What about make it work without a graphic card too?
If the MB has the graphic on board, usually has just 2 or 3 PCI slots which
is not
acceptable for an * box.
They are many new mainboards which does support only AGP 4x and 8x.
Why to pay for a graphic card from the new generation if you don't need
it...

Not really. The manual contains the teachings necessary to learn for

nothing more than reminding you there are fish in the stream, and a rod

with german ISDN providers the forwarded part of the connection is

The only difference ist "used lines".

Or you buy a decent A brand pizzabox, which has everything on-board. We
use IBM xSeries, which has everything you want built-in and comes with
management hardware so I can take over the console remotely with a
telnet session (including the whole boot sequence, power on/off,
etcetera).

Personally, I like to have a graphics card in my headless servers,
sometimes the easiest way to work with a box is to plug in a console and
monitor. In the datacenter, the xSeries 1U boxes are all looped together
with special cables and share a single KVM port (really nice); at home,
my headless servers are all connected to a cheapo Belkin KVM switch,
works great and saves a lot of hassle with disconnected keyboards,
serial console fiddling, etcetera.

[Asterisk-Users] nat router + sip phone adaptor (+adsl modem)

2003-12-19 Thread Dawid Mielnik

Hi all,

I was wondering whether any of you have experience/info on Cable and/or ADSL
modems that would come together with a SIP phone adaptor. What I am
interested in is something that would plug directly into you ISP's cable (be
it ethernet or adsl/phoneline), would combine a modem/router/nat such that
on the other you could simply plug in your RJ-45 cable for your PC and a
RJ-11 cable for the telephone. Something that would combine the
functionality of a (adsl modem+) router and a SIP telephone adaptor in one
box.

I would appreciate any info that you might have on this.

regards,

Dave

This is not exactly what you are asking for, but its getting close:
http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=VOIP+Phones
Look at the "Clipcomm" devices (Korea). I'd be interested in any reports 
& experiences.

Next to that the newer Grandstream firmware now supports PPPoE (but now 
routing or port forwarding). Not sure what the CISCO devices offer in 
this respect. I wouldn't want to have ADSL modem & router coupled in one 
device, that'll make your router useless if you move to cable modem etc. 
So better not integrate too many task into one piece of hardware.

Cheers, Philipp

Re: [Asterisk-Users] G729 question

2003-12-19 Thread Clif Jones
My understanding is that if the codec type matches on each leg of the 
call then
Asterisk is using "pass through".  The PBX simply has to relay the RTP 
packets
unchanged from one device to another.  If you are going from a phone using
codec tupe A to codec type B, Asterisk must perform a conversion which 
requires
support for both codecs.

Hi Clif,

My experience with G.729 and asterisk is not good.

My first registration was good, it worked. Then I bought more license and
tried to upgrade it, it blew everything off. Still waiting Digium support to
give me a helping hand.
If you use pass-through feature then I guess you are fine. I have SIP users
going to h.323 g/w and I need g.729. So now I have it in pass-through mode,
I think that requires less CPU overhead and I do not have to mess with
licenses.

I am thinking about using the G729 codecs on my endpoint devices and
purchasing some G729 licenses for Asterisk but I have several questions:
1. Which G729 codec is sold by Digium for Asterisk, G729, G729A, B...I?
2. If I have G729A on one end and G729B on the other, are they compatible?
I have looked all over the place for question 2, but without buying the
ITU docs
I cannot seem to find this answer.  I know that G729A is low complexity
which
seems to be what Cisco 7960's use but I have some others that support G729B
which has comfort noise and reduced transmission during silence.  If
anyone knows
how the different G729 codecs interoperate I would be eager to know.
Thanks.

The only thing that I can think of that might come close is a Cisco 2600
series. They are modular routers with two or three expansion ports. You can
for sure get an Ethernet connection as one of the modules, but I'm not sure
about ADSL or Cable. They have ports for VOIP, but I'm not familiar with
them:

(Scroll about half way down the page, you'll see several sections of VOIP
stuff.)

The only thing that springs to mind is that you create an incoming

Dunno if it will work or not, but that's the only thing that springs to

[Asterisk-Users] Huge traffic with iaxtel.com (without making calls)!!!

2003-12-19 Thread Dan
Hi all,

My * box is registered with IAXTEL too.
The problem is that iaxtel.com [69.73.19.178] makes me a lot of traffic
(both inbound and outbound) on my external IP address (* is behind a NAT
router and only UDP port 4569 is open to the server).
More, all by "browsing and download" traffice is made through a local proxy
Checkig the logs of my Internet connection, they are around 120MB/day both
inbound and outbound traffic, even at some strange local hours, when nobody
use the phone.
I have discovered that because of the very low performance of my connection
in the last period.
I have checked the Asterisk calls log too and they are no calls at that
hours.

Because my cable connection is limited to 1GB of traffic per month (max
between in and out) I am forced to stop the DIAX "CallMe" feature till this
issue will be solved.

If someone can explain this, please send me a direct mail.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Best regards,
Dan

What's the 78632? Is that something you have to dial, like country/area code

Hi Daniel,

Make sure your card is not fighting over shared IRQs with one or more
other cards. Move it around in available PCI slots to see if you can get
the card its own IRQ. Turn off hardware you do not use (Parallel port,
usb, serial ports, on board sound, midi/game controllers) to free up
IRQs. The get yourself a plain vanilla 2.4.20 kernel from a kernel.org
mirror.

Here are the kernel build settings for ISDN:

<< ISDN subsystem >>
ISDN supportM
Support synchronous PPP Y
Use VJ-compression with synchronous PPP Y
Support generic MP (RFC 1717)   Y
Support BSD compression Y
Support audio via ISDN  Y
Support AT-Fax Class 1 and 2 commands   Y

<< Active ISDN cards >>
CAPI2.0 support M
Verbose reason code reporting (kernelsize +=7k) Y
CAPI2.0 Middleware support (EXPERIMENTAL)   Y
CAPI2.0 /dev/capi support   M
CAPI2.0 filesystem support  Y
Eicon DIVA active card support  M
DIVA Server BRI/PCI support Y
DIVA i4l supportM
DIVA Capi2.0 interface support  M
Diva User-IDI interface support M
DIVA Maint driver support   M

(all other options were "N")

Build the kernel, install, then load the following modules:
/sbin/modprobe -v kernelcapi
/sbin/modprobe -v capi
/sbin/modprobe -v capifs
/sbin/modprobe -v divadidd
/sbin/modprobe -v divas
/sbin/modprobe -v divacapi
/sbin/modprobe -v diva_idi

Check the output in /var/log/messages to see if everything loaded ok.

I have Basic Rate EuroISDN and load the firmware on the card with the
following command (get the firmware from ftp.isdn4linux.org iirc)
/usr/sbin/divactrl load -c 1 -f ETSI -vd6

Check the output in /var/log/messages to see if this went ok.

You can monitor the activity on the D channel with the following command
(get divactrl from mmm.metlware.de, needs diva_idi module loaded!)
divactrl dchannel -c 1 -xlog -dmonitor

Armin Schindler (author of the patches) told me that kernel 2.6 has
native capi support for the Eicon cards. Very nice. When zaptel and *
build on 2.6 I am definitely going to try this.

Good luck,
Patrick

Hi all,

I was wondering whether any of you have experience/info on Cable and/or
ADSL modems that would come together with a SIP phone adaptor. What I am
interested in is something that would plug directly into you ISP's cable
(be it ethernet or adsl/phoneline), would combine a modem/router/nat
such that on the other you could simply plug in your RJ-45 cable for
your PC and a RJ-11 cable for the telephone. Something that would
combine the functionality of a (adsl modem+) router and a SIP telephone
adaptor in one box.

I would appreciate any info that you might have on this.

regards,

Dave

Yes, this still results in a crash on the box with the tor2.

Is there any 'controlled' way to bring down a dynamic span?

2. The D-channel of the PRI is shown down by asterisk whenever i try to make a call. the outpur follows:

[Asterisk-Users] Re: Land line vs. VoIP provider.

2003-12-19 Thread Stephen R. Besch
Robert Mann wrote:

Residential Long Distance.
 
One of my biggest pushes towards a VoIP provider was cheap long 
distance.  Now in the U.S. at least with SBC they now have a plan for 
Unlimited Long Distance.  The price is 30.00 a month if you do not have 
a couple of required features on the line already like Caller ID and a 
feature like 3 Way or Call Waiting etc. in which case that lowers the 
price to 20.00 a month.  Then to top that off I have two lines in my 
house and by allowing them to consolidate my phone lines in to one bill 
they were able to offer me the Unlimited Long Distance on both lines for 
a single 20.00 a month charge.  Now this is in the U.S. and with SBC 
that I know of but other companies will follow shortly if they have not 
already.  So my question now becomes is there any reason to use a VoIP 
provider for outgoing calls other then cheap long distance?  The other 
thing I was liking with some of the VoIP providers was the ability to 
have a incoming line from any major area so even if I live in CA I could 
have a NY number which is cool if you have people that call you from 
there or want some sort of phone spoofing (Not me of course :) ).
 
Other then these reasons can anyone see why you would want to use a VoIP 
provider?  I may have just saved my self some time and money choosing to 
use SBC now for my long distance at this one low rate.
1) International calls are still a lot cheaper.

2) Price Competition. The threat of VoIp is a major factor in inducing 
land carriers to keep costs reasonable.

3) Not really a good reason, but I would still cite quality. My 
experience with some of the cut-rate land carriers is that the quality 
ranges from acceptable to terrible, depending upon where the call 
originates.  While the same is true of some VoIP carriers, the continued 
migration to VoIP should drive improvements, and, it is really much 
easier to try a number of VoIP carriers to find the one with the best 
quality.

4) At least for the present, it is possible AND trivial to use multiple 
VoIP carriers to provide failover, at little or no additional cost. This 
is not, as far as I know, possible with land carriers, at least not for 
little or no cost.

5) A single VoIP connection supports multiple simultaneous outgoing 
calls from any number of sites for no extra charges. No land line 
company can even come close to this for the price.

6) When, and if, the quality/reliability improves sufficiently, a DID 
line in the area code of your choice, which provides 6 simultaneous call 
presentations for $7.99/month, will beat any land line hands down.

Summary: if you're the only caller, calling only to the US, then you 
might be crazy to not use a land line, especially given the deals 
currently available and the  911 issue (but see 
http://www.vonage.com/features_911.php). Even then, if you already have 
broadband in house (or at home), VoIP amy be an attractive alternative, 
if only for the control it gives you over your phone service.

Not all VoIP providers will have Vonage's 911 issues.  It's perfectly
possible for a VoIP provider to provide outbound caller information to
the PSAPs if they spend the time and money to do so.

I have a 7960 running behind a firewall running NAT. From a telnet session
to the 7960, I can't ping anything outside the subnet the 7960 is on, that
is anything on the WAN side of the router. Other devices on the subnet get
out to the WAN just fine.  

Has anyone else had this problem or know how to fix it?

I'm not seeing this file.  It makes /tmp/goforward.hyp with the folowing:

What I'm not sure about is why you are checking the value before running sphinx.  This 
would be getting a previous value correct?  Also, I'm not sure how sphinx is getting 
the file /tmp/mensaje.wav.  This is the big thing that I'm missing.

The script runs for me, festival says the text (when I had it uncommented), gave a 
beep, recorded the file, then quit.  There was the .wav file and goforward.hyp in /tmp.

Once I understand how sphinx gets the output, I think I will have it figured out if 
you could help me with that.  I don't understand how sphinx knows the output file 
(from the .wav) to decode it.

I appreciate your input and help very much.  This is exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks,

Kevin

What about having your VoIP gateway system placing a 911 call to the 911
answering center in the appropriate region and when the 911 operator
answers, have a message say "This is a 911 call from 123 Main Street,
Nowhere Nebraska" then connect the caller to the 911 operator.  Legal? 
Maybe.  Dunno.  Just a random thought that I came up with on the way to
the aforementioned middle of nowhere, Nebraska.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Sphinx

2003-12-19 Thread Mauricio Nuñez
Hi,

If you put BASE=turtle, then the script search for 
/var/lib/asterisk/model/lm/turtle/turtle.ctl, and the content of this file is 
a list of files to process, without the extension, because this is provided 
via the parameter -adcext of sphinx2-continuous.

the turtle dir is the demo provided for sphinx, and my script is practically a 
copy paste, modifyied to explore distincts ${BASE} dir.

Inside ${BASE}, i had a control file ${BASE}.ctl, with the line:

/var/lib/asterisk/sounds/mensaje

hardcoded.

yo get goforward.hyp because turtle.cl constain goforward.16k as input file.

To work with asterisk, i put the -sample option at 8000 , because that is the 
wav sampling. The turtle example work at 16000, and that's explain because 
you get a strange result.

I'm executing wrongly the command ? I' will check that. I'm trying to get 
asterisk work with sphinx from yesterday :-), but almost is working (slow, 
but working)

Hi!

gotoif usually takes a priority as label, not an extension! See below.
Never tried if you can also use the notation "context,extension,priority"
instead of just "priority", but it might work. Just try it.

it further.  It outputs  A now which should be good.

The next big problem I see is that every time you run the script, it uses the same 
file.  This will need to be modified to be a unique filename for each 
caller/iteration.  You are doing very well for your second day with Sphinx.  A lot 
better than me.  Hopefully between the two of us, we can get that problem fixed.  It's 
a step in the right direction.

Jerey,
ISP's integrating Asterisk could utilize their existing radius 
billing packages to easily bill customers for their usage. I, personally, 
would love this feature, and Radius is widely deployed and stable.

[Asterisk-Users] 911 settings.

2003-12-19 Thread Ariel Batista
I would like to know if anyone has come up with a script for 911 dialing
rules that put correct information on our locations.  We have our office
in 3 different building one being our production & shipping dock.  It is
almost 2 blocks away.  We are connected with Ethernet Wireless between
the buildings and have Sip phones setup in the other 2 locations. All
the phones are working just fine.  But when they call 911 they get our
main address and not the other address's.  So we need to be able to give
the correct address to the 911 call!  This is just for our locations and
not for reselling our Asterisk server!

I wrote a small application that measures traffic totals for Websites, 
Switch ports virtually anything else that can be accessed via SNMP. That 
application then takes the totals and sends them as a Radius Accounting 
packets to our Radius Servers, which store the data in a SQL backend. Our 
billing system (Platypus) can then generate bills for customers based on 
usage.. in this case Gigabytes of Data transferred. For our dial-up 
customers is based on a certain block of hours with minutes charged at a 
specific rate over the limit. It is a system that makes it trivial to 
assign a value to some data point and create an itemized invoice for it.

I am in the process of deploying an Asterisk server to provide voice 
services to about 20 phones. It would be nice to be able to use our 
existing billing system to simply charge people for the minutes they have 
used and/or use the block pricing models that we already have in place 
(I.E. First 1000 minutes free, .03 each additional) without having to use 
another billing system and import/export data.

For me, having CDR data delivered as a Radius accounting packet would save 
me tons of development time, and many hours of additional work 
implementing a paralell billing system for the express purpose of accurate 
billing.

So.. I'll be happy to help out in the effort, but my C coding skills are 
rustier than hell, and more than likely I'll break many things along the 
way. ;)

On the other hand, if someone has a simple, open-source, SQL based 
billing, invoicing, CDR management program, I am all ears! If I can spend 
an hour or two setting up something that works well, with little effort, 
it would buy me lots of time.

For me, it is. Being able to take CDR data (Called Number, Port, Start

I don't have to implement a seperate billing program to charge for 
usage!

That is interesting. I've been approaching it from the Radius ACCOUNTING

As far as I know, that's more or less what Vonage does do. You register

The 911 office is most likely retreiving the address off of the line that is
placing the call. Do you have any voice lines in the other buildings?

I would consider a line siege device and FXO attached to a fax or security
system line in the other buildings. Route the dialed 911's out over the
local pots line and they will get the correct address. I don't know if you
can attach an address any other way.

You could try sending a different callerid, but if they are all billed as
being in the main building, that's probably the address they'll get.

I have a question on SIP devices that are setup and working but you
change the login name and contents to them why does asterisk need to be
shut down and restarted for them to work?  I have reloaded extensions
and done a reload command.  But the updated sip phones do not work until
I shut down and restart asterisk.  Is there any other way to update them
without restarting the system?  Since the system is used allot it's hard
to find a time to restart it.

I red that discussion, it was more on multiple outgoing calls. I noticed
with Iconnect, the sip invite message always comes as the
[EMAIL PROTECTED] So if I use two PSTN numbers to call
same Iconnect provided number, it arrives at asterisk as two different
calls. Iconnect seems like completely depends on the SIP response from * or
any SIP end point to figure out the call status (busy or on call). That is
why I think, it is IMPOSSIBLE to set the * to receive a call coming from
Iconnect to a particular context, other than general section, in it's
sip.conf. (I didn't hear from any one who got this working)

I think this is how, fwd and others are offering access numbers in many US
States. Using a single number many callers can get to their (fwd) network.

This is my observation, please correct me if I am wrong ?

Ehh, what exactly do you want to do? I've got * 'interfaced' via the ISDN S0

[Asterisk-Users] TDMoE

Hi all,

I am looking at setting up a TDMoE link between * boxes and am having a
rough time locating and documentation or configuration examples.  I have
gotten far enough to get the dynamic link up between boxes, but not sure
where to go from here.  I'm not even sure which modules need to be loaded.
I've loaded ztd-eth and ztdynamic, but saw something about ppp_generic so
I'm not sure if that's another one to include or not.  I've tried several
different config changes on the boxes to create the actual * PRI, but have
failed in miserable style!  When I run ztcfg with the dynamic span
configured as:

dynamic=eth,eth0/00:90:27:93:C0:60,24,0
e&m=3-26

it complains:

ZT_CHANCONFIG failed on channel 3: Invalid argument (22)
Did you forget that FXS interfaces are configured with FXO signalling
and that FXO interfaces use FXS signalling?

Any guidance on this, and the zapata.conf that finishes this, would be much
appreciated!  Thanks!

SW
[snip]

You should be able to hand off calls from Iconnecthere to whatever 
context you want, based on the IP address of the host that sends you 
the call.  The number in the call is irrelevant.

To answer a few of the other threads that seem to be unraveling out 
of this Subject:

 - anyone that offers "all-you-can-eat" dialplans will never, ever 
let you have more than one session outbound at a time.  If you find 
anyone that does, let me know.  I have some pipelining I need to test 
out...

 - Voicepulse and Nufone allow simultaneous calls, since they charge 
per minute.  As far as they're concerned, theoretically, you could 
fire up 200 sessions at once - that's great for them, they get paid 
on all of 'em.

 - It is the rumor that Vonage does not support simultaneous sessions 
due to back-office billing system problems which prevent their 
systems from discovering that there are multiple calls happening on 
the same number/account.  This leads me to conclude that they do not 
have a billing system that is fully functional, thus their plan of 
"all you can eat" is not 100% market-driven, thus their policy of 
"you don't get the password to your box or you'll cram us and it will 
be weeks before we realize we're bleeding."  Someone from Vonage who 
is reading this list (I'm sure there are several of you) may reply to 
refute this chain of assumptions if you wish, but I doubt you will.

[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk and Zaptel Load on Startup

2003-12-19 Thread Sean Cheesman
After searching the archives for a while, I couldn't find any easy way to
get everything loaded on startup.  So I decided to take a stab at writing
some notes on what I've found.  If everyone chips in, maybe we can make that
part easier for new users!

Both the Zaptel and Asterisk packages have a make option called config (make
config).  This option adds an entry to your init.d directory for the
applicable package, and registers it with the system.

If you edit the zaptel file that's created, you'll find a string called
MODULES that has most of the zaptel modules in it.  There's also a string
called RMODULES that appears to unload all modules loaded my MODULES.  If
you remove a module from one, you should probably remove it from the other.

Now who wants to correct, comment, or add to this?!

I would consider a line siege device and FXO attached to a fax or security
system line in the other buildings. Route the dialed 911's out over the
local pots line and they will get the correct address. I don't know if you
can attach an address any other way.
You could try sending a different callerid, but if they are all billed as
being in the main building, that's probably the address they'll get.
Aye, there's the rub.

I'll be brief on 911 and VoIP, but it's a topic about which I could 
complain several days.  The problem is threefold:

  1) which 911 center do we connect this VoIP user to?
  2) what caller ID do we give to the 911 center?
  3) how do we get street address to the 911 center for dispatch?
Some providers Whose Names Will Go Unmentioned Here have come up with 
a system that they are selling to large VoIP service 
providers/IPSCP's.  Without violating any NDA's (see references for 
public information sources) here is the general view for each option:

1) If you have the address of the customer, this E911 provider allows 
you to send (via XML over HTTP, apparently) the address information 
of the customer and their phone number to the central database.  The 
central database then feeds back to you the ten-digit phone number 
that lets you into the "normal" phone line for the 911 center.  It's 
then your job, as the IPCSP or PBX provider, to send the call the 
correct path to get to that ten-digit number.

2) Good question, especially with VoIP phones.  No "true" solution 
exists for this across all providers; it depends on implementation. 
If you have DID's associated with each station, you're in luck.  If 
you are using twelve digit random extensions, all homing out of one 
single DID for outbound caller ID, then you'll have to come up with 
some clever way around that, won't you?  My favorite is a temporary 
mapping of some small pool of DID's to the last SIP URI's that made 
911 calls - you have maybe a block of 1000 numbers that you 
round-robin and attach to 911 calls so that when the PSAP calls back 
the DID, they get auto-mapped to the SIP URI of the original caller. 
Maybe two or three days later, that number gets re-mapped somewhere 
else...  I haven't discussed this idea with any PSAP operators, but 
I'd be interested in opinions from the list as to it's usefulness.

3) You send your customer list and address information via some type 
of update to a central repository.  That repository is hooked into 
the brains of some of the 911 systems across the country (but 
potentially not all of them.)   The database is called ALI, or 
Automatic Location Information.   Updating ALI unless you are a large 
phone company (or ALI service provider) is very difficult, and is 
normally a very expensive proposition.  Small or medium PBX systems 
like Asterisk will be left far, far behind in this because the users 
are typically low-budget and don't have the time to waste building 
"relationships" with fussy sales- or paperwork-heavy organizations 
which can provide those services.  In any case, not always is it the 
case that the ALI provider can push the street address information 
all the way out to the PSAP, and also there is often a logical 
disconnect between the ALI data and the phone call itself if you're 
in a VoIP environment.
  Keeping the addresses updated in the ALI is 100% the problem of the 
ITCSP - there are at least four methods of this that have been 
discussed previously to solve this at a policy and technology level, 
all with various faults and favors, a combination of which I'm sure 
could see "acceptable" accuracy given the technology gap.
 Yes, it's much more complex than this, but I said I would be brief...

Solution: What is needed is a VOIP-CLUEFUL provider of E911 PSAP 
mapping data, ALI transfer, and maybe even SIP call forwarding and 
processing to PSAPs.  They should be low-priced on a monthly basis 
($1 a line?), have IP connectivity to customers across the public 
Internet, be open-source for their client-side implementations, and 
provide (possibly) reverse call mapping for customers via DIDs.   I 
would even support the construction of a non-profit compan

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Re: Land line vs. VoIP provider.

2003-12-19 Thread John Todd
It's certainly not _illegal_ in any way that I can think of, and I 
expect that anything is better than no information at all.  Sounds 
like a good idea.  The only shortcoming I can think of is the lack of 
ability for the PSAP to hear the address more than once without 
making an unacceptable delay in connecting the call if you read it 
back a few times.

This is yet another reason for Asterisk to support some type of 
in-band DTMF detection from within Dial and jumping using something 
other than the !$)%)$&!%^ "pound" (#) key.

"This is an emergency call from 123 Main Street, Nowhere, Nebraska, 
zip code 12345.  You will now be connected to the calling party. 
Press the star key at any time to hear this address again."

The trick would be to have Dial jump out without hanging up, process 
the possible dialed match string, run the extensions, play back the 
message again, and jump back into Dial and re-link the legs of the 
call.

Hmm...

[emergency]
exten => 911,1,Dial(Zap/g1/911,jA(read-the-address-file.wav))
exten => 911,2,Hangup
exten => *,1,Playback(read-the-address-file.wav)
exten => *,2,Goto(911,1)


New Dial Modifiers:
  'J' - Allow calling party to press a single digit to jump out of 
Dial.  The called party hears music on hold (if selected) or silence. 
If 'J' is specified and there was a previous incantation of a Dial 
with "J", then the leg is simply reconnected to the holding caller 
without re-dialing the channel.  If the digit specified is not in the 
context, no action is taken.  Only one jump may be specified in a 
string of Dials; latest jump wins, and previously Jumped Dials are 
hung up on if more than one is nested.
  'j' - Same as "J", but allows called party to press a digit.

What about having your VoIP gateway system placing a 911 call to the 911
answering center in the appropriate region and when the 911 operator
answers, have a message say "This is a 911 call from 123 Main Street,
Nowhere Nebraska" then connect the caller to the 911 operator.  Legal?
Maybe.  Dunno.  Just a random thought that I came up with on the way to
the aforementioned middle of nowhere, Nebraska.
 Not all VoIP providers will have Vonage's 911 issues.  It's perfectly
 possible for a VoIP provider to provide outbound caller information to
 the PSAPs if they spend the time and money to do so.

 Summary: if you're the only caller, calling only to the US, then you
 might be crazy to not use a land line, especially given the deals
 currently available and the  911 issue (but see
 http://www.vonage.com/features_911.php). Even then, if you already
 have
 broadband in house (or at home), VoIP amy be an attractive
 alternative,
 >> if only for the control it gives you over your phone service.

I would like to know if anyone has come up with a script for 911 dialing
rules that put correct information on our locations.  We have our office
in 3 different building one being our production & shipping dock.  It is
almost 2 blocks away.  We are connected with Ethernet Wireless between

Another solution that might work is to ask the phone company to change 
the address that they give the PSAP on one of your phone numbers to the 
other building, and then use that for 911.  

I don't know how big of a customer you are for your phone company, but 
if you have more than a token number of lines they'll hopefully go for it.

Another option is to call the non-emergency number of the dispatch center
and explain "this one number/address could actually mean someone is
calling from either this location or the one down the street...  Make sure
you get this information from the caller.".

Typically they can add some comments to their database at the dispatch
center (they typically use this feature for making note of things like
"site stores 3 million gallons of highly explosive substance", which the
phone company doesn't keep in their databases).  It's not as good as
knowing exactly where the call is coming from, but it is a start.  It
might be good for people that have non-local phone numbers, too, and 911
is translated to the non-emergency phone number.  If you call them up and
talk to them, they are typically glad to help.  They often are willing to
help you test the actual 911 part of your dial-plan, too (are you *SURE*
you haven't screwed that up?  The only way to find out is to test this -
WITH THE DISPATCH CENTER'S COOPERATION).  (this isn't a bad thing to do
even if you are using a land line with supposedly the right address - all
computer databases are not 100% accurate...)

That makes for a rather ill solution for the poor fool (like me, often) who
