How to set up Groundwire for a Virtual Landline

Our most highly recommended third-party app is Groundwire – a softphone that acts as a perfectly suitable addition to our Yealink phones whilst you’re on the go.

To set Groundwire up, you need either a Virtual Landline or Hosted PBX.

The only difference in setting up the app is how you obtain the login credentials – click here for a Hosted PBX tutorial. To find the credentials, go to your Invoco Portal.

To find the credentials, go to your Invoco Portal.

Click on settings.

You’ll then see this page,

At the top of the page, you’ll see 5 boxes. Clicking on VoIP will reveal your credentials.

You can then see the necessary information – Username, Password, and VoIP Server.

Once you have access to this information, you will then be able to access Groundwire on your iPhone.
