SIP scanner solution with VOIP.MS
redtoy:
So, finally seemed to find an easy fix for this! Every minute or so, night and day I was getting these ghost calls from a toll free number. When I picked up there was no one there. Found out it was a sip scanner. These calls don't show up in my call records in my voip.ms portal.
Found lots of solutions here, but the ones I tried so far didn't work. Then I went into my voip.ms account and went to "Account Settings" - "Account Restrictions" then down the page to "Allow Calls to Countries" and "click to manage list of allowed countries ". Under North America click the + button and choose United States, Toll free and Canada (my choices).
It's been about 2 hrs and no more sip scanner calls, YAY!!!!!!!!!! ;D Hope this works for you VOIP.MS people and others.

Did the Obi log the calls? (If so, would be in Status/Call History.)
I'm wondering if there are any clues as to whether they were coming in via SIP URI or to your IP address directly.
Thanks.

No, don't see any logs. (unless there's a separate setting for logging calls that I haven't enabled)

I do have my Obi 202 in the DMZ of my router. Thinking to take it out of the DMZ and see if inbound/outbound is affected. Either way, would be curious as to what the IP address is of the scanner!

I don't think it can be disabled, it's on by default and logs the most recent 400 calls.
Did you fire up the local User Interface with a browser at its IP address, log in with admin/admin, and click on Status, Call History?
