In the config.xml
, make the following changes:
Change all VoiceProfileInstance
elements from:
<Enable>Enabled</Enable>
To:
<Enable>Disabled</Enable>
Disable both voice lines (usually InstanceID 1 and 2)

<ProxyServer>127.0.0.1</ProxyServer>
<RegistrarServer>127.0.0.1</RegistrarServer>
<SIPPort>7777</SIPPort>
Replace VOIP credentials:
<AuthUserName>user@127.0.0.1</AuthUserName>
<AuthPassword>xxxxxx</AuthPassword>
