Re: [Asterisk-Users] Broadvoice asterisk patch

2004-11-10 Thread Ryan Wilkins
I was just about to ask a similar question having just received the 
message.

I'm more concerned about someone trying to spread a virus or something 
like that.  You have to admit that the URGENT, INSTALL THIS message 
with an attachment pretty much screams virus, even if its not.

I tried calling Broadvoice support but they want me to leave a message 
for them to call me later.  Can anyone comment on the validity of this 
message?

thanks,
Ryan Wilkins

I agree that sending a patch out via email blindly is not the 
appropriate method.  It would have been much better to send the email 
as they did but provide a link to download the patch from the 
Broadvoice website.  This would help verify the authenticity of the 
patch and not cause the discussion that it did.

In any case, the patch has been positively identified as being genuine.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] QoS Router/Software Suggestions

2004-10-12 Thread Ryan Wilkins
For what it's worth, I just shutdown my PC based gateway last week and 
replaced it with an Efficient Networks 5861 ADSL router.  The 5861 is 
billed as a Business Class DSL Router.  It comes with Stateful 
Firewall, DHCP, NAT, VPN, and QoS (WFQ), among other things.  I have 
not setup the QoS yet, but then I've been able to carry on VoIP 
conversations without issue, even on a well utilized line.

The idea was to find a suitable replacement with the PC-based gateway 
crashing on a semi-regular basis.  Instead of getting another PC, I 
just replaced the whole thing.  There are obviously some trade-offs but 
for my situation, it works well.

You said you use RoadRunner so this router wont work for you, but 
perhaps you have been entertaining a switch to DSL.  I use SpeakEasy 
and have had very few problems with them.

If you, or someone else reading this, decide to go the 5861 route get 
version 6.1.001 firmware.  The older firmware isn't that great.  You 
can find the 5861 on eBay for cheap.  I bought mine for $13.01.  Info 
on the 5861 can be found somewhere on http://www.efficient.com and the 
firmware can be found by searching for it on Google.

it doesn't do QoS. I'm using WinXP Pro and not sure if it does QoS. I'm
using SJ Phone and...(follow the pattern).

I have to stop all network traffic on my machine if I want to have any 
hopes
of making a clear call. But I shouldn't need to do that, right? Because
somewhere the data packets should be getting queued and my voice 
packets
should be having top priority right?

How can I ensure this?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] QoS Router/Software Suggestions

2004-10-12 Thread Ryan Wilkins
Not with an area served by Covad.  Speakeasy uses Covad to deliver the 
DSL service and Covad recently introduced their OneLink service which 
does NOT require an active phone line for DSL services.  What they do 
is charge $6/mo over the cost of regular service and run a dry pair to 
your location.  I'm in the process of switching to OneLink and dropping 
my POTS service, in favor of VoIP.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Linksys PAP2-NA

2004-09-24 Thread Ryan Wilkins
It's probably something akin to the older H.323 VxWorks based units where
the hardware is custom designed, but the software is the same or very
similar.  No sense reinventing the wheel if someone has code written
already and is willing to license the code.

Does anyone know anything about the ESS Visba 3 chipsets, or ES3890F in
particular?  That will be the microcontroller that runs the software.
A datasheet on the ES3890F would be useful is anyone has it.

This begs the question, again, that someone else posted originally..  what 
about loading SPA-2000 or PAP2-NA firmware in the PAP2?  If it's the same 
hardware, there shouldn't be any reason not to try it.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Broadvoice BYOD Plans - 3-way and Call Waiting

 I've already run into some trouble with Broadvoice. Broadvoice support tells 
 me that support isn't really available to BYOD plans, which I suppose I 
 understand given the variety of devices out there. I'm hoping that someone on 
 Asterisk-Users has seen the two issues I'm running into and has a suggestion.

They don't officially support Asterisk, but when I've called for support
the gentleman asked if I was running Asterisk and then gave me some ideas 
as to what the problem that I was experiencing was related to.

 The first issue I'm seeing is that incoming caller id shows the number as out 
 of area and the name shows as 147.135.8.129;bvoice I don't have this 
 problem with other incoming SIP providers -- is there some tweak I need to 
 make Asterisk see CID information from Broadvoice? 

I've not seen this.  While I've not connected up a CID capable phone to my
phone adapter, the Asterisk debug output clearly shows the proper CID name
and CID number when a call comes in.  I'm running Asterisk 1.0_RC2 with a 
Sipura SPA-2000 as my analog phone adapter.

You might try setting P_PTHREADS=1 in your Makefile.
I'm not actually certain if this will work, but it can't hurt anything.

No.

Look in the Makefile of the oh323 driver source.
Search down through the file for #P_PTHREADS=1 and remove the #.
Then recompile.  See if that helps your situation any.

It may.. or it may not.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] SIP -h.323

2004-08-13 Thread Ryan Wilkins
Yes, it can.. I'm doing it at my home.  My current setup is
Asterisk-1.0-RC2 using the oh323 driver.  I have a SIP connection to
Broadvoice talking to Asterisk.  I have a e-tel (now Qtelnet) H.323 VoIP
telephone adapter as my end point talking to Asterisk.

For processing sake, you may want to keep your codec the same all the way 
through.  Originally I ran G.711u on the SIP connection and G.711a on the 
H.323 connection.  It worked just fine but the logs always said something 
about transcoding between u-law and a-law.  I reset the H.323 link to 
G.711u and now it says nothing about transcoding.  In theory you would 
lose a bit of audio quality in the translation process.  In reality I 
don't really know.

email me privately if you want a sample config.
