I remember when GrandStream phones were the cheapest thing on the market but definitely looked like it. Apparently they’ve gone up market in the past 15-20 years because that WiFi phone looks pretty slick!
Hey @michael_r - Yes I remember too and I did have some but changed to other brands (sadly) but then returned to Grandstream a few years ago and they are great including their (GRP261x models), web interface is excellent, easy to navigate and phone build quality is excellent and that goes as you say for the WP816/WP826 too.
Yes you need to sign up with a 'SIP Trunk' provider. I've done further videos about that since the Unboxing video. Hit subscribe and look for my Grandstream Playlist!
@@MrTimTech2022 Yes I have a SIP Server which I built from C++ Source Code but doesn't seem to have the code that handles the secret I might pull the code down again and have another look at the source code but don't know.
@@DAVIDGREGORYKERR Hey David, thanks for the follow up reply. To be honest C++ is a thing I haven't got in to, so I doubt I can be much help, but with Asterisk based PBX's all you normally! need from your SIP Trunk Provider is the SIP server hostname/IP address, SIP User ID and SIP password, all from your Trunk provider, then this forwards calls from their SIP Trunk in to your PBX which then handles the routing to phones/extionsions/switchboards etc. But I'm sure you know all this if you've been skilled enough to write your own PBX system which seems like you have.

Looking forward to the complete setup of firewall and VOIP phone.
Thanks @glennallen958, more on their way very soon!
To use these units you need to setup a VOIP account so you can get the from_server and Loopback_server as well as a secret.
