Configuring Topex Mobilink IP with 3CX

 

For costumers who use Mobilink IP with a 3CX PBX, please find below the steps for a successful configuration.

This is the Mobilink IP, complete with long cable antenna, so you can place it where is needed.

 

 

Firt step is to insert a simcard in the Mobilink IP. You can open the simtray by pressing the small yellow button with a pen.

 

 

Then connect it to your network, the default IP address is: https://192.168.173.1
Click on administration in the left pane, you'll be prompted to log in.

 

Default username: admin
Default Password: password

 

If you have a pincode on the sim, you need to enter that in the Mobilink IP.
Click MOBILE ( in the left pane ) --> Settings -->Edit --> More
..here you can enter the pin.

 

 

 

 

Change the network settings to fit your needs.

Click Network in the left pane --> IP Settings --> correct them and save.

Now click the "commit" button on the left and let the device reboot.
You can now access the device on the entered IP address.

It's best to see if there's mobile connection now
Mobile --> status

Next you need to configure the incoming calls.
Go to Call controll --> Access IN --> enter your pbx IP here.

 

 

Now for Incoming mobile calls:
Call control --> Incoming Calls --> Edit --> More --> make sure mode is set to "trunk" and you are using "target" mode. Enter the local PBX extension where incoming calls should be connected to in the "target" field.
Leave all the rest default.

 

 

 

Now configure outgoing calls:
Call control --> Outgoing Calls --> Enable (that's all for defaults)

 

 

Next you need to tell the Mobilink where your PBX is:
Call Controll --> Settings --> here you can enter the PBX IP

Now click Commit to save everything and reboot the device.
That's it, the Mobilink is ready for action. Now for the PBX.

First off, we need to configure the Mobilink as PSTN Gateway, so NOT as trunk for outgoing.

In the 3cx management console go to pstn devices --> add gateway --> choose generic --> enter the name for the gateway --> Next

 

 

Enter the IP of the Mobilink and keep the rest as shown in the screen. --> Next

 

 

In the overview choose which inbound extensions will be called when there is an incoming call... but this doens't matter, because the Mobilink invites the target you specify. --> Next

Now you have the outgoing PSTN device ready.

Create an outbound rule stating that phonecalls starting with the celular prefix of your country should be routed to the pstn gateway(mobilink)

Now we need to configure incoming calls from the Mobilink to the pstn.

Open the Voip providers tab in 3CX Managament console --> Add voip provider --> Generic Sip Trunk --> Next

 

 

 

 

Enter the IP of the Mobilink--> Next

In the next screen you'll need to enter the external number (doesn't matter what you enter here) and an auth. ID, doesn't matter either. --> Next

 

 

 

Skip the incoming and outgoing rules and finish the config.

Now open the Voip provider(Mobilink) you just made by double clicking it and go to the "Source ID" tab. --> Check the thick that says "SSource identification by DID"
--> click "Add Mask" --> enter * as mask --> Apply.

 

 

 

You should be ready to make phonecalls in and out using the Mobilink IP with 3cx.
