Hi Guys,
I finally found a way to call other vbuzzer users using your ATA and
dial pad of the phone. Well, you can always use Speed Dial option but
that is limited to 8 people. With bellow method, you can call unlimited
numbers of Vbuzzer users.
When you have a phone number from Vbuzzer, no matter what area code you
have, all calls between Vbuzzer users are free. But when you open an
account with Vbuzzer, if that account doesn't have a phone number, you
can't call that user, unless you use speed dial option of your ATA,
which is limited to 8 people.
With the method I just found out, you can call some Vbuzzer users. You
can even choose your own Vbuzzer account phone number and also decide
how many digits you want your numbers to be.
Before it gets too complecated, let me give you one example: First, you
have to decide what letter(s) you want to use. I chose s of Sukru. I
also decided that I want the phone numbers to be only 4 digits. Then
open a brand new Vbuzzer account. Here is the key: When opening, your
Vbuzzer user name should start with the letter you chose (in my
example, it is s). So, for my mom, let's say I want her phone number to
be 1234. It is 4 digits. So, I opened a brand new Vbuzzer account with
the user name of s1234.
Now, add the following into your dial plan:
<:s>xx xx <:@vbuzzer.com:80>
That means, whenever I make 4 digit calls, PAP2 will call
sxxxx@...:80 .
So, to call my mom, all I have to do is pick up the phone and dial her
phone number that I chose; 1234. When I do that, the PAP2 will call
s1234@...:80 which is the sip uri of my mom.
My Vbuzzer user name is sukrubey. Because there isn't any number in my
user name such as s1234, you can't call me; BUT I do have BuzzMe phone
number. Therefore, you can call me.
The above method is useful when you want to call other Vbuzzer users
who don't have BuzzMe numbers.
