You can get incoming numbers from voipon.co.uk and a load of other companies in the UK... 0800 is free for them to ring but you have to pay for the call, you can also get regional numbers which are charged as a local call for them - stay away from 070 numbers though. 2008/9/29 Babcock, Michael Alex [EMAIL PROTECTED] hi; i do not know how it works in the uk, but is there an equalivent to our 866-877-888-800 numbers for london for say?

As far as call charges are concerned, there is no such thing as local or long-distance in the UK now, and hadn't been for many years. We now have geographic and non geographic numbers. (Non geographics are sometimes called NGNs) The Geographics start 01 or 02 and are what they imply - mapped to a particular geographic area. (or are supposed to as some are ported into VoIP and moved) These numbers are relatively low cost to call and often can be called for free out of inclusive minutes or other deals with your phone company. NGNs include freephone numbers (aka toll-free in the US) - starting 0800, 0808 or 0500. NGNs can also be revenue generating - they are usually free to assign and maintain, but cost the caller more than calling a Geographic number and the terminating operator generates revenue from the call. These numbers typically start 084 or 087. The 087's generating more revenue than 084, and cost more to the caller. (There are other ranges of premium numbers - 09 and 070, but we'll not go there) So - If you want your friends to call you for free, then why not just allocate then a SIP account on your own system, then get them to run a softphone, or buy a hard-phone and then they can connect up? Failing that, they can get a SIP account with a multitude of UK (and European) based operators and make calls - sometimes for free, sometimes for a small per minute charge. And failing all that - because they don't have/want technology, you can get an account with one of these operators and terminate it in your own SIP/IAX hardware, then they can call you for the price of a standard UK geographic number - which may be free for them, depending on the package they have with their phone company. A final thing to note, there is a new range of non-geographic numbers in the UK which start 03. These cost the same to call as 01 and 02 numbers (or should), so you could allocate one of these and have it terminated on your own SIP/IAX account. People to do it via (other than me - I can't take US currency, but drop an email if interested anyway) in no particular order: www.gradwell.com, www.voiptalk.co.uk, www.voipon.co.uk, www.voip.co.uk, www.aql.co.uk and a few others. Hope this helps!

[asterisk-users] ATA for large networks
Hi, I would like to know if someone can suggest a multi-port ATA worth buying (at least 8 ports). I have around 380 analog phones to convert to SIP extensions. So I need quite a few ATAs but they need to be enterprise-grade, ie. they need to be reliable and stable. I bought and have been using 11 Grandstream GXW4008 (8-port FXS ATA) in a production environment and have been experiencing stability and quality issues which are not acceptable in a large company. I chose Grandstream because: - it was a cheap way to start - I thought their products were stable and reliable because I had already heard their brand name So since my experience with 11 Grandstream GXW4008 has been overall negative (I need to reboot the devices too often!), I'd like to know if someone could help me decide what brand/model to buy. I would also need to find these products in Europe (or at least deliverable there). I've been considering a few products but I don't know if they are reliable: TopGate TG8048 (48 FXS) Soundwin S2400 (24 FXS) In other words, I'd really appreciate feedback from voip administrators (not from resellers) who have had experience testing their devices and are happy with them.

[asterisk-users] identify/find a channel to pick it up
hello, i want to build a pickup extension in a multiuser system, which means there are several different numbers which same extensions and so on. the phonenumbers are identified only with their ID in the database like +123- where after the - is the extension. the normal pickup function works with [EMAIL PROTECTED] but the problem i have is that i dont know the extension. so i could read out every possible extension from the db and build a pickupstring, but i think this would kill the system (if there are more than 200 extension on a number). this is for a global pickup function to pickup the next ringing channel for that number. the other way is that i could find the right channel, so i want to search for every channel which have the state ringing and the extension +123-... or is there something like a wildcard i can use for pickup like +123* sorry for my bad english, i hope its understandable what i mean. best regards steve smith ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Only difference is the Monitor() statement. I'm starting to suspect it's a CODEC issue in Asterisk, though (a) why Asterisk would need to transcode a call between two uLaw endpoints, I don't know... and (b) why is it staying in the Media path at all? I have the SIP peer that the calls come in on as: [sip-proxy] ... type=peer nat=no canreinvite=no reinvite=no Anyone know why the Monitor() would change the duplex(ity) of the audio stream?

Can anyone elaborate a bit PtP or PtmP respective advantages ? With analog phone lines you can have multiple handsets share the same physical line. That is: multiple FXSs and one FXS. Only one talk at a time. PtMP is an attempt to preserve that feature: multiple CPE units can share the same physical connection to a network unit. Only up to two talks at a time. Another nice feature of analog handsets is that they are powered from the FXS. Likewise BRI phones can be powered from the network unit. Those two features are quite nice when your equipment is a simple phone. They are mostly useless for a PBX: your PBX will have an independent power source anyway. And will most likely want to handle all the line by itself. The problem is that those features come with a price tag of complexity. For instance, many providers want to save power and hence drop the (even layer 1) connection to a ptmp bri cpe unit because it is probably an isdn phone that takes some precious power (some 25V, IIRC). As a result, your PBX cannot really tell if the red alert it has is faked or not. -- Tzafrir Cohen icq#16849755 jabber:[EMAIL PROTECTED] +972-50-7952406 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.xorcom.com iax:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/tzafrir ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Each of the phones has a totally different number. PtMP is what home users get unless they request something else. PtP: You connect just one device which is your PBX. You get a block of numbers (xx / xxx / / ...). The nice thing is that you can easily map these external DID numbers to internal extensions, i.e. ..xx - xx More expensive than PtMP. btw: _PRI_ is always PtP.

Can anyone elaborate a bit PtP or PtmP respective advantages ? IMHO: PtMP should only be used if you have Multiple devices connected to your ISDN (Hence the Multiple part in its name) - This setup means that for each outgoing call, the calling device has to negotiate almost from scratch, access to a B-channel, and every inbound call is sent (broadcast) to every connected device to give it the chance to grab it. This is an almost compeletly chaotic and stateless environment (I know, of course there IS state, just a lot less of it). PtP on the other hand is stateful - The one device negotiates a connection when it comes up, and monitors the line constantly, so it knows if (for example) the line goes down. Calls in both directions are sent to the one known endpoint, directly addressed to a B-channel that it already knows should be available. Also, if a call comes in to an unrecognised DDI/address, PtMP can only time-out (no-one grabs the call) where PtP can dynamically know that the call is rejected and handle it properly For 99% of Asterisk installs, where Asterisk is managing/routing all calls on a line, PtP is going to be the right choice.

The problem I am havong is the following: I want to use the *8 from features.conf to pickup any ringing extension from a group, becouse I want to put the users in call queues and I want anybody from the company to be able to pick a ringing channel, even if is in a queue. Whwn using Sip protocol for the users, everithing is going fine, I can pickup any ringing extension from the group using *8. But the problem appears when I am using IAX protocol. When issuing *8 from the IAX phone, asterisk tryes to find the *8 in the dialling rules returning: *CLI -- Registered IAX2 '40' (AUTHENTICATED) at 10.0.0.30:4569 http://10.0.0.30:4569 [Sep 27 12:04:33] NOTICE[19796]: chan_iax2.c:8914 socket_process: Rejected connect attempt from 10.0.0.30 http://10.0.0.30, request '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] does not exist This I think is wrong, is something like asterisk cannot read from features.

Re: [asterisk-users] OT - Avantages of ISDN PtP and PtmP
2008/9/29 Olivier [EMAIL PROTECTED]: From http://public.swbell.net/ISDN/connect.html : If you only intend to connect a single device/application to your ISDN line, then you only need the point-to-point configuration. With the point-to-point configuration you are assigned a single phone number per ISDN line (not one for each B-channel). If you intend to connect multiple devices/applications, then you need the multipoint configuration. With multipoint configuration you are assigned a phone number for each device connected. That is utter rubbish. PtP mode is completely unrelated to how many numbers are allocated on the line. It is possible that 1-to-1 is a common implementation where an ISDN phone is being used, but that does not make it a requirement. A SETUP packet arrives and it contains the caller-ID (usually) and the called number (or a representation of it) - In PtMP, all devices that are interested in handling the called number then fight over who answers the call based in the received information, and in PtP, the one device decides what to do with the call whether it wanted it or not.

In that situation we had ~150 softphones and ~100 IP Phones. Apart from the initial configuration and taking extra care that the machines running the softphones were configured correctly we experienced very few problems. Extra care had to be taken to select good quality headphones and USB headphones did tend to work better than ones connected to sound cards. Problems arose when the users 'tinkered' with their machines (which we eventually locked down pretty hard) or an unrelated application crashing causing the whole machine to slow down to a crawl and affecting voice quality significantly. Otherwise things did work rather smoothly and the extra mobility gains for some of our users (moving around the office with their mobile PCs) made it worthwhile. ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Do you mean the highest between last and previous last times ? For example if two times ago, you entered with 5 v's then entered the last time with 1 v, you will still be at 5 v's. You can change this behavior using: CLIcore set verbose X where X is the new level you want (2, 3 ...) Hope that makes sense. It does but whatever I tried, it defaulted to 5.

Yes it is possible but a little bit more involved. First you setup the device to download the profile from a tftp or http server where you setup the xml file. The file will have all the parameters defined like this: Proxy_1_ ua=na192.168.1.200/Proxy_1_ What that ua=na mean is that the user will have No Access to the parameter. The other 2 options are ro and rw, read-only and read-write respectively.

[asterisk-users] Source of SIP Remote host can't match request NOTIFY
Hi, I've got a lot of Remote host can't match request NOTIFY. I've read http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2008-May/210709.html . Recommendation is enable SIP debug to see what packets are causing this, and if it's voicemail notifications, turn them off in sip.conf How would you proceed to get those debug ? The exact message is : WARNING[2990]: chan_sip.c:12900 handle_response: Remote host can't match request NOTIFY to call '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'. Giving up. As this 192.168.52.31 adresse is my Asterisk server address, I don't have a clue to focus debugging on the device that replies 481 to Asterisk. Unfortunately, I've got several dozens of devices and all with QUALIFY=yes. So in 60 seconds, I get hundred of SIP debug lines. Is there a smart way to handle this ? Something like SIP DEBUG 481 ? Anyway, do you think it could make sense to ask (or develop) a more explicit WARNING message such as Remote host 192.168.52.123 can't match ... ?

I have some friends in london and want them to be able to call me in the states. Please help with where i can get the numbers, what they start with, how much they are, and what not. As far as call charges are concerned, there is no such thing as local or long-distance in the UK now, and hadn't been for many years. We now have geographic and non geographic numbers. (Non geographics are sometimes called NGNs) The Geographics start 01 or 02 and are what they imply - mapped to a particular geographic area. (or are supposed to as some are ported into VoIP and moved) These numbers are relatively low cost to call and often can be called for free out of inclusive minutes or other deals with your phone company. NGNs include freephone numbers (aka toll-free in the US) - starting 0800, 0808 or 0500. NGNs can also be revenue generating - they are usually free to assign and maintain, but cost the caller more than calling a Geographic number and the terminating operator generates revenue from the call. These numbers typically start 084 or 087. The 087's generating more revenue than 084, and cost more to the caller. (There are other ranges of premium numbers - 09 and 070, but we'll not go there) So - If you want your friends to call you for free, then why not just allocate then a SIP account on your own system, then get them to run a softphone, or buy a hard-phone and then they can connect up? Failing that, they can get a SIP account with a multitude of UK (and European) based operators and make calls - sometimes for free, sometimes for a small per minute charge. And failing all that - because they don't have/want technology, you can get an account with one of these operators and terminate it in your own SIP/IAX hardware, then they can call you for the price of a standard UK geographic number - which may be free for them, depending on the package they have with their phone company. A final thing to note, there is a new range of non-geographic numbers in the UK which start 03. These cost the same to call as 01 and 02 numbers (or should), so you could allocate one of these and have it terminated on your own SIP/IAX account. People to do it via (other than me - I can't take US currency, but drop an email if interested anyway) in no particular order: www.gradwell.com, www.voiptalk.co.uk, www.voipon.co.uk, www.voip.co.uk, www.aql.co.uk and a few others.

You did mention that you were using trixbox in your original question, so we referred you to a trixbox mailing list, because rumors have it that trixbox does complicated things in their dialplan to accomplish their goals, and most folks in this mailing list (but not all) don't play much with trixbox. But if you are not using trixbox, then you might look in your extensions.conf to answer these questions. Another resource you have to investigate the dialplan is in the CLI of asterisk; you can say dialplan show, or dialplan show from-max to see if the from-max context has been included. when the pbx_config module (module load pbx_config.so) loads, it will read in /etc/asterisk/extensions.conf; if it is not there, that module will not complete the loading process.

Recommendation is enable SIP debug to see what packets are causing this, and if it's voicemail notifications, turn them off in sip.conf How would you proceed to get those debug ? The exact message is : WARNING[2990]: chan_sip.c:12900 handle_response: Remote host can't match request NOTIFY to call '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'. Giving up. As this 192.168.52.31 adresse is my Asterisk server address, I don't have a clue to focus debugging on the device that replies 481 to Asterisk. Unfortunately, I've got several dozens of devices and all with QUALIFY=yes. So in 60 seconds, I get hundred of SIP debug lines. Is there a smart way to handle this ? Something like SIP DEBUG 481 ? Anyway, do you think it could make sense to ask (or develop) a more explicit WARNING message such as Remote host 192.168.52.123 can't match ... ?

Re: [asterisk-users] credit card processing
On Sat, Sep 27, 2008 at 6:52 PM, Ruddy Gbaguidi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Guys On the website, we already accept credit card by sending users to paypal website where we have an account. PayPal does have a service that is more like a traditional merchant service. I don't know if they have a real API that you can integrate into your system, however. Now, we want to do the same with an IVR where people can call a number, enter their credit card number and expiration date. This should be rather easy. Any traditional online merchant account. When you obtain a merchant account there are (simplified version follows) two parties involved, the bank that process the transactions and the gateway that accepts the transactions from the merchant (you) and sends them to the bank to be processed, in real time. Authorize.net is a very popular gateway supported by most e-commerce software. The point is that the Authorize.net API is a very popular system -- just about any pre-built e-commerce software supports it. It should be rather simple to create an AGI script which takes the credit card information and interfaces with the Authorize.net. They publish many examples and detailed API documentation so this should be a breeze for any skilled programmer. I strongly recommend that you use the CVV2 and AVS as a minimal means to reduce fraud. But I don't see any service or credit card procession company that offers this. What I want basicly is a service where I can send the credit card number I collected and expiration that and their charge the number and give me a status back. Do you know any company that do this ?? That's exactly the purpose of the Authnet API! Further information can be found here: http://developer.authorize.net/ Authorize.net also sells their gateway service under another name (I cant recall it right now), but everything else is the same. Also, some other gateways support Authorize.net emulation. Chris Bagnall wrote: Most credit card processing gateways require you to have the user's name and address for AVS verification when you perform customer not present transactions. Easy enough to do over a website, but a bit more tricky on the phone. AVS simply verifies the street number and zip code, nothing else. If I live at 123 Maple Street in zip code 77099 and I steal the credit card from someone at 123 Test Ct. in the same zip code I can have things mailed to me and it will pass AVS. Either way, when you are not shipping a physical product the rate of fraud rises dramatically -- you should carefully investigate fraud prevention for your system. Authorize.net provide a service which claims to flag/reduce fraudulent transactions. One of the merchant services I deal with, CDG Commerce (I highly recommend them, their customer service is top notch, but I dont think they will process for a VoIP/calling card service), has another similar system for no cost. ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
Re: [asterisk-users] ATA for large networks
Thanks for the feedback. I'm particularly curious to know if anyone has tried a TDMoE channel bank. Spidermux seems to be one of the few vendors available. It's the closest I can get to an ATA-like device (ie. no special hardware, just ethernet) and it also offers an easy failover mechanism to another Asterisk server on the LAN. So I'm wondering why TDMoE channel banks aren't that popular (am I wrong?)? Is Asterisk's native TDMoE implemntation unreliable? Has anyone tested Spidermux or other TDMoE channel bank manufacturer? Standard channel banks become expensive when one has to buy the T1/E1 PCI cards on the Asterisk server. Since most channel banks interface with T1 (24 channels) and if I have about 350 analog phones to connect then I'd need around 15 T1s (that's about 4 quad-pri T1 cards which of course require 4 PCI slots and a fair amount of cash). Xorcom's Astribank is something in-between. It doesn't require PCI slots or T1 cards but connects via USB. Just like T1 channel banks, Astribanks don't seem to offer an easy failover mechanism like in the TDMoE solution (correct me if I'm wrong). However, a potentially higher number of astribanks can be cheaply connected to a single Asterisk server via several USB ports. I'm wondering how many 24-FXS astribanks can be connected via USB 2.0 to a single 4-USB-port server. Of the three solutions I'd try the TDMoE device but I'm wondering why noone in this thread even mentioned the protocol. ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
Re: [asterisk-users] ATA for large networks
I installed a few Spidermux units on some clients. It works fine, but I had some trouble with cordless analog phones connected to it. The ring voltage is pretty low and that caused some phones to not ring at all. And the ring voltage isn't configurable. Aside from that, it is a good product. Too bad it's the only TDMoE channel bank (that I know of, at least).

[asterisk-users] Maybe OT - routing calls in PSTN
I have a Vitelity DID which generally works, but calls from a particular caller do not reach it. Vitelity has thus far disavowed any responsibility for working through this problem. I recognize that some action might be required by another provider which is outside Vitelity's control, but it seems that they should at least be trying to help resolve the problem by helping me determine the responsible party and facilitating contact - because it is their DID/service that cannot be reached. In the past when I had a similar problem with a Junction DID, the folks at Junction resolved it with no hassles and zero intervention on my part. But Vitelity just keeps closing out my trouble tickets while responding in a way that indicates that they are not reading my reports carefully. How does this compare to others' experiences with Vitelity and other providers? Is there a way that I can determine whom to contact given only an originating number? Any words of wisdom? Documents I can read for educating myself? smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
Re: [asterisk-users] Maybe OT - routing calls in PSTN
If Vitelity is an ITSP, the problem is with the underlying carrier that provides the actual interconnection and switching facilities. It is their responsibility to contact the underlying origination carrier to resolve the issue.

Re: [asterisk-users] Maybe OT - routing calls in PSTN
BTW, if you provide the originating number, the underlying carrier can be determined, either by the pooling or NANPA block it is assigned to, or its LRN if ported. If you want, you can privately e-mail me the number and I'll tell you who the carrier is.

[asterisk-users] OT: real 2 line phone vs. 1 line and call waiting
I'm looking into getting a new phone and wondering what the difference in functionality is between a single line phone with call waiting and a real 2 line phone (either a real SIP phone or an analog 2 line phone and a 2 port ATA) is. Why would I want the real 2 lines vs. just being able to take an incoming call via call-waiting?
