Has anyone been able to configure Asterisk to work over 3G? I bought Nokia Cell Phones just for that purpose and they register fine over WiFi and 3G but the quality is just not good enough and sometimes the call just disconnects.

Think about it. The phone call is on the same airwaves but is prioritized. The data gets the lowest priority. Again, all my testing has left me using only g.729 when I really need to do VoIP over cellular, but it's never been perfect. -- Carlos Alvarez TelEvolve 602-889-3003 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
