asterisk users - Oct 2003 - My Grandstream works, but my X-Lite doesn't: no sound after 5sec

X-Lite build 1079 consistently chokes no matter which codec I use -
after five seconds I suddenly have no sound coming in and possibly no 
sound going out too. Putting the line I'm on on hold and then switching 
back to it gives me another five seconds of sound, then it dies, etc.

The Grandstream 101 I'm using is a piece of junk but I don't have the
same
problem with it.

Not sure whether the issue is X-Lite or the Asterisk server. Has anyone 
else had this problem?

What don't you like about the grandstream ? (I am not looking to flame you, 
but was considering buying and if there are problems would rather find out 
beforehand)

If you are not using a headset then X-Lite cuts the sound after a few 
seconds.. Its probably the echo cancelation kicking in.. Connect a 
headset and all should be fine..

Later.

Michael,

That would work for me too. If the volume can be reduced (maybe to zero or
almost zero) then my request for the ability to disable it is not needed.

Since the volume of the speaker and handset can be controlled maybe the GS
folks can include a patch in the next release of the firmware to also
handle the ringer.  They monitor this list so maybe will jump in with some
feedback to us.
