asterisk users - Sep 2004 - Asterisk <-> WellGate 3502a : ulaw/alaw only?

Greetings,

I'm running latest * from CVS on FreeBSD 4.10 box. We've just bought 
several WellGate 3502A FXSes to play with till welltech guys fix the 
3504a's registration bug.

So far everything is working as expected, except the fact only ulaw and 
alaw codecs work with *. If I add allow=gsm or allow=g723.1 in FXS's 
ports entries in the sip.conf, no voice is heard from both sides after 
the call is established.

Am I missing something here? WellTech claims to support even g729, and I 
see those in the embedded website's codec priority page.

Is there something more to be done to enable g723.1/gsm codecs?

P.S. 3502A is also affected by the registration bug, if you connect a 
phone to TEL2 jack and call someone, everything goes by the TEL1's 
account/password...

regards,
Vahan Yerkanian

Hello!

Is it possible for somebody to email me the patch for the UK callerid (for 
the X100P cards). I know that the TDM100P patches are included but .. I 
still use the X100Ps

Many thanks

Vassilis

welltech still hasn't responded to my complaint to them regarding their SIP 
registration process. in the interim however, i've patched asterisk 1.0 to 
handle this wellgate special case. i'll be emailling the patch over to you 
in a separate email. i run asterisk (0.9.0 and 1.0) on freebsd 4.10 too.

i've seen the same. the wellgate's do not support the GSM codec and
stock
asterisk does not do g723.1. you'd need to only use ulaw or alaw for them. 
i've got this in my wellgate sip.conf entries:

disallow=all
allow=ulaw
allow=alaw
