This worked for me.

Here you can find Nokia N95 SIP settings for voip setup and SIP client configuration guide with Pennytel service.
STEP 1

Go to Tools / Settings / Connection / SIP settings. Create the following profile

Profile Name: Pennytel

Profile: IETF Default

Access point: (your WLAN AP name)

Public user name: 8881231234@sip.pennytel.com ( Instead of 8881231234 account number example, use the account number assigned to you when signed up for Pennytel service. When recorded your phone will show sip:8881231234@sip.pennytel.com )

Use Compression: No

Registration: "Always on "

Use Security: No

STEP 2

You do not need to enter Proxy Server settings

Proxy Server Address: none

Registrar Server:none

Realm: none

User Name: none

STEP 3

Enter the following for Registrar Server settings

Registrar Server: @sip.pennytel.com (When recorded your phone will show sip:@sip.pennytel.com)

Realm: @sip.pennytel.com

User Name: 8881231234 (Instead of 8881231234 account number example, use the account number assigned to you when signed up for pennytel service. )

Password: Enter the password that you chose when you signed up for the service.

Transport Type: UDP

Port: 5060

STEP 4 (I did not have to do this on my N95 8G)

Go to Tools / Settings / Connection / Internet Tel. Settings

Create a new profile for "pennytel"(888123xxxx), name it "pennytel"

Choose "pennytel" as Preferred profile

STEP 5

Reboot your phone. Once your phone is back on it will automatically register to pennytel.

Once it is registered you can start making calls.

Default call type: To switch between normal GSM calls or VOIP calls, navigate to Tools / Settings / Call / Default call type. Select Cellular to make normal calls to the phone number or Internet to use VoIP to call the number or address

Make Calls!

To dial any phone number that is part of the NANP (North American Numbering Plan), you must dial:

1 + Area Code + Phone number

To dial any phone number that is outside of the NANP (North American Numbering Plan), you must dial:

Country Code + City Code + Phone number

For example if you want to call Brazil (country code 55) phone number in Rio de Janeiro (city code 21) you must dial 5521 and phone number. + sign can also be used and number can be dialed as +5521xxxxxxx

Hey there
I tried entering the @ symbol for the realm/registrar server but the phone wont allow it?
This is on a N95 8gb though

That's what i have (N95 8Gb).

When entering the name push the * key this will bring up the symbols.

The error it comes up with on the registrar server when using the @sip.pennytel.com it claims the server details are invalid...

My Bad.

it should be sip.pennytel.com not @sip.pennytel.com

Sorry.

No dramas :)
will sort out when i get the chance!

Looking at this link, seems like it does not have a SIP Client http://discussions.europe.nokia.com/discussions/board/message?board.id=smartphones&thread.id=139003

Thanks for the all the configuration information. With your help and the info from here http://winkstreaming.com/en/n97_sip/ my N97 can now make calls via Pennytel when a Wireless LAN is available.
