 Not sure about nextel and cingular, but I know it works with them as well.
 
 Yes but that shows up as a text message.  Do you know offhand how to format
 hte message so the cell phone comes up and says that it's voicemail as
 opposed to a text msg?
 

Can be done via:

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Cell phone friendly MOH

2005-04-05 Thread Adam Holt
Musical preferences aside, I've always found that Euro dance and some Urban
tracks carry the best sonics onto mobile phones.

This no doubt has a lot to do with the fact that they tend to be heavily
compressed recordings and the electronic nature is more pervasive in the
channel than rock / guitar based songs.

Cheers...

Adam.

 When I call from my cell phone to my * (over PSTN/X100P/uLaw) the sound is
 choppy and sometimes there is silence.

Jay,

Some Sender-ID issues came up during our beta trials but AFAIK these have
all been fixed now in the live version.  Also regarding MWI, keep an eye on
your email in the next few days...

Worked pretty well last time I tried it, but they had issues submitting
the sender-id, and they were unable to format a MWI-message.  Prices
aren't all that competitive, you'll have to purchase 100,000 credits
before, or 33,333 SMSs before you hit the 10c/message barrier.

Chris,

I'm guessing you were one of our beta testers migrated over to a live
account.  This may be a configuration issue on your account.

Best to contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] - be sure to tell them your
account name (email address you registered with).

Kind regards,

2005-03-15 Thread Adam Holt
Thanks Ian for mentioning our offering.

We actually finished the beta yesterday and put the service live today.
Commercial pricing is now up on the website.

As I'm treading dangerously into the waters of self-promotion on a
non-commercial list, I shall say no more, but simply point you towards the
announcement here if you are interested:

It was easy to install and the example works fine.  No word on
commercial pricing yet but you can test in the meantime.

[Asterisk-Users] Re: Voicemail SMS Alert - Possible?

2005-03-15 Thread Adam Holt
Dean,

Appreciate the feedback on the Oz situation.

To be honest maintaining accurate reach list descriptions is pretty hard,
although we're trying to do the best job.

Essentially most of the input to the termination list comes from our Tier 1
interconnects where we get a full dump of their supported endpoints.
Unfortunately those are often difficult to interpret as the paired network
name is often not reflective of the brand under which that operator is known
in the market: the example of 3 being Hutchison Whampoa Telecom 3G
Services for instance, but not by far the most cryptic example across our
footprint.

The example you gave of One.Tel is actually still coming through from the
upstream network.  This might be though because the MSISDN range of One.Tel
has been preserved, although now moved under the administration of another
(still live) Oz network operator.

We therefore do our best to interpret the data we get and present that as
accurately as possible.  Clearly we don't have folk sitting out in all 165
countries on our supported termination list so we do the best value-add
research we can, but then of course its incredibly helpful for us to hear
from real users (like yourself) based in those locations and reflect that
input into the reach-list.

Regarding 3 and Virgin.  '3' we had some problems with during the Beta - I'm
not sure about the situation with Virgin.  What I would say is please feel
free to sign-up, and use the free credits to test these networks, and we
would really appreciate the feedback, good or bad, on or off list (!) to
help us perfect this thing.

Cheers...

Adam.

Adam,
I can only comment on Australia but you list one.tel as one of the
companies you can deliver sms's to.

One.tel ceased operations at least 18 months ago if not more.

I'm glad you developed this product and think any external asp delivered
service for asterisk is an exciting development but I just hope it works
a little better than you termination list indicates.


Cheers,
Dean
p.s. you don't mention Hutchison or 3 or Virgin which you might want to
check if you terminate with being that they are fairly large carriers.

[Asterisk-Users] New SMS gateway command

2005-02-28 Thread Adam Holt
I thought it might be of interest to the group to pass on information about
a replacement SMS command we have developed for sending text messages from
Asterisk.

The FASTSMS command will route text messages to mobile phones in 154
countries. Applications include voicemail notifications, missed call alerts,
automated text receipts for callers (e.g. call reference number), system
alerts, etc, etc.

The key distinctions of FASTSMS over the existing SMS command are:

* Worldwide SMS capability
* Dynamically set Sender ID to anything you like (including alphabetical
strings)
* High message throughput
* Internet based (doesn't require a free line to send)

If anybody's interested we're currently beta-testing (we already have a
number of testers since I previously put out a request on asterisk-uk) but
would certainly welcome additional interested users.

You can get more details from here:
http://www.bayhamsystems.com/asterisk.html

Cheers...

[Asterisk-Users] Re: Speech Recognition

2005-02-12 Thread Adam Holt
Spinvox have a distinct advantage over most telephony applications in that
their speech recognition does not have to occur in realtime - it simply
records the speech and then processes it afterwards.

I strongly suspect since the company always acts very tight-lipped about
their technology that it relies heavily on human operators.  Think about it
if the average translation of voicemail to text message was to take 2 mins,
that would cost them about 20p per message if they use minimum wage UK
workers.  Make that under 3p per message in the more likely scenario that
they are using a call-centre in India.

Since they charge you 25p per message this is a feasible business model, and
one that hasn't got to rely on any bleeding edge technologies.

[Asterisk-Users] Bandwidth control on a home office network

2004-10-16 Thread Adam Holt
Hi,
I have a Grandstream ATA today connected to my 750k broadband 
connection via an older router / firewall that doesn't have any QoS / 
ToS capability.  It works fine apart from the obvious problem of when 
large emails come in or somebody else on the network starts d/l-ing 
something big off the web.

I'm wondering whether to swap the router for a Cisco in order to 
introduce some local bandwidth control.

Alternatively I was wondering if I picked up a Cisco 7960 handset 
instead - is the 2nd ethernet port routed through the device, or does 
it just act as an Ethernet repeater, i.e. if I arranged the handset in 
the network as below would I get bandwidth prioritisation for the 7960?

[CABLE MODEM]--[7960]---[FW / ROUTER / HUB][REST OF MY 
NETWORK]

Thanks for any tips.
BR /adam.
