VPN Service

If you want to hide all communication from your local network provider you can dial into our VPN service. All data packets will be encapsulated into a tunnel ending in our data center from where they enter your PBX or pass into public Internet. Configuration is as follows:

VPN type	PPTP
VPN name	your choice
VPN server	www#.pbxes.com For # see URL line after logging into PBXes with browser www6 does not support VPN connections, choose www2 instead
Enable encyrption	optional On Android phones encryption may not work depending on OS version
DNS search domains	leave empty
Username	<account name>-<extension no.> e.g. pamsoft-200
Password	<extension password>

Please note:

• Minutes connected to VPN service will be added to your monthly bandwidth usage. Free Accounts allow to be connected for more than a day. For up to a few days a Premium Account would be OK, but regular usage requires a PRO Account which has no bandwidth limitation.

• VPN connections may be blocked by some network providers. Wireless LANs often do not route the underlying protocol for PPTP.

• Access to PBXes over VPN will only work reliable over TCP protocol. This is the default setting within Sipdroid.

• While connected you can only make and receive calls. To browser or mail, VPN needs to be disconnected.
