I run 15 users over a DSL link on one end and a Internet T1 on the other with OpenVPN and it just rocks. The road warrior setup is down to running one script to create a file, email file to user and the user run one script. It has been rock solid for me.

Re: [asterisk-users] [OT] OMG Verizon is terrible
Remember the big lie with Verizon is not "The tech will be there at noon". It is "Your FOC (Firm Order Commit) date is xxx" The dates they give are neither Firm or Committed. Just ask them. As long as you remember, they are the Phone Company and you are just the customer. no body will be disapointed. Do I sound a lil grumppy. 5 and half week for fiber buildout quote. Yup, Im grumppy. alabun Lee Jenkins wrote: Steve Totaro wrote: They are all terrible in their own way. Don't you have someone you can delegate the Verizon babysitting responsibility to?

[asterisk-users] Dell hardware ...
I was going to use a Dell 1425 for Asterisk build but I see on Digium's website that hardware may be problematic. Can anyone shed a litle more light on the problem. I see the Intel ethernet cards seem to cause problems. If I need to disable the onboard Intel on the Dell hardware I can I just need to know what to expect. How about the 850, any word there ?

[Asterisk-Users] Covad anyone ...
Has anyone done any integration work with Covad's hosted solution ? I am considering Covad's hosted solution and want to be able to use Asterisk to develop some other apps. Anyone else tried this ? how did Covad react. I know they use MGCP. Another thing, the Cisco reseller rep tells me if I have a bunch of 7960's setup for MGCP (for use with Covad) I will need to get these phone hooked up to a Call Manager system to get them to load a SIP image for the first time. That doesn't fit with anything I have been reading from Cisco and other places. Any truth to that ?

Ok, if I missed something in the wiki please point me there with the correct search terms. Asterisk 1.0.7 (AAH really) 4 co lines from Bellsouth into a Diguim T400P. Polycom 501 x 4 on the desktops. My problem is on calls to or from the CO I hear a "pinging" (thing sonar ping in a submarine) every 12 seconds. You can set your watch to it. COuld this be a "call recording in progress" tone. I have not made any effort to turn on call recording. If it is I'll go figure out how to turn it off. Could this be echo cancelation "retraining" Am I just u8nder dosing on my morning meds ? Any guesses from anyone here. I just want the "pinging" to stop. One more thing, this machine is remotely managed and is in a distant city. If I really have to go I can.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] AstriCon 2006 Location
Louisville would be great for me. I'd get home to see the folks. Lots to do in Louisville, very reasonably priced. Dallas REALLY works for me, I'm already here. Dallas is not the cheapest to fly in and out of but there are LOTS of flights. Vegas, been there, done that. Had a good time, but it's still expensive to do most things outside the hotel. The Hover dam trip is nice but I've seen that. Show tickets are $50 (low end show) to $125 (something youd want to see). For me that's expensive. Just my 10 cents worth ( that would be two cents + inflation + my handling fee 8-) ) Alan Jonathan k.

As little transcoding as possible. G.729 licenses. If Dell is not the answer how about sharing what works. I do need a natinal brand that I can take to managment.
