Fixing VoIP phones on Speedtouch 585
If you’ve tried using VoIP phones (hardware or software phones like X-Lite or Eyebeam) then you’ll know the pain of the phone intermittently not working. It was plagueing us here at work until we finally found the fix.
It turns out that the Speedtouch routers have some settings built in for handling SIP which is great until you try and use another SIP phone on your network. The fix is to disable whatever it is trying to do and it turns out, this is easy!
- Use telnet to connect to your router. If running Vista, you’ll need to install Telnet through Add/Remove Programs otherwise, you can use Putty.
- Type in the following commands
connection unbind application=SIP port=5060
saveall
- Change the configuration on your VoIP PBX so the phone is configured to be behind NAT
The phone should now just start working. This was tested with a Speedtouch 585. Polycom IP501 VoIP phone and the VoIP PBX is Asterisk provided by Voxhub.

i33 – Day 1
So I’m finally here at Multiplay’s i33 event in Newbury, Berkshire. Possibly the last event here! After arriving at 2PM and checking in (although not allowed to go into the building), I set up a pro sleeping space in the red room and finally at 6PM managed to get into the Box o Win. It’s not bad, quite a decent size, good mix of games.
Not much else happening tonight, so off to bed. Quite glad I’m not staffing this event as a number of things have made it trickier for staff. Anyhow, I’m off, but the first lot of photos are up on my gallery now.
