Having fun tracing the N95 SIP implementation :-)

    ah.. you're coming right on cue.. :) why is it, that nokias sip implementation isn't 100% compatible to the standard, and therefore does not work (handshaking problem) with most sip providers, at least here in CH? my n95 only works when proxying through a free, less standards compliant PBX service.. (e.g. pbxes.org). the problem seems to be well known, but not solved since years?! really annoying..

    It works very well with Sipgate here in Germany. However, I do have an issue with it with my Wifi setup in France. I took a trace today and will compare it to what it does when I am in France. Let's see.

    the symptom here with our sip providers is that the client does register, does receive calls, but fails to handshake when attempting an outgoing call. see also here for an ack of one of our sip providers..: http://tinyurl.com/342ccu too bad sipgate doesn't do business here.. ;)

    Interesting tip, thanks! Sipgate works in CH, too if you can live with a German phone number ;-)

    Here's how the N95 works in practice: http://mobilesociety.typepad.com/mobile_life/2008/03/tracing-the-n95.html

    interesting to see what you uncover from the setup in france!

    nice blog post :) funny that you mention the voip over cellular thing. just today i tested a sip call over 3G, and although it woks well (except for the huge latency), it indeed seems to drain the battery incredibly fast when sip is in standby mode.

    @afr now you know why :-) The frequent signaling has less of an impact over wifi for the battery.

    yep. see this video for example about why ipv6 is so important to further lower power consumption of "always connected" mobile phones in future (was already posted here in jaiku by constantine some weeks ago..)
