Bt Blocking Swyx ?

Recommended Posts

Hi


 


I have a few users whose ISP is BT in the UK.


After they connect to VPN and then try logging in to Swyx, they get the screen where communication is shown being attempted between two PC's. And, a few minutes later, the actual Swyxit view appears ( with the speed dials, etc. ) and LOGGED OFF is shown at the bottom. You cannot click on any of the options in the middle and can only choose FILE > LOGON , which repeats the process.


 


Are BT blocking SIP traffic, thereby causing Swyxit clients to not connect to our Swyx server ?


 


The same users do not have any problems when they connect via our office WiFi or via another ISP's network.


 


Thanks.

Hi Tom


 


We use the regular Windows VPN, nothing fancy like Cisco VPN, etc.


The Windows firewall is at the default settings and there are no other firewalls enabled.



When going via the BT router, Swyx refuses to connect . But, if a user connects  via BT Hotspot , Swyx works.


I have also set port forwarding 5060 on the router itself but this has not helped.

Robvha, your suggestion worked brilliantly!


 


I have done port forwarding on the user's BT router and Swyxit now works! She was connected to the router’s regular WiFi network and not Bt Wifi with Fon hotspot


 


This is the fix :


Login to router on 192.168.1.254 from a browser


Go to Settings > Advanced settings


Go to Port forwarding > Supported applications > Click on Add new game or app


 


Let’s call it SIP for example.


Adjust the settings as below :


PROTOCOL     PORT RANGE    TRANSLATE TO


TCP                 5070-5170            5070-5170


UDP                 5070-5170            5070-5170


 


Hit Apply and then disconnect and reconnect to VPN.


Open Swyxit and then login.

EDIT!


 


BT , the ISP, seems to have blocked the ports!


 


Now, I get the following on trying to conenct with Swyxit 2015 :


 


User name - X


Server name - Xserver


Try to log on


Unregistered : x


Unregistered : x


503 server unavailable - No matching transport found - x


503 server unavailable - No matching transport found - x


800706ba The RPC server is unavailable
