What's truly interesting is that JerJer from NuFone reared his 
unappealing head on the linked page, and commented on single points of 
failure.  In my experience, NuFone IS a single point of failure in and 
of itself.  Does anyone still deal with those idiots?

I have the same issue with the ringing currently, so I force a ring.

I have been a VP connect customer for a few years, mow traffic,
outgoing only. I have had very good experiences and they are usually
the lowest cost for a USA route, often less than .01/min retail.

2007-08-08 Thread John Meksavan
Asterisk Users,

  Has anybody use Voicepulse Connect for Asterisk?

  I am trying to cover all my bases because in the past, I got burned with 
poor quality of service, along with failed DTMF tones with 3 different SIP 
Providers (Vitelity, Broadvoice, and Teliax).

  I am running Asterisk 1.2.13 on the Debian Etch system, using the SIP 
protocol.  Any insights would be great.  Thanks.

John,

Voicepulse Connect has been great to me. I've been using it for over a year
now, and do not have any major complaints, except that there are no
printable receipts for credit card transactions. SIP is also the preferable
protocol, as IAX seems to have some issues. Customer service is usually
pretty good, and there have been very few (although a couple) problems with
service outages.

My experience with Voicepulse has been good and quality is usually very
good.  Most of the time when calls get distorted the problems can be
traced to my ISP.  Unfortunately you will never be able to get 100%
reliability when using the Internet.

Re: [asterisk-users] VoicePulse Connect

2007-08-08 Thread Wes Baehr
If you cannot afford any dropped calls or poor audio quality, you need a PRI
or POTS connection. It doesn't matter how great the carrier is, the Internet
is an unreliable medium.

2-3 times VoicePulse has had issues with incomings calls ringing busy. Once
incoming calls were all garbled on my end, although the customer could hear
me fine.

Generally, the outbound service is reliable. However, you should have a
backup carrier anyway.

Wes, I'm working through some issues with IAX and Voicepulse right now.  
It was regarding dropped inbound calls.  I was able to put my server 
into a different location though, and so far the issues have disappeared 
so hopefully it was a network problem somewhere between us.Just 
curious what problems you encountered as I would prefer to use IAX if 
possible.


John, I've tried a few services, and Voicepulse was the clear winner for 
me.  I still have two other services in my dialplan for failover, but 
Voicepulse will remain the primary for now.  The voice quality has been 
very good, and their technical support has been absolutely fantastic for 
a no-charge service.

I've experienced the beginning silence sensation with IAX (no firewalls).
As far as audio dropping out, that sounds like firewall or intertube issues.
Along with the other problems, I gave up on IAX and went pure SIP (except
for that pesky iaxmodem -- however, that works fine when receiving faxes
from a SIP trunk).

 I had a lot of problems with garbled IAX calls (even when calling into

 IAX call to an outgoing SIP call, though that may be a fault of
 Asterisk. Since using SIP everything has been working perfectly. I never
 had any real problems with dropping calls (that weren't on my end).
 However, I don't use IAX anymore, so I am not aware of any current issues.

This is interesting information -- I've had similar problems with IAX
trunks on totally different carriers.

Example: Callers do not hear the remote ringing, or only some of the
rings, or don't hear the beep tone for voice mail.

IAX is easier if you're behind a firewall :(

 Asterisk Users,

   Has anybody use Voicepulse Connect for Asterisk?

   I am trying to cover all my bases because in the past, I got burned with
 poor quality of service, along with failed DTMF tones with 3 different SIP
 Providers (Vitelity, Broadvoice, and Teliax).

   I am running Asterisk 1.2.13 on the Debian Etch system, using the SIP
 protocol.  Any insights would be great.  Thanks.



I've had too many DTMF problems and quality of service issues with
VoicePulse Connect. The DTMF was an issue from only certain mobile
carriers, they could not fix it.

Re: [asterisk-users] VoicePulse Connect 4 Channel Limit?

2006-10-22 Thread Andrew Joakimsen

I would worry about using Voicepulse as your primary provider, even if
they didn't impose their draconian policies. You could have 20 numbers
paying $220/month in your account and you still get only four calls,.
However if you were to open 20 voicepulse connect accounts and put one
number on each, you would still pay the same $220/month however  you
could get up to EIGHTY -- thats 20 times more! -- for the SAME EXACT
PRICES

Also VoicePulse DOES NOT use Tier 1 providers. We notice every week or
so during peak hours a very bad degrigation of the voice quality. If
you have an IVR and call it from a landline, it will sound like crap.
It's the quality of service you would expect from a free provider.
Aggrivated to this, when you contact them they try to blame YOU for
their issues. They told me I HAD to run PingPlotter (a WINDOWS
program, besides the fact this is VoicePulse Connect for Asterisk
and Asterisk is software for Linux) which was not possible on a
co-located machine.

Also we ported a bunch of phone numbers and the DTMF does not work. If
you dial 5551212 VoicePulse might recognise and pass to us 55112
and again instead of trying to troubleshoot the issue (from the SAME
phone it always produced CONSISTANT behavior -- the ported number does
not accet DTMF correctly, assigned # work!) they blame us and the
phones we use. I went as far as going to Sprint PCS store and EVERY
CDMA phone in the store would produce the same result!

In the end, don't bother with VoicePulse. The quality of the service
and the support and just the treatment you get is not worth the price.
For $11/month per number and their draconian channels and also billing
policy (I wont even get into that) I expect a PREMIUM service and they
deliver something about par for a free service.


Here's some typical behavior from their servers:

I use myphonecompany.com. They have DID's for $5.00 
a month and they 'let you' use 2 channels for per did (you can use more but they 
dont like it if you abuse it). I had a client that needed 4 concurent channels 
so they told him to just purchase 2 did's. So if you need 8 concurent incoming 
channels it will cost you a total of $20.00 for inbound services :)

  if this is the case. I noticed that they supposedly only allow 4

  to have 8 concurrent channels then this could get costly. Too costly in my

  around the same price. I can understand the channel restrictions for inbound

[Asterisk-Users] Voicepulse Connect! and SIP settings

2006-02-06 Thread JCC










Is anyone out there
using Voicepulse Connect! Service under SIP with Asterisk successfully? And if
so, can you please post the sip.conf settings. I know that Voicepulse
recommends for the service to be used in IAX2, but it would be nice to use as
an alternate SIP when they are having problems with their IAX2 servers.



Thanks in advance Juan.

VOIP service providers are now required to provide E911 service to their
customers or they may not sign up additional customers. This is in the US
only. One provider has about 95% of their customers set up for E911 service. I
know that CNN had a couple of articles on it on their website in the Tech
section.

The big stink was the FCC gave everyone 120 days to implement. Next stop will
probably be US District Court in Washington, D.C.

actually entering payment info but I would think if they were disabling
it they would do that at step 1.

[Asterisk-Users] Voicepulse Open Access status?

2005-11-27 Thread Paul
I have not had my 2 voicepulse open access numbers work for about 3
weeks now. I have even tried to make them work on a new server build
using asterisk 1.2

I have several SIP and IAX DID's working fine. They worked fine on
asterisk 1.0.x and easily were moved to the 1.2 setup.

sip show registry indicates they are registered oaky but calls to both
numbers go to voicepulse voice mail. If I setup hunt and fileters at the
voicepulse web portal, that seems to work. For example, I can make the
numbers ring my cell phone instead of going to voice mail. The primary
number on the account works with the SPA-2000 ATA fine. I just used it
to call the vonage number that comes into the asterisk system and I am
using echo test as I type this.

If anyone here has working voicepulse open access numbers could you
please post sample lines from sip.conf and extensions.conf? If anyone
here has been experiencing the same type of extended outage, I would
like to hear about it because I am going to ask them to waive charges
for at least one month of these softphone numbers.

I was very tempted to put Please help!!! in the subject line today.

If I don't get any replies I guess that means voicepulse sucks and I
should cancel these numbers :)

I thought it might make more sense to start with an example config from
someone who currently has incoming calls working.

As I mentioned already sip show registry lists the 2 voicepulse numbers
as registered. I have a console open with -rv and get no messages
when I dial the numbers. In the past I have always been able to get some
diagnostic info on the console when registered if something like context
or codecs was amiss.

This is voicepulse retail open access softphone - SIP only.

I appreciate the replies but I don't see any from people reporting they
are able to use voicepulse softphone accounts. Interesting.


Anyway, I saw the following type thing:

Looking for s0022 in default

where s0022 is the username. So I added extensions that match and
incoming now works. Looks to me like they have changed something at
voicepulse with the usual policy of not notifying subscribers.

Thanks. I can't seem to find anything listing additional gateways. I am
using retail SIP. I suppose I can sniff traffic on the SPA-2000 to see
what addresses/ports it is talking with.
  

I ordered a vonage softphone and had it working quick.

I built 1.2 rc2 for debian sarge and installed it on another box. I
migrated the vonage did to it, called and did echo test.

Experimenting a bit I found only 2 lines are needed if you only need
incoming for a vonage softphone:

in sip.conf
register=1207433:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:5061/1207433

in extensions.conf
exten = 1207433,1,Goto(default,s,1)

Nothing working for vp. In my trouble ticket I added:

I search the knowledge base and only find config samples for IAX with
the connect product. I need SIP for open access examples.

for some weeks now I have been unable to make calls via my voicepulse
connect IAX account?
When I attempt the console looks like this:-

rt*CLI 
-- Executing Dial(SIP/2008-cf55,
IAX2/NBhXX:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/12124565900) in new
stack
-- Called NBhX:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/12124565900
-- Call accepted by 66.234.228.160 (format ulaw)

-- Hungup 'IAX2/66.234.228.160:4569/1'
-- Executing HasNewVoicemail(SIP/2008-cf55, 2002) in new stack
rt*CLI 

and Asterisk speaks back to me 96 96 

And thats it!?

I'm not aware I changed anything at this end.

Asterisk 1.07.

Thanks

Re: [Asterisk-Users] VoicePulse DTMF Problems Anyone?

2005-06-11 Thread Rich Adamson
 We are developing an IVR application and when I am testing locally on
 my machine using a softphone (iaxcomm) the digits I press for GET DATA
 work every time.  I am testing with a local extension that goes right
 into my routine.  However when I try to call in to the system using an
 analog or cell phone GET DATA drops some digits that are pressed. 
 There doesn't seem to be a pattern to which digits get dropped either.
  Digits in the beginning middle or end gets dropped equally.
 
 I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing similar issues.  I
 believe the problem lies with VoicePulse because we are using them for
 IAX connections.  I don't believe its a bandwidth problem on my
 network (cable) because I have tried the same exact system/config
 everything on another network (T1) and the same digit dropping
 continues to happen. This is happening with a load of 1 call.
 
 Is this problem with VoicePulse?  Is anyone else experiencing it?  Can
 anyone recommend a more reliable company?

In most previous cases, dtmf issues have been related to how you
define your interfaces. For sip definitions, use dtmfmode=rfc2833.

Some itsp's have an issue with asterisk in that a completed iax call 
to an asterisk IVR is considered an answered call, and therefore 
expect dtmf tones to be passed to the endpoints. In this case, the
dtmf tones are expected to be generated by the phone and passed
to the IVR as inband audio tones. I'm not a voicepulse user, so don't
know if they have some particular problem or not.

If the dtmf digits are expected to be passed as inband audio tones,
then a reasonable codec would need to be specified. Might try ulaw
if you are using something different now.

My system has iax trunks from multiple itsp providers, multiple
iax links to other companies that we work with, a variety of sip
phones (each defined with rfc2833), and multiple analog pstn lines. 
We don't have a problem (cvs-head) with an IVR that starts out as:

[bus-ivr-main]
exten = s,1,Wait,1
exten = s,2,Answer
exten = s,3,Set(TIMEOUT(digit)=5)
exten = s,4,Set(TIMEOUT(response)=15)
exten = s,5,Background(abc-greeting)  ; Thanks for calling press 1 for  
exten = s,6,Hangup

Rich,

Thanks for the input.  I am just using the default Asterisk settings
for IAX so I would think in that case I wouldn't be the only person
experiencing this.  What I did was set up an account with BroadVoice
and setup a SIP connection.  After trying about 15 times, this new
connection has gotten every digit pressed.  When we started developing
3 weeks ago the VoicePulse IAX setup I have was catching all the
digits I would press. It seems only lately that the same setup has
gotten worse (although at certain times it works well).

It does seem to me the problem was probably due to some network issues
at VoicePulse.

Thanks,
Michael

  phones (each defined with rfc2833), and multiple analog pstn lines.
  We don't have a problem (cvs-head) with an IVR that starts out as:
 
 Rich,
 
 Thanks for the input.  I am just using the default Asterisk settings
 for IAX so I would think in that case I wouldn't be the only person
 experiencing this.  What I did was set up an account with BroadVoice
 and setup a SIP connection.  After trying about 15 times, this new
 connection has gotten every digit pressed.  When we started developing
 3 weeks ago the VoicePulse IAX setup I have was catching all the
 digits I would press. It seems only lately that the same setup has
 gotten worse (although at certain times it works well).
 
 It does seem to me the problem was probably due to some network issues
 at VoicePulse.

That's entirely possible. Had something similar with livevoip.com (with
the answered iax call issue).

You should be able to determine whether its a voicepulse issue by either
doing a iax debug (look for the dtmf digits), or, using ethereal to 
trace the packets. Both methods should show the pressed dtmf digits as
values passed in the iax frame. If you don't see those, then its likely
voicepulse is passing the dtmf tones as audio (try different codec).

Did you see the Type: DTMF  Subclass: 3 (for pressing the 3 digit)
in the iax debug?

If you're seeing those, then codec selection has nothing to do with it.

We take in four digits on a regular basis with no errors at all. I would
doubt the number of digits has anything to do with it; it either has
accurate dtmf interpretation or you don't on a per digit basis.

By doing iax2 debug and arranging an inbound call where someone presses
the dtmf keypad. Debug will create a fair amount of cli output and you
have to look closely for Type: DTMF Subclass: 3 messages intermingled
in the cli output.

If you are not seeing any of those, then voicepulse is sending the dtmf
via inband audio tones. The accuracy of inband audio tones will be less
then if the dtmf digits are sent within iax packets (Type: dtmf). If they
are arriving via inband audio, that's likely your problem as any missed
or dropped iax frames will seriously distort the dtmf audio. Asterisk
won't be able to detect the correct digit.

Since you indicated that sometimes it works and other times it doesn't,
that probably is indicative of network congestion between the two 
endpoints (your asterisk and voicepulse) and missed or dropped packets.

Using iax2 debug I can see when numbers are pressed it's just some
never make it through so they don't show up in the debug.

Okay, then you've just proven that its a voicepulse problem, or, you're
experiencing dropped packets between your asterisk and voicepulse. If
the audio on calls is good, then its probably voicepulse.

[Asterisk-Users] VoicePulse DTMF Problems Anyone?

2005-06-10 Thread Michael Stearne
We are developing an IVR application and when I am testing locally on
my machine using a softphone (iaxcomm) the digits I press for GET DATA
work every time.  I am testing with a local extension that goes right
into my routine.  However when I try to call in to the system using an
analog or cell phone GET DATA drops some digits that are pressed. 
There doesn't seem to be a pattern to which digits get dropped either.
 Digits in the beginning middle or end gets dropped equally.

I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing similar issues.  I
believe the problem lies with VoicePulse because we are using them for
IAX connections.  I don't believe its a bandwidth problem on my
network (cable) because I have tried the same exact system/config
everything on another network (T1) and the same digit dropping
continues to happen. This is happening with a load of 1 call.

Is this problem with VoicePulse?  Is anyone else experiencing it?  Can
anyone recommend a more reliable company?

Thanks,
Michael

[Asterisk-Users] Voicepulse connect has doubled their rates

This is the downside of VOIP.  It is unregulated.

I have published and distributed my new VOIP phone number, and now, with

Ouch..  Beware of which provider you choose!

There is nothing to prevent them from doubling my rates again on May 1st!

Getting a little dramatic there, aren't we? 

It's going from 7.95 ( 8 bucks ) a month to 11 bucks, an increase of 
72%.  That's hardly what I'd call doubling ( unless you're using that 
new math I've heard so much about ).

And it's still cheaper than my land line, when you consider that all 
incoming calls are free, as well as all 1800 numbers.  For everything 
else, there's voip-jet. 

Not that I apprecaite the raise much myself, but hey, this industry is 
still in it's infancy.  It gets too bad, someone else will take their place.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Voicepulse connect has doubled their rates

2005-03-30 Thread Max W Blackmer Jr

 It's going from 7.95 ( 8 bucks ) a month to 11 bucks, an increase of
 72%.  That's hardly what I'd call doubling ( unless you're using that
 new math I've heard so much about ).

h, actually it is only a 28% increase.  you want to see outrageous
you should see my gas bill.

2005-03-30 Thread Sean Kennedy
Perhaps I misspoke.  A land line would run me ~20 bucks a month.  A VP 
number will run me 11 bucks a month.  I only specify the free incoming 
calls because that's a distguishing characteristic of voip DIDs, many 
places do not give you free incoming.

And anyway, if you are a consumer customer, your incoming calls are not 
free.  So there you go.

Ouch..  Beware of which provider you choose!
There is nothing to prevent them from doubling my rates again on May 1st!

I don't see how it could be firewall issues.  I have firewall ports 4569
and 5036 open for UDP traffic to and from the Asterisk server.
Yesterday we conducted a conference call that lasted several hours
without a drop, just periodic dead spots for a few seconds.  Other
calls disconnect entirely.

Hi Admin,

I use the connect service from voicepulse ( as I am sure you do, just
specifying for future searches ), and I haven't had any of these
problems you have mentioned.  I do have a problem when the call is
connected, there's about half a second of silence about half a second
into the call, on every call.  I mention it here in case it's related.

Honestly, my first instict says this is a firewall problem.  Is that at
all possible with your setup?

In cases where a provider offers a choice of SIP or IAX2 I have been 
wondering if the provider would be using a * server in either case. I 
prefer IAX2 as long as I know the provider has adequate server capacity 
for the load. Otherwise I would think that getting my handoff directly 
from SIP gateways would be more reliable.

I have also seen this in the last couple of weeks...   I've had some 
long (90 min) calls.. and had it happen a few times during the same 
call... though I've not taken the time to pull any logs.  My net
service 
at home can be spotty sometimes...  so I thought it might have been 
caused by that.  It's not been bad enough to terminate a call... just 
10-15 seconds of silence.

I have had similar problems with VoicePulse for 2 - 3 months now.  Along
with random dropped calls, we have also experienced dial-in problems.

VoicePulse tech support has been utterly silent despite several emails
and phone calls.  We're now trying out SixTel and Live VoIP.  Live VoIP
has recently had a problem with our (and others) DID numbers, but they
have been very responsive and it looks like the problem will be solved
shortly.

[Asterisk-Users] voicepulse silence during conversations

2005-03-09 Thread Sean Kennedy
Hi all, I'm running Asterisk 1.0.0.  I am a customer ( and supporter ) 
of voicepulse.  For me, it works perfectly, but one of my customers 
noticed a small problem:  During a conversation, when the otherside 
isn't talking, it's almost like the mic turns off. 

Not that big of a deal I know, and the more I think about it, the more 
this seems a voicepulse issue.   But in the off chance this could be 
something on my end:

Asterisk 1.0.0
Connecting to voicepulse via iax, ulaw codec
Polycom 500 IP SIP phone, ulaw codec
I'll be honest, I don't notice it at all, but my customer does, and I'd 
like to make them as happy as I can with this system. 

Also ( I would feel silly making another thread out of this ) what are 
the common reasons for echo between sip phones going through two 
different asterisk servers?  As in phone - asterisk A - asterisk B - 
phone.  I've been searching for it, but I'm not having much luck.

Thank you, any help is greatly apprecaited!

Not sure if the ploycom has it, but make sure that it is

Yes, Ironic isn't it. That SIP/VOIP is so digitally clear that you don't
hear the pops, cracks and whistles of the old analog phones. The only
analog is from the human to the machine. The old analog phone humans
hear it, soon there will another generation of humans who have never
used an analog phone. 

Anyone remember the transition from long distance operators to direct
dial. Or from pulse to touch tone? Back in 1992 I tried to make a
calling card call using a rotary phone in Alabama, where they had 5
digit dialing. I was stumped looking at a phone with no pound/# sign on
it.

I first noticed this silence quirk when I was working with a 3COM SIP
phone back in 2000. The crystal clear voice and silence made me feel
like the phone was not working or that the other person had hung-up.

You also have to be careful of background noise in the room; phones with
good microphones will let the other end here everything going in the
room you are in.

the issue is lack of sidetone
u can google sidetone
sidetone is feedback u get from the mike to your earpiece that
the fone generates to let u know the circuit did not go dead
when people stop talking
i find the lace of sidetone extremely annoying and so will many customers
with asterisk
i have found lack of sidetone on the grandstream budgetone
i have found perfect sidetone on the cisco 79xx and also on the sipuras

[Asterisk-Users] Voicepulse DNID is blank - Any other options?

2005-02-06 Thread Tim Burt
I just signed up for a second voicepulse number.

I assumed that I would be able to differentiate which number the caller
dialed.

But DNID is empty and DIALEDPEERNUMBER is empty and CHANNEL contains the
same info (almost, with the exception of a randomly assigned suffix) for
both numbers.

Does anyone know how I might determine which number was called?

Note, this is not CALLERID.  I need the number that the caller CALLED.

As a last resort, I guess I could use a different provider for the second
number.

Can anyone shed any light?

Thanks in advance!

Maybe I am missing your exact point, but what about handling this in
your extensions.conf

[voicepulse-incoming]
exten = 2124007999,1,Goto(nyc,s,1)
exten = 2124007998,1,Goto(nyc2,s,1)

That will put calls to 2124007999 into context nyc and calls to
2124007998 into context nyc2.

I guess the real questions is what is your ultimate goal?

When you go hiking in the mountains, always carry a short section of 
fiber-optic cable in your backpack.  If you ever get lost and cannot 
find your way, just bury the fiber in the ground.  A backhoe will arrive 
shortly thereafter to dig it up...

[Asterisk-Users] voicepulse problems since new configs

2004-09-13 Thread Steve Totaro





Voicepulse has ignored 
four emails over the course of two weeks.

Anyone have any ideas of whats wrong?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] VoicePulse Connect DTMF with IAX2

2004-08-31 Thread Michael Welter
I'm using RC2 and last weekend's changes from VoicePulse.  Outbound 
calling and dtmf works fine.  However, an inbound call to my DID cannot 
send dtmf digits to the IVR.

Thoughts?

RE: [Asterisk-Users] VoicePulse Connect DTMF with IAX2

 calling and dtmf works fine.  However, an inbound call to my DID
cannot
 send dtmf digits to the IVR.

I have the same problem...my iax.conf is set up exactly as recommended
per the recent Voicepulse changes and the configs they sent - my CVS is
7/14/04. Both inbound and outbound calling work, but no DTMF received on
inbound calls.  I found a post on the broadband reports forums regarding
this issue, there where a few people who thought that it may affect VP
customers who signed up for a DID in a new VP rate center/exchange...for
example I've been waiting for VP to offer Colorado DID's (303 or 720)
for quite awhile...so when I saw that they were available recently, I
jumped on it and ordered one...so this a fairly new area code for them
and I have the DTMF problem.

I read other people that signed up for a fairly new area code having the
same problem and emailing VP support to get it straightened out...

I myself have sent them an email which they say they are checking
into...I will be sure to let people know what my findings are.

Marty
