      Yeah me too. I really would like to find one that I can use while at my desk, switch to my tablet while traveling and/or my cell phone and have it work without horrible call quality and dropping calls.

      Something is wrong here. I can't believe that it is the softphone having the issue as we aren't having those issues with anyone else's softphones. Are these devices all on WiFi by any chance? WiFi is hell on SIP traffic. Do the hardphones at your office sound similar? Have you had your softphones configured to g.722?

        Yeah, so that got hijacked. What about softphones again? I've yet to use one I like, but I'm curious to see if I've just missed out on a decent one somewhere.

        I don't "like" any of them, the interfaces are always SO cheesy and poor. But the sound quality and functionality that I get on LinPhone has been top notch.

          @scottalanmiller No, we don't have the same issues with desk phones. It's not a network issue. It's the fact that all the soft phones we have tried are crap. Of course, they've all been free ones...

            It's really safe to assume that the issue is not the phones or else other people would have the issues too since we are all using them. There is something else causing the issue. You are definitely using the phones over a wired connection and definitely have the codec set to g.722 when you are testing?

              There are others having the same issues. Joe and I just talked about this today. I also know Katie has had some trouble. And No I am not trying to use it on Wifi at least not at home.

                Linphone as of late hasn't been letting me transfer. It also lacks letters on the keypad, so if I get to a dial by name directory, I'm dead in the water.

                  You do not know those by heart? I guess maybe too many years of programming alarm systems via the keypad drilled that into my brain as they use the same letter pattern as phones for that.

                    Nope. My first text-capable cell phone had a full keyboard, and any alarm I've programmed has had a PC interface.

                        don't you use windows IP PBX like 3CX

                        No. We can if customers want to work with it. We've have experience with 3CX but it is not cost nor feature equivalent to Elastix, FreePBX, PIAF and others. The use if Windows as a base severely limits it's applicability.
