Yes, the E337 is just a rebadged Yealink USB-P1K. Drivers for Skype and other VoIP clients can be found here:

I use that particular phone on voipcheap without any problems, secret is to uninstall the tesco software after you have used up the credit

I use that phone with Sipgate, it will simply be installed as a USB audio device so you can use it with most Windows software.

I have Tesco phone which works quite well, except when my daughters call me from their Tesco phone, there's an awful metallic noise on the line which blots out conversation. The only advice from Tesco is to uninstall and reinstall it, but as I'm in Hong Kong and they are in UK, that's not terribly helpful. Anyone know why this could be? And if I install Skype, will I have to uninstall Tesco internet phone - or can I use the same handset for both applications?

Afraid I dont use this handset on sipgate, but I do use it on voipcheap. On that the LED does flash. The screen should read from the top L-R

Month. Day. Hr.Min and sec in top RH corner

The year is displayed in the centre bottom row

All the buttons should now be functional

Hope that helps
