[asterisk-users] Info: Nokia E65 working with Asterisk

2007-03-08 Thread Robert Jenkins
Hi,
Just for information on compatibility:
Earlier this week I got a Nokia E65 which supports WiFi and SIP.

I got the WiFi side configured to work with an access point after several
attempts.
This eventually had to be done using all manual settings, as using it's
config wizard gave WEP Key errors despite many attempts and careful
verification.

It's WiFi system is not particularly sensitive, it does not detect an AP at
the far side of the building that is quite useable from the this location by
a typical notebook PC.
This may be an advantage, as it's not going to connect to anything with a
weak signal that could drop out with movement.

I set up a standard SIP extension for it in asterisk via freepbx.

Some of the phone's SIP settings are less than obvious, at least to me (i.e.
where to put the Asterisk box's IP), but I found an excellent guide here:
http://newlc.com/Using-SIP-with-Nokia-Series60-and.html

After adjusting the settings in line with that, it works perfectly.
I've also set to be permanently registered so it's available for incoming
calls while in range.

I have left the default for outgoing calls to be the mobile network. 
To make a call via the Asterisk PBX, you need to enter the number then press
the 'options' key, select 'Call'  go to 'Internet Call'.

Voice quality is excellent and I've not had any problems with it so far.

Robert Jenkins.

Is this  'Call'  go to 'Internet Call' usable when you select a callee
using the phone's directory ?

Yes it is. However, this also depends on how you set up your dial  
plan and how you store phone numbers in your directory.


I have set up my Asterisk dial plan to understand and work with the  
universal phone number notation of +country codearea  
codenumber, which is understood by the mobile network as well. I  
store all my phone numbers that way, be they local, long distance or  
international long distance from where I am. This means I can select  
any phone number from my phone book and dial out via the mobile  
network or my Asterisk server, it just works.
