Voip Software

Softphones

The aql VoIP service will work with almost any SIP software. Below are links to some of the more popular SIP software suppliers. It's largely a matter of personal preference. Note - if you are behind a router which uses NAT, you must choose software with NAT support such as the x-ten "xlite" software.

Xten
SJ Labs


Getting started

1) download and install your software
2) Sign up with aql and receive your login details
3) enter your login details into the software
4) Dial your friends. If your username is 600006 and your friend is username 600304, simply dial 600304 to connect to them. If you want to receive calls from conventional phones, simply give out your 0870 xxx xxxx number.

Note: To receive calls from SIP users who are using providers other than aql, you would need to give them your SIP address in standard format. Eg for user 600304 your "full" SIP (VoIP) address would be sip:600304@sip.aql.com.
