Modem to keep phone fonction

Hello,

I plan to deploy Sophos XG. My connection is an internet + phone pack and I’d like to keep the phone function. I have to replace the box as it could not be configured in bridge mode (modem only).

Is there a solution to keep the phone provided with the broadband offer? (some premises use coper and some fibre)

 

Thanks in advence

  • Hi,

    when I migrated to NBN FTTC we were supplied with a new modem to provide a land line type service. I have it setup behind the XG as a SIP phone. Works well. Also I din't need the modem function to connect to the NBN, because the NBN box provides a 1gb/s interface.

  • Thanks Ian,

    Is it proprietary solution?

    I want that ;) or something just like that..

  • Hi Justatech,

    very much a public solution, I am a home user.

    I setup an IP address on the external interface, could be DHCP (static), created a firewall rule

    Source LAN, VoIP (modem), destination WAN, ANY, SIP MASQ, log and away it went.

  • The solution was in front of me.

    I’m an Orange France customer, and in that case the provided box (LiveBox) is the only equipment able to achieve the SIP connection.

    For French customers (any provider), here is a good source of information: https://lafibre.info/

    I will have to put the box on the LAN and configure the XG, depending on the connection type, with an internal DHCP and the right option if it’s a DHCP connection or, for PPPoE connection let a specific VLAN pass the XG.

    I’ll try that and let you know…
