Hi all, I am new to asterisk. I was able, but not without pain to install it on a FreeBSD box. I set up a cisco ATA 186 and the SJlabs softphone to work with the PBX. Three remarks: * On the SJphone, i use the GSM and the G711 (ulaw and alaw) codec. In the h323.conf file i enabled those codec. Everything works great!!! * However, when i set my Cisco ATA to G711, i can't hear any sound unless I press at least two or three keys(any random keys). I am using the demo context of extension.conf file. Can that be due to a fast start problem? Anyone knows how to checkthe faststartcapabilities of an ATA 186? * Also when i set my ATA codec to g729 and in asterisk i allow=g729, i get a very low weird sound. What is that due to? I am guessing that i don't have the codec installed on the system. Is there an open source g729 codec available for FreeBSD? Any help will be very much appreciated, Thanks.

I?m not sure about the G711 codec on the ATA, but I know you need to purchase the g729 from digium. HYPERLINK "http://www.digium.com/index.php?menu=asterisk_g729"http://www.digium.co m/index.php?menu=asterisk_g729 pretty inexpensive at $10 each. That?s for ?concurrent? connections to the server.

Hello all,>* However, when i set my Cisco ATA to G711, i can't hear any sound unless I press at least two or three keys(any random keys). I am using the demo context of >extension.conf file. Can that be due to a fast start problem? Anyone knows how to checkthe faststartcapabilities of an ATA 186?Funny enough when i disabled the gsm, g729, g723 codec, it works fine (no need to press any key), with the alaw and the ulaw codec. I guess the ATA default to the alaw and the ulaw when it does not find the other codecs, However that is a lot of bandwidth i am wasting ... Before i licensed the g729 codec, is there a way i can "test" it?
