Re: [asterisk-users] Bad Echo between SIP calls
First of all, Alex, sorry for not seeing your reply. Nearly two weeks ago now :( Honestly, with canreinvite=yes, I'm not sure what is meant by the signalling still travels through asterisk... I would ASSUME that includes out-of-band dtmf as well. Sorry! Moj Alex Crow wrote: Moj, Does this mean that even out-of-band DTMF still gets sent SIP-phone--SIP-phone without Asterisk hearing them?

RE: [asterisk-users] Bad Echo between SIP calls
The echo cancellation card is for SIP-Zap calls only, no echo cancellation is done in Asterisk for SIP only calls. SIP to SIP, media is just passed through the server untouched (using media flow through, which is the option in sip.conf of canreinvite=no) if you are not handling any translation, even when handling translation between SIP calls there shouldn't be any echo cancellation done in Asterisk for SIP only calls. The place to look at would be the remote SIP devices which is typically what is adding the echo, this is usually a gain issue of some sort depending on which handsets you are using.

Re: [asterisk-users] Bad Echo between SIP calls
Once upon a time I used to have a lot of SIP-SIP calls issues, which not always but sometimes included echo problems. There were no zap devices on the server. Googling and struggling to fix it, I found out that it was because of timing issues and ztdummy was not working properly. It had to do something with the kernel and USB modules and something needed to be fixed in BIOS and zaptel settings somewhere (not in zapata or zaptel confs) so that it can have a properly working timing source. I don't remember the details now but I remember I managed to fix it by building a different kernel version on that server after installaing some other version of zaptel, disabling USB modules on the motherboard, fixing something in zaptel Makefile, disabling unused modules in /etc/sysconfig/zaptel. I don't remember what else I did. but echo and other problems disappeared after whatever I did. It was about 2 years ago and I remember how frustrating it was. Anyways, I guess once you upgraded your hardware, something changed in zaptel settings somewhere which is now effecting the SIP-SIP calls and resulting in echo. Do you have the backup of old setup without this card, which you can install and check what exactly the settings were before. Also I recommend going with Sangoma. I hear a lot of bad stories about digium cards imcompatibility with certain motherboards and conflicts with USB modules on the motherboard, and conflicts with IRQs. Thats why When I went for PRI, I used Sangoma. I've used their A101c and A101d cards, and there have never been any issues. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

RE: [asterisk-users] Bad Echo between SIP calls
Best way to do this is not touch the sip.cfg, ever. Leave it as included in each release and include your overrides in a different file. Then reference your files like this in your MAC.cfg file, your file will override the sip.cfg defaults. CONFIG_FILES=phone_user.cfg,server.cfg,sip.cfg In server.cfg, if you wanted to change the server, for example: ?xml version=1.0 standalone=yes? sip voIpProt local voIpProt.local.port=/ server voIpProt.server.1.address=asterisk.yourdomain.com /voIpProt /sip From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of C F Sent: Saturday, June 09, 2007 22:54 To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Bad Echo between SIP calls It doesn't matter if it's supported, they are all, however I have seen some echo problems after firmware upgrades, the only way to fix it was to either copy the differences or overwrite my old config files with the new ones that came with the firmware and then modify as needed for my setup.
