When I dial a number I get a window with 3 fields. Phone number I'm calling. My location which says custom number as the only option and then Custom number where my number is placed. Then I hit the call button and I get a status window with the following... Call status: cannot reach. Caller Status: Generic Error. Callee Status: Generic Error. Nothing happens and the window shifts back to the dial buttons.

Not sure if this is the same with anyone else, but prior to getting the "Callee Status: Generic Error", I got this:

Limit Reached

You have reached the limit of maximum allowed Softphone installations.  As a result, outbound calling is not available.  Enable it by deauthorizing one of your computers:

1. Log into your online account
2. Go to "Settings">>"Phones & Numbers"
3. Click on Phones tab
4. Select "Softphone"
5. Click on "Deauthorize this Computer"

Following those instructions worked for me. 

I hope this helps.

this happens exactly the same for me as well.
no outbound calls from my PC. app says i am connected. I see my other peers online; can chat.

but any outbound call, internal or external won't work.

all call statues stay as 'in progress' for a while, then call status turns to finished, and the app goes back to dial pad.

my phone doesn't even recognize an incoming call.

when I use the mobile app, calls can be made alright. same account.
no issues there, seemingly.


when will this be resolved?!

Can you make external calls by not using RingOut?
