Asterisk probably won't support EFR anytime soon; it is patent encumbered and not particularly suited for LAN or WLAN use. GSM networks are circuit switched and use 13Kb/s slots (i.e. GSM codec is 13Kb/s codec). 3G should just be data, so there's a wider choice of codecs.

[asterisk-users] Mobile phone codecs ...
Not strictly asterisk related, however... Here's an odd one for you.. I got a Nokia E90 and setup it's SIP client which runs via Wi-Fi (anyone know if I can make it work via GPRS/3G?) Anyway, in a fit of idleness, I thought I'd see what codecs it supports, as I couldn't find it in the manual... And it supports: ilbc g729 ulaw/alaw No GSM! How odd is that, given that it's a GSM mobile phone... Anyway, my quest for the ultimate one handset solution is getting closer. If Wi-Fi weren't so rubbish and my house not made of Dartmoor Granite it might have half a chance of working outside the room with the access point, however ... Anyone tried the Plantronics Voyager 510 bluetooth headsets which regsiters to both a mobile phone and their own base unit (which presumably has a USB sound device) as in: https://www.ukheadsets.co.uk/thc-plantronics-voyager-510-usb-dongle-rn-422-action-show_detail-show_products_mode-cat_click I'm not a fan of soft-phones, and not sure I want to have a borg implant on when I'm not driving, but ... Oh well... Back to the grind!

You can pair it to the computer directly and use it with any soft phone. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

If Wi-Fi weren't so rubbish and my house not made of Dartmoor Granite it might have half a chance of working outside the room with the access point, however ... That is one of the two points I like at the American style wood and wallpaper houses (the other being that construction is cheap and easy, in comparison). Living in a concrete house is not all the best thing as well though. My Pirelli dual-mode phone loses WLAN link just outside my flat door in the hall way, one concrete wall and about five meters from the Access Point. What luck they only used drywall inside the appartment. Anyone tried the Plantronics Voyager 510 bluetooth headsets which regsiters to both a mobile phone and their own base unit (which presumably has a USB sound device) I had a Plantronics device here that connected to a phone-line-tap base station or to my mobile via bluetooth. I did not buy it though because it only worked with my Sony T610 (stone-age old, about 2003), not with my O2 xda. I sold one plantronics 510 to a customer who uses it with his Nokia Esomething, and really likes it. AFAIK the USB device that comes with it is a bluetooth dongle, not a virtual audio device, but that might be different between versions of that device, and my customer definitely does not use it. I noticed with my plantronics device back then that you needed to re-pair it (whohoo, never noticed that similarity repair to re-pair) to whatever device you want to use it with, and that sucked because it took half a minute and some interaction with the mobile or base station. as in: https://www.ukheadsets.co.uk/thc-plantronics-voyager-510-usb-dongle-rn-422-action-show_detail-show_products_mode-cat_click I'm not a fan of soft-phones, and not sure I want to have a borg implant on when I'm not driving, but ... resistance is futile :-# Best regards, Anselm ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
