[Asterisk-Users] No audio on incoming IAX calls
This seems to be an incredibly strange one. I have a couple of problems (well more than that but a couple that relate to Asterisk). First is that when somebody calls me via IAX neither end can hear any audio. If however I dial from here, there is no problem. This is strange because a) there don't appear to be any errors, b) the call flows right through the dialplan through to dialing my phone (connected to an FXS module on TDM400P), the phone rings but when I answer, there is just silence. Ok and now for the strange one. I can't get any IAX clients to work with my server. My iax.conf is right (I have stripped it right back) and I have tried it in multiple configurations. Now for the hint: it would appear that when I try to register a client (DIAX for example - although I have tried all) with 192.168.0.xx (the internal network on interface eth0), there is no response whatsoever. Even with IAX debug on. If however I register with nz.sineapps.com (which terminates to my machine on interface hsb0) then the registration appears to work. Ah a note of clarification on the above point, I have tried both binding to 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 as well as no bind address. One other possible hint: I can't ping anybody except for my gateway. I've searched all over the net (google at least) as well as the wiki and #asterisk without success. I am thinking that my solution may be to format the drive and reinstall (I have removed rather a few packages related to X because I initially was running KDE on the box). Also...there should be no problem with my hostname returning linux.sineapps.com should there? Thanks for reading this far, I hope someone can help!

I'd suggest you first get the networking configuration of your box properly set up, stuff like making sure the ethernet cables are properly connected, your network card works properly etc the basic stuff. then, without * started, see if you can ping the rest of the IAX/SIP clients/phones on the network. after that bit's settled then you should progress to troubleshooting the * -> IAX client connection. it's not a good idea to much about with the * config files when you can't even ping anyone else!

I was previously running the web server on the same box and it was fine...except once the traffic started getting high (hence the move to offsite hosting with LiveVOIP LLC). Sorry I meant that I can't ping out past the gateway. There is no problem ping internal addresses (i.e. the ones that IAX clients are calling from).> after that bit's settled then you should progress to troubleshooting > the * -> IAX client connection. > > it's not a good idea to much about with the * config files when you > can't even ping anyone else!I have a reasonable knowledge of the config files and have many Asterisk boxes set up at remote locations around New Zealand. The reason I can't ping is because I set my firewall to disallow incoming ICMP.
