I've always found Ekiga's software to be good, but the ekiga.net service
to be spotty. Somebody recommended iptel.org to me for a SIP account,
and it has been much more reliable that ekiga.net. However, I should
clarify that I haven't used either service much in the past year, so
things could have changed.
