Hello. I've seen this behavior. What happens is that the Grandstreams forget to continue registering with Asterisk after a while. I bet when you find this happening, that sip show peers doesn't show ext/ext ip address for the one that isn't working. You can work around the problem by explicitly telling Asterisk how to dial the GS by giving it an explicit IP address in its sip.conf extension entry. Alternatively, you can upgrade the Grandstream to a newer load of firmware. I'm running 1.0.4.68 on my HT286, and it seems to behave much better. I got my firmware load from: http://www.voiptalk.org/products/download/ They seem to have 1.0.4.63, and 1.0.5.0, but not 1.0.4.68 anymore.
Hope that helps. -Brian I've searched the lists but I didn't find anything exactly like this. I have two Grandstream BT101 phones connected to an Asterisk. Periodically, for reasons that I can't determine, one or the other (or both) of the BT101s decide(s) to go on permanent busy. Dialing that phone gives: -- Executing Macro("SIP/24567-7856", "dialphone|SIP/27654") in new stack -- Executing Dial("SIP/24567-7856", "SIP/27654|10|tr") in new stack Jun 15 14:23:41 NOTICE[1343506]: app_dial.c:536 dial_exec: Unable to create channel of type 'SIP' == Everyone is busy at this time But dialing in the other direction (from the busy phone out) gives normal (good) results: -- Executing Macro("SIP/27654-6e2b", "dialphone|SIP/24567") in new stack -- Executing Dial("SIP/27654-6e2b", "SIP/24567|10|tr") in new stack -- Called 24567 I have noticed that when the problem is happening I see this: CLI> sip show peers Name/username Host Mask Port Status 24567/24567 192.168.2.253 (D) 255.255.255.255 5060 Unmonitored 27654/27654 (Unspecified) (D) 255.255.255.255 0 Unmonitored Rebooting the offending phone always fixes the problem for a while. After rebooting I see: CLI> sip show peers Name/username Host Mask Port Status 24567/24567 192.168.2.253 (D) 255.255.255.255 5060 Unmonitored 27654/27654 192.168.2.254 (D) 255.255.255.255 5060 Unmonitored The BT101s are running 1.0.4.55. Asterisk is 0.9.0.
