Hi there I am using an IAX2 softphone built from the IaxClient library dialing into Meetme conferences. It works fine most of the time, but sometimes calls are being dropped and this error is given: Chan_iax2.c:1480 attempt_transmit: Max retries exceeded to host 146.18.3.5 on IAX2/bob@146.18.3.5:4569/3 (type = 2, subclass = 1024, ts=655380, seqno=177) This error is pretty erratic. It mostly happens the first time you try to dial, but also seems to sometimes be happening in the middle of a conversation. Any ideas what the problem could be?

What happens when you ping the host? -- Cheers, Matt Riddell _______________________________________________ http://www.sineapps.com/news.php (Daily Asterisk News - html) http://freevoip.gedameurope.com (Free Asterisk Voip Community) http://www.sineapps.com/rssfeed.php (Daily Asterisk News - rss)
Hi Thanks for the reply. The host can still be pinged. In fact, it is usually only 1 user which is dropped from the session while other users are in the session. I don't think it is a problem with routing to the host.
