Troubleshooting Bria Softphone

The Bria Desktop Softphone is a 3rd party Softphone solution that is compatible with your Unitel services. This is a separate Softphone that can be used by Unitel  customers, on eligible plans.


Troubleshooting FAQs: Getting Setup

If this is the first time using Bria and you are experiencing trouble making and receiving calls, the most common reason is an incorrect setting in the "Voice Configurations" screen of the Bria Teams web interface.

Please confirm you have followed the steps in our guide Install and Configure Bria Teams Guide

If you observe an error 408 or 503 in the Bria Softphone screen, and have confirmed your Voice Provider settings, the issue may be with your local network/firewall settings.
