Troubleshooting Tips

• If the SIP button is white on the dialer pad, you may have input some of your account information incorrectly, or you may be having internet connection problems with your iPhone via WiFi.
• Dialing international on Broadvoice is different than calling from your mobile provider (e.g. AT&T which requires one to dial +[country code]-phone number). Dial 011-country code-phone number.
• Choosing an outbound proxy server should be by “trial and error,” unless you have a pinging utility on your iPhone or a computer on the same WiFi network which you can use to ping the different servers. The server with the shortest and most consistent ping time should be used.
