Setting up skype?

As far as I know, you may need the service of "Skype for SIP" from Skype company.

AndrewG,
I understand the appeal of trying to connect OBi+Skype. The risk is that even if you get the OBi to register with Skype it may only be able to make outgoing calls. I quoted a post from a Skype employee mentioning this in my previous post. Having said this, no one as far as I know has mentioned having tried a Skype Sip account. If you do decide to set up a Skype sip acct you will be the first to document it in this forum.

QBZappy,
Will this work with my obi110?
It has the possibility of working, however?
I did some research on this topic yesterday. This is the impression I got. The combination of ATA+Skype Sip acct = hit or miss. I saw succesful implentation, outgoing calls only, and others still trying to figure out how to set it up. Best for you to do your own research and decide for yourself. Let us know how it goes. You might want to go on the Skype forum and do some reading there.
I'm surprised no one else with a Skype Sip account has offered their experience.

I setup Skype SIP using Sype connect in the past - not with an Obihai device but with an SIP profile on an Android phone. The call quality was not great. You are required to use Skype Manager and setup a SIP profile. There is a monthly cost for a SIP profile ($7 US) and you are then calls are billed at the rate here - http://download.skype.com/share/business/guides/skype-connect-rates.pdf. I am in Canada and decided to use a Freephoneline account along with my Google Voice account rather than the Skype approach.
