#457 Registering on fritz!box sip-server yields "bad request" - but only for the first try after some period of time

[Anonymous]

Originally created by: markus.d... (code.google.com)@gmail.com

Registering at a fritz!box sip-account yields the following result:

- first try to register: "bad request"
- second try immediately after first one: everything works well, incoming and outgoing calls work
- after some time (some minutes) the account changes back to "bad request" and stays like this

When manually deactivating the account in this case and reactivating, it sometimes works and turns green on the first reconnect, but sometimes it needs two reconnects (at most).

so this looks like the first connect is going wrong, "bad request", but reconnecting immediately after this works. until maybe some kind of "re-registering"(?) is happening, and the first try fails (like it looks it always does for my fritz!box) and csipsimple does not try immediately again, but waits for some (for the fritzb!box too long) time to reconnect --> again "bad request".

maybe this is some kind of oddity with fritz!box voip (or it uses some extension csipsimple cannot deal with?), but it would be nice to have my android-phone register as a sip-client at my fritz!box. a dirty workaround would be to try to register the account twice in a short time span, but a better solution would be to get the cause of the first "bad request" and trace this.

other non-android voip-clients work.

using csipsimple-dev 15-18, fritz!box 7270v1 with firmware .86, samsung galaxy s on froyo 2.2

markus

drop the thing with the "bad request" after it successfully connected for some minutes: it was due to a sloppy wlan here (so wlan changed and csipsimple obviously re-registered all accounts, and the fritz!box-one failed).

so the symptoms are the same for registering but when the connection is successful after the second try, it stays connected.

Registering to a Fritz!box account works without problems (tested with a 7270 model).

If you change the setting 'reg_from_outside' in the file 'voip.cfg' to 'yes', you can even register from the internet!

For details (in German): http://www.ip-phone-forum.de/showthread.php?t=202102

Maybe this issue should be closed.

is it a 7270v1 like mine? what firmware do you use? i've enabled the "reg_from_outside", too, so this cannot be the problem.

i still have the problem on first registering, though. any way to debug the "bad request"?

@markus, maybe you could try to activate STUN.
On ekiga it's required else your IP on the first register is a private IP and some server doesn't allow that. So worth to try.

If it doesn't work, maybe sending me logs (see HowToCollectLogs) may help me to have more infos about the "bad request"

looks like i got it fixed: i have to enter my external dns hostname (pointing to my public ip) as "proxy ip". before i had the internal ip of my router in there. didn't think of that being the solution. (btw: stun did not make a change)

so this can be closed!

Ok thanks for keeping me in touch :)

Ok it make sense.
Most of the time it's the same than registrar or just blank if you want to send your SIP requests directly. (By default in basic wizard proxy is set with the same value than registrar).

Status: Fixed

Unfortunately I have seen this issue too now. I have sent a log file with first registration failing and second succeeding.

@markus: international 7270v2 with German 54.04.88, including Freetz.

@bokhorstm

i've got a 7270v1 with .86 firmware, no problems yet. (btw: i had problems with calls, too, but this was due to having ICE enabled).

So here's my account-config, maybe it helps you:

_ID: <sip:620@fritz.box>_
_Registrar: sip:fritz.box_

Realm: *
Username: 620

Data: PASSWORD
Data Type and Scheme the first ones (german translation totally borked, i'll open a new ticket)
Protokoll: Auto
Publish enabled: yes
The rest default values
Allow contact rewrite: yes
Contact rewrite method: normal

_Proxy URL: my dyndns hostname_
srtp-modus: none/deactivated

And at network-options i have to DISABLE ICS (or else outgoing calls might not work) and ENABLE STUN (server: stun.ekiga.net).

Yet no error.

Hope that helps.

I'm trying to connect to a fritzbox 7270v2 too...
With the same settings as in #8, it just doesn't work (timeout or nothing...); I tried with/without stun.
The account is open for extern, and is working just fine with other software (I use phonerlite).
Galaxy S / 2.2.1

Something else: I wanted to try the latest build ([r436]); it enters into an endless loop "download" -> "next" -> download... It works now with 433, but no connection improvement.
Otherwise it's the best client I found.

Regards,
Gabriel

With the settings of #8 it is works fine for me (both LAN and WAN), although I didn't check 'Publish enabled' (what's that for anyway?).

@Gabriel: what version firmware do you use? Older firmware versions don't support WAN connections, even not with 'reg_from_outside' set to 'yes'. See also comment #2.

I'm using 54.04.88freetz-devel-6278, quite up to date...
As I wrote, it works with other clients...
I tried both mobile data (it works for other providers like betamax) and wlan (from work, not at home).
I don't know what can be wrong, it should be quite simple: just changed the proxy to my dyn dns addr...

Opps! It worked.
I just removed "*" from the account ID; by default it was "*<sip:620@fritz.box>" and I didn't see it...
Thanks,
Gabriel

I had also a problem with logging to Fritz 7270 with a SIP client. I don't use internal DSL modem - router is connected to an existing network. The problem was solved when I changed DNS information in Fritz. I set ones from the Internet Provider instead of a network gateway. I also used a STUN server. Of course SIP server must be an IP address of Fritz not "fritz.box".

I also have this "Bad Request" problem:

Sometimes I get registered and everyting seems to work great, but I loose registration after some time with "Bad Request" error. Sometimes I get the "Bad Request" immediately when trying to register.

The problem is the same if I connect via local WLAN or from outside via 3G.

My phone is a Huawei Ideos with Froyo.

This are my settings:

Kontoname    Fritz
Konto ID    <sip:621@fritz.box>
Registrar URL    sip:myaccount.dyndns-ip.com
Realm        *
Username    621
Data (password)    mypassword
Protokoll    UDP
Publish enabled    ja
Proxy URL    sip:myaccount.dyndns-ip.com

Netzwerkeinstellungen:
Aktiviert STUN    ja
STUN Server    stun.1und1.de

reg_from_outside is set to yes in the FritzBox ofcourse.

@john : could you try this instructions :
https://code.google.com/p/csipsimple/wiki/FAQ#I_receive_calls_twice_/_Registration_is_done_on_the_sip_server_t

Section : "I receive calls twice / Registration is done on the sip server twice"

And let me know how it goes. It should help.

Thanks for your help. I never had a "Bad Request" with the legacy setting again.

I do have the same problem, however, according to the logs I get a 401 AUTHENTICATION FAILED. The wizard entry for Fritzbox does not work (did not check log on this) as well as one setup with expert settings manually. I do not try to connect from outside, all I want is the Fritz to have both my public service number and VoIP number to ring on my DECT and Android devices ring on incoming calls.

I have used the fritz.box and 192.168.178.1 IP, both without success.

P.S. the issue attachment storage quota for this issue exceeded

old thread but still existing problem
but to tell the truth its not csipsimple, with any devices if you register, deregister and register again in a short time the fritzbox answers with that error, only a reboot of the fritzbox help's
tested on 7170 7270 7390 .. all the same behaviour
Execept with there anyoning fritz android client it doesnt happen.
