I'm sure you're looking forward to getting started, so I'll get right to the details.
The first thing you should do is download a SIP-enabled softphone (a software phone). You can use your own SIP phone or SIP router if you'd like. The choice is yours. We do, however, recommend Counterpath's free (X-Lite) softphone as it's been used extensively in our testing, and we know it works well.
Clicking on those links will download tested and approved versions of Counterpath's X-Lite Softphone.
After you install the softphone and run it, it will require you to fill in some basic fields in order to get things to work properly.
