Trying Out UniFi Talk - First Time Setup!

[@simple_networks]

Hey Folks, Sorry about the audio in this video! I am working on getting a better audio situation figured out, but I wanted to get this video out asap!

[@brooks3racing1]

Can a group of phones have multiple numbers / lines assigned? Can a number be shared between two or more groups as a first come first serve basis?

[@resipsaloquitur_esq]

What about Voice Mail?

[@MaCkHector]

Are you able to setup Unifi VOiP Executive phone with Unifi talk?? If so, how do you do it? My Unifi talk doesn't recognize it.

[@mklein345]

Bought a touch. Never could get it to receive calls. Worked with support for two weeks. I was told I needed to get a public Static IP from my provider. Does not make much sense to me. Will be returning phone.

[@bionickoolaid]

I have the opposite issues I can receive calls but not make them

[@mklein345]

@@bionickoolaid Crazy. Called my internet provider and they changed something called a NAT setting. I have really no idea what that is but best I can understand it is some sort of ISP firewall so they can reuse their internal IP address more. I am sure that is not a good explanation but will see if it works. Returned the phone so waiting for another. Sorry that probable doesn't help you much.

[@simple_networks]

I appreciate the conversation being had here, it’s very helpful info! I am curious to know whether you guys are using external SIP providers or a unifi talk subscription.

[@mklein345]

@@simple_networks I am using a Unifi talk subscription. Ordered another phone. If things still don't work I came across this and will give it a try. kzbin.info/www/bejne/onyciaduirSIe9E

@@simple_networks Well, got the new phone, disabled sip/alg and I can now make and receive calls but voice mail does not pickup. It is turned on in the app.

Nice video, I am wondering if unifi talk is compatible to GSM networks

[@Xploit66]

How many phones can share a phone number? I think Verizon digital voice limits it to 5 phones can share 1 number. Also can one phone have multiple phone numbers with one being the main when they call out?

[@ndcollins]

Very cool, can you have an extension forward to an external phone number? Trying to figure out how to handle remote employees with our main office being on UniFi Talk

[@simple_networks]

I have seen a few forum posts that suggest that you can softphones to the unifi talk system with relative ease, with no need for extra numbers or lines. I haven’t seen a way to forward to external numbers thus far but will keep a look out. This might help: www.reddit.com/r/Ubiquiti/comments/p2f4a4/softphone_on_unifi_talk/

[@darylcorbin7330]

Great video…I have been looking at the UniFi Talk products for our new office location and was curious about the inbound/outbound number: can 2 phones dial out at the same time with the single number? Can an inbound call be received with an outbound call in progress?

[@simple_networks]

Yes and yes! Just confirmed on my system.

[@darylcorbin7330]

@@simple_networks nice…thanks for testing it out!

[@jeremymyers5503]

So now that we are a month or so in, how are you liking it. I’m thinking of using this as my home phone since I work from home.

[@simple_networks]

So far I’m liking it, I will be moving our entire office over to it in December so I will have a video about that coming hopefully before the end of the year. I think a work from home application would be great, as long as you can stick within the 3,000 minute/month threshold!

[@richardgracews6]

I'll be doing this in a few weeks great timing thanks!

[@ocdtechtalk]

Thank you for the video on this new system.

[@brucebondi6104]

Does this phone system have a hands free intercom from too-to-room?

[@brucebondi6104]

Sorry Room-to-Room

[@simple_networks]

Not that I know of. You can dial from internal extension to extension. You would have to physically dial it though or save it as a quick dial.

[@mx2ce782]

Outstnding video… helped more than any other

[@simple_networks]

I'm glad to hear that, thanks for the feedback!

[@guitarpro2006]

Any hold music?

[@simple_networks]

Yes, you can upload custom hold music in the settings or use their presets!

@@simple_networks hello Opus No. 1 😂

[@stili774]

Can you user other SIP providers and other phones with talk like yealink so we dont need to replace old one?

[@simple_networks]

Yes, you can add third party SIP providers through an option in the system settings. As for adding third party phones, I have seen write ups on the unifi fourm from people saying they were able to do so, with other commenters confirming they could as well. While I haven’t done it myself, it appears as though it’s possible.

[@stili774]

@@simple_networks thanks

[@only_mango]

can you dial out same time?

[@simple_networks]

Yes!

[@aarona7582]

I'd be interested to see how they can offer this service in Canada

[@simple_networks]

As would I!

[@tshotsattheloft]

Does anyone know if the unifi talk system/phones can be used in remote offices or on the road as the Yealink T27Gs can?

[@kensingh9527]

With a site to site VPN, probably.

[@jasondoane6542]

Ours stops working sporadically. Takes a reboot and firmware upgrade to fix....sometimes.

[@simple_networks]

Does the whole system go down or is just the external line?

[@jasondoane6542]

@@simple_networks Just 1 phone usually. Sometime the whole thing.

[@ocdtechtalk]

Open the box and throw it away. Who cares about the package.
