asterisk users - Apr 2005 - Has anyone used Libretel DIDs with Asterisk?

Hello, all.

Google searches reveal that a couple of users have
used Libretel port-of-call service via FWD using
Asterisk. I don't have a FWD account. I don't have a
SIP phone (no SIP setup at all, in fact).

I just purchased a DID in Brazil from Libretel and
discovered that they assume that I either have a SIP
phone or a VOIP number through BroadVoice. My provider
is actually VoicepulseConnect in California. My server
here is an Asterisk box connecting to a Voicepulse DID
using IAX.

HELP. :( I was assuming everyone supports IAX. I guess
I should have made sure first, huh?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Maya

Just set up a FWD account, (they're free), enable the IAX account
option, and you are away.  I have it set up and seems to be working
fine, not that it gets much use. Or just use the sip part of asterisk.

FWD is availabe via iax as well as sip. Easiest solution would be to
sign up for a FWD acc and enable iax. You could even use sip plenty of
examples between the list and voip-info.org that should get you going.
