To make phone calls over BGAN
To connect a smartphone or IP handset
Your smartphone or IP handset can be set up to make and receive calls over the BGAN network,
using the terminal’s phone number.
To connect your smartphone for making calls
For details on initial setup of your smartphone and the EXPLORER 323, see:
• The documentation for your smartphone
• First time SIP setup on page 40
• To manage VoIP phones or smartphones (Not M2M) on page 66
To use your phone to make calls through the EXPLORER 323 using WLAN, do as follows:
1. Start up the EXPLORER 323 terminal.
2. Connect your smartphone to the wireless access
point of the EXPLORER 323.
See To connect your WLAN-enabled device on
page 19.
3. Start the EXPLORER Connect app and select
Satellite Phone (or start another SIP application).
If it is the first time you use the EXPLORER Connect
app, you must select Register when prompted.
You should now be ready to make and receive calls over BGAN.
When the terminal is registered with the BGAN network and
your phone is configured and connected to the LAN or WLAN
interface, you are ready to make or receive the first call. The
following sections provide a short guide to making calls. For
more detailed information, see To make or receive a phone
call with EXPLORER 323 on page 41.
Note
Make sure your phone has an integrated SIP client. Cobham SATCOM offers the
EXPLORER Connect app with a built-in SIP client that is ready to use with the
EXPLORER 323. You can also find other SIP applications on the Internet.
Note
If you are using the EXPLORER Connect app for the
first time, select
in the bottom right corner and
make sure that Enable Reception of Incoming
Calls is selected in the settings page of the EXPLORER
Connect app. This is to prevent your smartphone from
closing the WLAN connection when not in use. This is
necessary in order to be able to receive calls on your
smartphone.
