Hi Simon: Thanks for your reply and the information.All this SIP stuff is new for me. I got an Android tablet and a Chinese knock off of a Smart phone over Christmas. I do not plan to use the cell phone connection with these so I got interested in this SIP stuff. Skype for Android does not have either speech or video at the moment, and I cannot figure out if Google talk is available for Android.
I was finally able to access the smart phone running linphone but using Ekiga on my desktop. The linphone for Windows cannot connect with the Android smart phone, and I spent a long time trying. I just installed a few minutes ago the latest version of linphone on the desktop, but at the moment I cannot do anything because the sip.linphone.org server seems to be down.
When I was connected through Ekiga, though, it was very strange. There was quite a delay from my speaking on the smart phone to the time that I was heard on the desktop and vice versa. The longer I was connected, the greater was the delay. After I was connected for 2 minutes for instance, the delay was almost 30 seconds, clearly unusable. At the outset, the delay was only a few seconds. But the quality of the voice was awful too. Very chopped up. Is this normal? I use ADSL. Can you suggest ways I can get a normal phone like connection for the voice, and I will worry about the video at a later time?

Hi Ted, First did you received the emails with the confirmation links for the two accounts ? On the windows version, password is prompted when needed. If it did not asked for it, it means that it did not succeed to contact the server. Are you sure of the configuration you entered ? Now about the contacts on Android app, we use the Android native addressbook, which indeed does not necessarily make things easy for entering sip uris. My recommendation is to type the sip uris manually and then retrieve them in the History tab (once you made a call to them).

I got the free sip from sip.linphone.org, made 2 accounts (i.e. user names) one for the tablet and one for the base computer, tried to call each other and nothing happens. I notice there is no place on the Windows linphone app to put in my password, while there is on the Android app. Also, on the Android app, I cannot put in any contacts: it says to press menu and then go to accounts, but nothing happens when I press menu. Cannot put any contacts on the Windows version either, but I haven't figured out how to go about doing that yet. Can anyone help?
