FWIW, I haven't been able to get Voipbuster to work with an xTen Lite
softphone although others claim to have done so. Nor have I been
successful with Voipcheap, although both Voipstunt and Sipdiscount are
OK. I notice that all four providers require me to allow server mode
in my firewall settings, but only when using their Win XP software.
Perhaps there's a clue there.
