Gizmo is a softphone PC to PC free VoIP service very similar to Skype, but with the added advantage of being SIP based using open protocols.

Creating A Gizmo Trunk In Asterisk / Trixbox

• Go to the Gizmo project website
• Install their software, sign up for a free account, uninstall their software (if desired).
• Login to the website with your new login details, and find your SIP number ('1747something')
• Click 'Trunks'
• Click 'Add SIP Trunk'
• Outbound caller id - [your '1747xxxxxxxx' number]
• Max Channels - '1'
• In Dial rules, enter:
  • +1866.
  • +1877.

(If you have a positive account balance with gizmo project, then leaving the above dial rules empty will result in a higher quality call to those prefixes, for a minimal charge.)
