can't find any option within the advanced menu to use over mobile data

I can't get sip to work either, keep getting following message, "Account registration unsuccessful: (transaction terminated): will try later"

Any advice?

I've got my android connected to my home line on the fritz box via Wifi at home

I use the CsipSimple app and followed some setup instructions I found in the fritz documentation for the fritz box

I set it up with the basic wizard in csipsimple and that work fine. After a while I noted that csip lost connection sometimes when returning to my home wifi and redoing the setup in the advanced wizard seems to have fixed that issue.

I haven't tries the mobile data yet, but it looks like fritz offer an equivalent to a DDNS server and suggest you user there service to connect to your fritz box over mobile data

Menu-Settings-Menu-Advanced-'In all networks' (Tick)

However you will need to setup 'myfritz' with the fritzbox and create a user with the right permissions.

The 'In all networks' option is not there at all, maybe it presents in the app once i setup fritz!box, will have a play tonight, thanks for the reply
