You might try "callprogress=no" It sort of sounds like noise (or analog phones) on the pstn side are signaling the x100p to go off hook and possibly do other things. ------------------------> Happens quite often.

Try enabling busy detect and set it to a value between 4 and 6. If you set it too low you might start getting random call drops. I think this problem is due to some providers allowing only the called party to hang up. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-admin@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-admin@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Shahid Sent: Saturday, May 08, 2004 6:20 AM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: [Asterisk-Users] X100P keeping PSTN line Offhook Happens quite often.

Tom, Rich and Atif, Regarding your responses, 1. I have previously tried the "callprogrees=no". Doesnt solve the problem. 2. If "busydetect=yes", calls to PSTN get droped in the middle of the conversations. 3. Havent looked into the MOH thingy. This feature has caused me other problems. Thinking of turning it off altogether. Anyone has any ideas about alternatives ? Thanks for all your help guys.

[Asterisk-Users] Re: X100P keeping PSTN line Offhook
I see that your line signalling is set to kewlstart... Are you sure that your telco provides this? Also, I found that I was having similar problems when there were other devices on the line (like fax machines). The problem usually occurred when someone tried to make an outgoing call on the same line (but not from the * box), but it seemed to happen occasionally when nobody was on the line. --Ernest> -----Original Message----- > From: asterisk-users-admin@lists.digium.com > [mailto:asterisk-users-admin@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Shahid > Sent: Monday, May 10, 2004 8:35 AM > To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com > Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Re: X100P keeping PSTN line Offhook > > Tom, Rich and Atif, > Regarding your responses, > 1.

What did you set your busy count variable to when the calls started to drop? I had the same issue until I changed it to 6 from 4 and so far everything seems to be working fine. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-admin@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-admin@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Shahid Sent: Monday, May 10, 2004 7:35 PM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Re: X100P keeping PSTN line Offhook Tom, Rich and Atif, Regarding your responses, 1.
