Guide to unlocking your Tesco Siemens DP450 IP Phone and use with VoiceHost.co.uk

Gigaset Communications have created a process that enables Tesco Internet Phone subscribers with Siemens Dual-Phone DP450 to unlock the phone from the Tesco Internet Phone service. This will enable the phone to be used with VoiceHost.
This is an approved method for unlocking the Siemens Dual-Phone DP450 defined and released by Gigaset Communications, the original supplier of the phone to Tesco.

If this procedure is not followed exactly your phone might not work any more. In this case, Gigaset Communications or VoiceHost cannot accept any warranty claims.

NOTE: The Tesco Internet IPA 1000 ATA was an IAX2 device, most VoIP providers are SIP only, including VoiceHost.

Unlock procedure
Your Phone should have the latest released Tesco software version, else this unlock procedure will not work.

Some people experience problems with the firmware upgrade where the process does not complete. If after 30 minutes your handset keeps flashing 'Base 1' you will need to power cycle your phone base by disconnecting the power for 10 minutes and then reconnect it.
Allow the phone to boot, we recommend leaving it a further 30 minutes to boot and upgrade. If your handset is still flashing 'Base 1' after this time, you will need to pair the handset to the base. To do this, follow the procedure below:

On your handset:

On your base:
Hold down the blue button for 30 seconds.
If all goes well, your handset should now be paired and you should be able to make a call.

Once your phone has been unlocked, you will be able to follow our standard set-up guide:

Siemens Gigaset - Wizard

The Siemens Gigaset phone can be configured to use the VoiceHost service in two ways, the first method is by using the built-in configuration wizard on the phone handset. When you connect your phone to your router and power for the first time the wizard will automatically start. To configure the phone, you will need your extension username and password. Please note, these are not the details you have to log in to the website. The required details can be located in the control panel under 'Extension Config'.

Follow the on-screen prompts, select VoiceHost and enter your extension username and password. Once you have finished answering the questions in the wizard you should be able to start making calls with VoiceHost. To test your configuration, try dialling 1234 to listen to the welcome message.

If you require more than one account/extension configured on your phone, or you are having problems accessing voicemail or IVR menus you will need to check your settings by running through the following procedures.

Web-Based Configuration

To access the web-based setup, you will need to determine the IP address of the phone. To do this you will need the handset. On the handset select 'menu > settings > base > network > IP address. The display will show you the current IP address of the phone.

Now you have obtained the IP address you can enter this address in a web browser to access the web configuration page.

Enter the default system pin of '0000' and click ok. Once logged in you will be shown a menu. Select the 'Settings' option and then 'Connections'. Select the first SIP Account 'Edit' button. You will be shown the following screen:

Please enter the following details into the fields provided:

- SIP:
Authentication Name: <extension username> See Control Panel for Details
Authentication Password: <extension password> See Control Panel for Details
Username: <extension username> See Control Panel for Details
Domain: See Control Panel for Details
Display Name: <your name>
Proxy server address: See Control Panel for Details
Proxy server port: See Control Panel for Details
Registrar server: See Control Panel for Details
Registrar server port: See Control Panel for Details

- Network:

System Preparation

Before configuring the SIP trunk it is required to go through the following checklist and make changes where necessary:

• NAT (when used) created to 3CX
  ( https://www.3cx.com/docs/ports/ )
• Firewall Checker passed
  ( https://www.3cx.com/docs/troubleshooting-firewall-checker/ )
• Firewall SIP ALG checked and if present disabled
  ( https://www.3cx.com/docs/manual/firewall-router-configuration/ )

Further setup information can be found in our Academy:  3CX Academy Basic Course

3CX Version

Some providers gained support and compatibility with 3CX on a specific product version. It is advisable to always run the latest version of 3CX to ensure ongoing compatibility.

Minimum 3CX Version: 3CX Phone System 16.0

Provider Capabilities

Below is a short overview of the provider's capabilities and services and whether they’re supported or not:

• CLNS (Clip No Screening): No
• Catch All Routing: Yes
• Fax in T38: Yes
• CLIR (Number Suppression): Yes
• DTMF via RFC 2833: Yes
• Outbound Codec Order: G711A, G711U, G722, GSM, Opus
• NAT Support: Yes

Configuring the Trunk with 3CX

The general instructions outlining how to add a new SIP Trunk to your 3CX installation can be found  here .

Adding the Trunk

Go to  “SIP Trunks”  and select  “Add SIP Trunk”

• Select Country: UK
• Select Provider in your Country: VoiceHost
• Main trunk number: This will have been provided to you by VoiceHost. You must enter the number in the E164 number format (e.g. +44123456789)
• Press OK

Under the  “General”  tab in the  “Authentication”  section, enter your Authentication ID and Password as well as the registrar address (these will be supplied to you by VoiceHost).

Adding Additional DIDs

To associate all other DIDs/Numbers you have in your VoiceHost account with 3CX, go to the Management Console → SIP Trunks, double-click on your VoiceHost Trunk and go to the  “DIDs”  tab

Here you should already see 1 entry; that is the Main Trunk number you have set. Add all other DIDs/Numbers you have to the list in the E164 number format (e.g. +44123456789) and press OK.

Creating Inbound Rules

Now that you have associated all your DIDs/Numbers with your SIP Trunk in 3CX, you can create Inbound Rules to set where calls will be routed when those numbers are called. Instructions on how to create Inbound Rules can be found  here .

Number Format

General

When configuring VoiceHost SIP Trunks in 3CX, all numbers should be entered in the E.164 number format (e.g. +44123456789), otherwise, call routing will fail.

Outbound Caller ID

VoiceHost trunks do not support Clip No Screening which means you can only present numbers that are associated with your account as Outbound Caller ID.

Outbound Rules

When configuring your Outbound Rules, numbers can be dialled in all valid number formats. More information about how to create Outbound Rules and how they work can be found here

Enabling TLS and SRTP

Under the 'General' tab please update the host to the one shown in the VoiceHost portal. This changes for TLS and SRTP so it will only be changed once enabled.
Under Options, please also upload the linked PEM under the option for the trunks 'TLS Root'.
Ensure SRTP is enabled.
Ensure TLS is set and the transport.
Ensure that host port is set to 'Auto-Detect'

Root Certificate: download here (You will need to rename to .pem)
