I am having trouble with a Grandstream Budgetone 101. It's at firmware 1.0.5.10 and I'm running * 1.0.0. I have the phone getting a DHCP address and * expects it to register. When I reboot the phone it does register just fine. However, after a while * cannot contact the phone. I will call the phone and * will tell me: -- Called grandstream1 Oct 20 09:41:16 WARNING[98310]: chan_sip.c:681 retrans_pkt: Maximum retries exceeded on call 564c44bb0522db003006670a76c2ef9e@192.168.1.3 for seqno 102 (Critical Request) Looking in teh archives, it seems that that indicates that the registration is expired. I've got the phone set to 60m register intervals (and * acks that when the phone registers) but after the hour it doesn't re-register. I've also tried 15m and 2m register timeouts. I have Sip Registration and Unregister on Reboot both set to Yes on the phone. Register Expiration is 60. The phone is at 192.168.42.234 and * is as 192.168.1.3. Both internal but no NAT between them. And the initial registration works fine. I've searched through the mail list archives and tried all the suggestions I could find there, but the phone behaves the same: registration appears to be lost. Incidentally, I set the phone to a static IP (192.168.42.99) and also set * from host=dynamic to host=192.168.42.99 but * couldn't call the phone at all after that. (I did graceful restarts on * between the change). Can anyone see what I might be missing? I don't have the SIP UserID or Authenticate ID set to the phone's extension, but the SIP User ID is the same as the Authenticate ID which is the same as the context in *'s sip.conf. It doesn't seem that would have an effect, but I thought I'd mention it. Thanks! -- -M There are 10 kinds of people in this world: Those who can count in binary and those who cannot.
I also will get this message sometimes: -- Got SIP response 481 "no such call" back from 192.168.42.234 but I do have canreinvite=no in the appropriate section in sip.conf...

It sounds like in your test with the fixed IP, you left the registration option on the phone set to yes. With a fixed IP and host=IP address, I am pretty sure that you must turn off registration on the phone. It's useless anyway with fixed IP and just reduces reliability (as you have discovered the hard way). Asterisk periodically sends polling packets to the phone, so it will know when it is reachable and when it is not. And, the phone will still authenticate against the password, so this should not lower security at all. Stephen R. Besch
Michael & Stephen; I have been running GS BT101's for the past few months in a fixed IP arrangement and have not had a problem with the registration process. Budgetones seem very reliable. I have the phones configured to do registration and expire every minute. I have SIP user ID and Authenticate ID set on the phone to the same as the phone number defined in the sip.conf file of course. Also no Authenticate password defined. I plan to move to a DHCP environment sometime soon. Hopefully I will be able to get through that too.

GS is fine for that -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of David Ishmael Sent: Saturday, October 23, 2004 5:49 PM To: 'Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion' Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Re: cannot call Grandstream So in keeping with the topic, the GS phones work well with the Asterisk system? Should I get a GS phone or is there another phone that I should consider? Since this is for my home rather than a company, I just want something that will work with little fuss. ;) -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of steve szmidt Sent: Saturday, October 23, 2004 4:37 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Re: cannot call Grandstream On Friday 22 October 2004 02:05 pm, Neil Cherry wrote:> David Ishmael wrote: > > I think my Netgear router will try to lease the same DHCP address toa> > device based on MAC automatically each time the device queries foran> > address (but I'm not 100% sure about that, never really watched it).So> > the problem is with the address changing? > > I can't infer that from the 2 examples as it may be some other > problem with the DHCP implementation on the DHCP server.

It's true you can just plug in a host and have it get an ip nice and easily. But I prefer to know who's IP is on the wire with a minimum of fuss. I like to be able to notice that nnn is being involved far too often in that XYZ problem, or whatever. Plus it's one less service to maintain. Whenever I add a host I spend a little more time with configuring it but that's better than chasing leases as far as I'm concerned. Eases LAN maintenance a lot. True, as an ISP I would use DHCP. It's quite suitable there as I would have more limited resources. But on a LAN it's hard to run out of IP's. It's kind of how windows got popular, thanks to the apparent easier way of doing things, and how lazy we all seem to be. Anyway, this is on th edge of the topic so I'll stop here. -- Steve Szmidt "They that would give up essential liberty for temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."
