Connect a phonestar (formerly toolani) SIP trunk to Callina.

phonestar is a German SIP provider focused on SMB and freelancer accounts.

Step 1 — Provision the trunk

  1. Sign in to phonestar's customer portal.
  2. Under SIP-Konto, create a new SIP user.
  3. Copy username, password and SIP registrar (e.g. sip.phonestar.de).

Step 2 — Configure Callina

In Callina → Settings → SIP:

  1. Provider: phonestar.
  2. SIP server: from step 1.
  3. Username + password.
  4. Codec: G.711 PCMA preferred. Opus negotiation also works.

Step 3 — Forward your DID

In phonestar, set the DID's Anrufweiterleitung to the new SIP user. Test by dialing the DID.
