Set up Placetel in Reachable
WorksPlacetel is a cloud phone system in Germany. This is how you add your Placetel account to Reachable, so your phone rings, even with the app closed.
- You enter: SIP user name and SIP password.
- The password: the VoIP target's SIP password, not your web login or e-mail address.
What to enter
From version 1.1 Placetel is in the app's list. Pick Placetel and fill this in; the app fills in the other settings itself.
SIP user name7771234567Starts with 777. Shown with your VoIP target (VoIP-Ziel) in Placetel.
SIP password••••••••The SIP password of the VoIP target, not your website password.
Where to find your details
- Log in to Placetel.
- Go to Administration > VoIP-Ziele and open your VoIP target.
- Under VoIP-Zugangsdaten you find the SIP user name, SIP password and server.
Right now: with Other SIP provider
In version 1.0 Placetel is not in the list yet. Choose Other SIP provider and fill this in. The fields marked (optional) are under Advanced.
| Field in the app | What to enter |
|---|---|
| Username | exactly as in your portal, for example 7771234567 |
| Password | your SIP password (see above) |
| Server or domain | fpbx.de |
| Transport | UDP |
| Port (optional) | leave empty |
| Outbound proxy (optional) | leave empty |
| Separate login name (optional) | leave empty |
| Voicemail number (optional) | leave empty |
Good to know
- More devices. Placetel names no maximum number of devices per account. If things go wrong while you also use the account elsewhere, give Reachable an account of its own. Reachable on two phones counts as one device: only our server signs in at Placetel.
- Your SIP user name starts with 777. It is not your email address and not your website login.
- If your VoIP target is of the BLF type, the server is blf.finotel.com instead of fpbx.de. The right server is shown under VoIP-Zugangsdaten.
- If the connection does not come through well, try port 8933. Placetel offers it as an alternative to 5060.
