Hi,

I am not surprised you managed to sort out your echo problems quickly
and easily. You see, the Panasonic KX-TA624 behaves the same every time,
while a PSTN line would have a varying quality, noise, echo every time,
depending on the other end sometimes.

Hi,

the best thing to do is get a Sipura 3000 that has 1 FXO and 1 FXS port.
You won't need to bother with IRQs and echo problems that at least here
in UK we have with FXO cards.

Hi everyone!

Okay. I was reading on the voip-info.org about FXO and FXS. Is it 
possible just to get a card with FXO and FXS together? I know Digium 
sells them, but as I've said, I'm looking to spend too much.

Thanks for everyone's input!
Logan.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Re: www.openpbx.org

Personally, I believe it's a good thing. It gives more choice.

Look at other products: IPCop (Linux based firewall) is a fork derived from
Smoothwall. They made such a nice job that Smoothwall were playing catch-up
with IPCop for quite some time. I don't know the current situation.

GPL allows forking and forking is a form of evolution.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] a simple call to my girlfriend

2005-06-02 Thread Yiannis Costopoulos
No it wouldn't. It doesn't run on his laptop.

I would suggest two FWD accounts with two SIP softphones.

Unless you really want to go the Asterisk way and use IAX softphones over
NAT that works slightly better.

[Asterisk-Users] Satellite Providers

2005-05-11 Thread Yiannis Costopoulos
Hi All,

I am investigating the deployment of VoIP/* in Eastern European areas 
where
there is no PSTN infrastructure. As you can understand DSL/Cable connections
are a dream. The only option is satellite.

Does anyone know of any satellite providers that have low enough/acceptable
delays for VoIP?

Thanks,
Yiannis.

Yes, it's true! Connect the card to a phone line and the Red Alert
disappears. I don't think it draws power from the phone line, but it gives a
red alert if the phone line is not there. I have experienced it myself!

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Fax over IP doesn't works

2004-10-19 Thread Yiannis Costopoulos
Well,

assuming that some of these CODECS do error correction and drop any
information that hasn't come through instead of doing error detection and
request to re-transmit the lost information, is somewhat expected. Are there
any Fax over IP protocols?

As far as I know there are quite few companies out there that do FXO
Gateways. Mediatrix does a 2-port and 4-port anologue FXO model. The other
solutions is a Sipura-3000. The Sipura 3000 will need it's own dialplan too,
because it has an FXO, FXS and Eth port. So, you will have to do some
configuration. Some people have reported different issues with it. one of
them is over-heating. I haven't used any of the Mediatrix products, or any
other FXO gateway, so I don't have personal experience.

I hope it helps,
Yiannis.

[Asterisk-Users] Distinctive Ringing for SipToneII

2004-10-14 Thread Yiannis Costopoulos
Hi,

I have a couple of IpDialog SipToneII phones and although I understood that
they had a choice of 5 ringtones, it turns out that it is Distinctive
Ringing. I contacted IpDialog support and sent me this.

---snip--
The phones you have support 5 different ringtones and 4 call waiting
tones.  You do not need new firmware.  Please see attached document.
The phone will ring differently depending on the contents of the
Alert-Info header sent to the phone in the SIP INVITE.  Some have used
this feature on our phone to create two virtual lines on the phone.  If
you create two aliases (phone numbers) for the same phone in your PBX,
and send a different Alert-Info header for each phone number, the phone
will ring differently for each "line."  Here's an example of how to use
Alert-Info:

INVITE sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED] SIP/2.0
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 192.68.202.101:5065

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Best Linux for Asterisk

Have there been noticed any differences in echo from distro to distro on the
very same hardware?
I mean install a distro compile and run *, then replace it with another
distro on the same box and cards.
That could be intersting.

I personally use Fedora Core 1 and 2 successfully at home.  Gentoo
seems to be the most widely agreed upon distribution though.  I don't
think anyone would slam you for using Asterisk on it.

[Asterisk-Users] X100P Red Alarm after echo on the line

2004-07-26 Thread Yiannis Costopoulos
Hi,

I have an Asterisk box with two P100X connected on two UK (BT) lines. When
I make a call, sometimes, I get too much echo and the system gives me a Red
Alert. After that the line is busy. If I disconnect the line from the X100P
and I call the line, I get ringing tone. When I reconnect the line on the
X100P I get busy tone. For some reason the X100P gets to a state that stays
open.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Yiannis.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] X100P Inbound Issue

2004-07-26 Thread Yiannis Costopoulos, Web2Net Solutions Ltd.



Hi,
 
    I think that the problem is with the codecs. Search the 
Wiki and the list archives (through Google) to find what settings in sip.conf 
you need for Budgetone and Sipura. The settings you need are *allow* and/or 
*disallow*.

  [Asterisk-Users] X100P Inbound Issue
  Hello,
   
  After much searching of voip-info.org and google, I'm finally giving in 
  and asking the list.
   
  The setup I have is this:-
   
  Single X100P card in a Debian system
  Inbound/Outbound POTS line connects to the X100P
  Sipura 2000 and Budgetone 100 on the LAN
  1 Cordless and one conventional phone connected to the sipura
  Account on Stanaphone.com for eitherbound SIP calls.
  (I have other SIP accounts as well - all work flawlessly)
   
  I have a simple dialplan - an incoming call rings all phones and goes to 
  voicemail if not answered.
   
  When I dial '8' followed by a number - the call routes out via Stanaphone 
  fine.  No issues.
  When I call the Stanaphone number - all phones ring as expected, I can 
  answer the call and talk fine.  no issues at all.
   
  When I dial '9' followed by a number - the call routes out via the POTS 
  line just fine. No issues.
   
  However, inbound calls on the POTS line are the issue.  When a call 
  comes in, * detects it and starts ringing all of the extensions.  
  However, when I pickup the extension - it gets immediately disconnected.  
  Other SIP extensions keep ringing - and the caller still hears the ring 
  tone.  Caller hangs up - SIP extensions keep ringing. Phone I picket up I 
  now return to the hook.  * then 'calls me back' !
   
  Does anybody have any idea what's going on?  I have put some 
  snippets from the configs below..  Any insight would be very much 
  appreciated!
   
  Michael.

Hi,

I know that this issue has been discused guite a lot, but I haven't managed
to get a definite answer. Is those two values supposed to be floats (e.g.
3.5) or integers with the percent symbol (e.g. 20%)?

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Installing X100P

2004-07-21 Thread Yiannis Costopoulos
The extension of an incoming call through the X100P is s. So,

[incoming]
exten => s,1,Answer
exten => s,2,Dial(SIP/200)
exten => s,3,Hangup

[outgoing]
exten => _9.,1,Dial(ZAP/g1/${EXTEN,1})


You need to dial 9 from your SIP phone to get an outside line and then the
number you wish to dial.
g1 stands for "group 1". Add this into your zapata.conf under the X100P.

Yiannis.

That did it.  I have the wcfxo running and channeled.  Now I just have
to beat my dial pan.  I can dial internally to all my SIPs but outbound
and inbound off the X100P are still not running.  Do I just do this...

Define [incoming] in extensions
[incoming]
exten => 1234567,1,Dial(SIP/2000) ; 1234567 = a local incoming call
number?
exten => 1234567,2,Congestion

Is this correct?

Thanks for the help!

[Asterisk-Users] Up to date?

2004-07-20 Thread Yiannis Costopoulos
Hi,

before you start throwing stones to me let me tell you that I am a bit new
to Linux. I downloaded Asterisk from the cvs server on Wednesday 15 July
2004, as described in Andy Powell's "Getting Started with Asterisk"
(http://www.automated.it/guidetoasterisk.htm). Thanks Andy! I read about the
Asterisk 1.0 RC1, and I would like to download it and install it.

Could someone tell me what is the best way to proceed, considering that I
already have a configuration that I would not like to loose, and that I
would like to have the option to roll-back to the version I already have, if
all goes pear-shaped?

TIA
Yiannis.

[Asterisk-Users] Line Display

2004-07-16 Thread Yiannis Costopoulos, Web2Net Solutions Ltd.
Hi,

I am thinking of using * with IP phones instead of a hardware PBX.

The situation is like this. I have 3 different companies having an analogue
line for each of them. I want to make sure that when a call comes in, we
have an indication on the IP phone which line the call comes from. Is this
possible? Do I need IP phones with 3 lines? Are there any IP Phones with at
least 3 lines?

Thanks,
Yiannis.

[Asterisk-Users] Multiple X100P in Asterisk box?

2004-06-27 Thread Yiannis Costopoulos, Web2Net Solutions Ltd.
Hi,

I am the "IT guy" at a small startup based in UK. At the moment we have 3
analogue (PSTN) lines and we will be adding another 2 or 3 soon. Later on we
should be changing to ISDN30.

One of the partners mentioned getting an analogue PBX now, and when we move
to ISDN, then get a digital PBX. I though of Asterisk. I have seen the
website in the past and I know that it can do the job (even better than a
PBX).

I need to know, is it possible to have multiple X100P (5 or 6) cards in the
same Asterisk box? What phones should I use in the office? Any suggestions?
Are soft phones reliable enough on Windows PC's for a small
call-centre/telesales department (5-6 stations)?

Thanks,
Yiannis.
