Hi..I'm having trouble registering my asterisk box with FWD....It worked the other day. I also have an individual Grandstream phone which registers fine right now. I looked at the archives and saw the thing about the maximum retries limit to 5...but since my Grandstream phone seems to register on the first try, I'm thinking the problem lies elsewhere. Any ideas? sip show peers Name/username Host Mask Port Status fwd/291990 192.246.69.223 255.255.255.255 5060 Unmonitored 1001/1001 192.168.0.162 255.255.255.255 5060 OK (3 ms) 1000/1000 192.168.0.160 (D) 255.255.255.255 5060 OK (3 ms) sip show registry Host Username Refresh State 192.246.69.223:5060 291990 160 Request Sent NOTICE[1125350192]: File chan_sip.c, Line 2949 (sip_reg_timeout): Registration for '291990@192.246.69.223' timed out, trying again WARNING[1125350192]: File chan_sip.c, Line 462 (retrans_pkt): Maximum retries exceeded on call 1d456f644f8c11971a248a0250f82128@68.64.69.193 for seqno 103 (Request) Best wishes, -- Larry ------------------------------------- Lawrence Keyes Microdesign Consulting Inc.
