Good afternoon,
I'm a BT customer and I have a normal phone line. I connect my traditional landline phone directly into the wall.
Is it possible to use my phone number in a SIP client?
I have been in Germany and there you can use your home phone in any 3rd party SIP client, for example I used "microsip". In the attached images you can see the type of settings SIP clients need.
Thanks for any help with this, or even confirmation that this is impossible.
To clarify this is mainly for fun.
Regards,
James.

Welcome to this user forum for BT Retail phone and broadband customers.
You would have to port your phone number to a VOIP provider, there is no method to do that with your existing broadband connection.
BT have their own proprietary VOIP system called BT Digital Voice, which only works with the BT Smart Hub 2.
Many thanks for the reply. Interesting that it isn't built-in. I'll take a look at these other services.
