[Asterisk-Users] DTMF via PSTN to * to IAX to * challanges.
Ok I have an * server finally setup and acepting calls from freshtel and I am VERY impressed at how well the Freshtel.net service works but thats another subject :) I have it all setup so that I can Dial my DID number on freshtel and that gets set to my * via IAX. At the moment I have the demo configured so that I can test it all and make sure it is all working. The problem is that I can't use the phones Keypad to dial anything. If I use linphone or x-lite softphones I can DTMF on my * server. I have my * server setup as http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk%20settings%20FireFly which is what is required to get it this far. Thanks to Adam Hart on the list. I have my * server answering and playing the demo setup but I can't select an extn or anything that requires DTMF from the phone. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this would be and were I would look to solve it? I would like to be able to have it so that people can select an Extn to be connected to or other things. Thanks David
I'm in the middle of getting g729 to work on my server and running into odd stuff. The issue revolves around what appears to be a much talked about (but not seeming to be much solved) issue of selecting which codec gets used at a given time. I have two g729 licenses. I'd like to be able to get asterisk to use g729 (via x-pro) only when I want to, reason being that if I'm in a high bandwidth environment I'd rather have the higher quality of ulaw, but when I'm in a low bandwidth environment I'd like to select g729. There doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason to which codec gets chosen, and it seems to vary depending on whether the call is outgoing or incoming. And furthermore, turning off a codec in x-pro doesn't seem to do anything. For example, if I have: [general] disallow=all allow=g729 allow=ulaw allow=alaw allow=gsm allow=ilbc and then dial out on x-pro, G729 is selected. Then I turn off G729 and turn on g711u (I make g711u the only black codec on the x-pro display), then make a call, the call is still made using G729. Further more, with the same settings if I call from a zap channel to the x-pro sip extension, the codec chosen is g711u, even though I might only have g729 enabled on x-pro, and even though g729 is the first one on the list above. Anyone have any suggestions, or can point me to something to read? regards, Paul
