Hello! I would like to get connected with a VoIP provider for home. At some point, I'm sure I will be connecting to it via an Asterisk box, but for now, I will be using whatever hardware they provide. What recomendations do you in the Asterisk community have for a reliable VoIP service that will hopefully interoperate with Asterisk? A company that is actually willing to work with an

Hello! I am in the middle of having a vanity toll-free DID set up. It's been 13 days now (9 business days). This is the first time I'm doing this, and I'm not sure of the process. There has been a very weird progression of changes on my number, from fast-busy, to a message saying that I'm calling from a phone with restrictions (no matter *what* line I call from), to a

Hello! We are open to the possibility of changing our business telephone number shortly. This will most likely be necessary due to a physical move, changing providers and a few other reasons. However, we woud like this to be the *last* time we need to do this. Ever. No matter what. Is that possible? On the Internet, you get this power with domain names. We "own" our domain

It does not look like Nufone is still in business, judging from the content on their site, which is very little. There is not even a configuration document to download, to connect to their network. The rates file is only for US/Canada calling. No international rates on this rates.csv file. I have signed up with a $5.00 account with them way back in November 2004. After signup, I havent received

Hello! Now that I finally have my TDM board working, I want to move forward with using PBX functions. However, it seems cumbersome to use standard POTS telephones with Asterisk. I know that there are many of you installing even large systems based on channel banks and analog telephones. What phones are you using? How do you simulate phone system features on a phone that doesn't have

Hello! I wanted to make sure that, in addition to my complaints, I make it very clear: Digium's support is excellent. The jury is still out on the usefulness of the TDM products. However, Digium has worked very hard to make sure that this issue is resolved. I actually got an e-mail from someone at Digium actually asking what they could do to make me happy! She even gave me

Hello: . I'm having troubles registering on nufone's IAX service . I'm really new to Asterisk Nufone provide me some config examples ... I can dialout but I can't register my * Box, eg. whe I do "iax show registry" I got only a "Request Sent" and later I have a "Timeout" My box is on a Public IP and no firewall. I'm using *0.5 on a

Hello! Several of my customers would like to add a backup to their Internet connection. ISDN is a good solution: decently fast for a dial-up-type connection, yet still faily affordable. While I was at it, I decided to look at a couple of more creative telephone service options to possibly improve their service or lower costs at the same time. These customers range from having just a

I have an opportunity to pick up a couple of NetFinity 5500's 4 way Xeon 550's w/ 2 gig RAM for very little $$$ I have seen this: http://www.mail-archive.com/asterisk-dev@lists.digium.com/msg00719.html In it, there is a passing remark to the Digium cards having problems with NetFinity's. Can anyone here comment on whether this is still an issue with * 1.0? It'd be a bummer if

I've been having 'gappy' audio problems with nufone for about a week now but I think I've nailed it down. Setup: office* - iax2 - colo* - iax2 - nufone office* and colo* are identical physical hardware (Xeon 2.8, dual ethernet, solely used for Asterisk) -- they are joined together through their second ethernet ports over a dedicated 2meg SDSL link. One hop between office* and

Hello! I'm having an echo problem with a TDM card. The TDM card is being fed by a channel bank just 12 or so feet away. When you put an analog handset on the line, both the RX and TX volume seem to be just fine. However, when I use the TDM card, I have to have an rxgain of 13.5, and even then, the audio is relatively quiet. I'm also getting echo on these lines, so I have turned

hi .. I have finally managed to get Chan_H323 & G729 working flawlessly, thanks to some help from Jerry McNamara. For those out there who are stuck with the same problem the procedure is : 1. install on RedHat 8.0 and nothing else (RH9 doesn't work!) 2. Install asterisk, zaptel etc. the normal way 3. Compile Pwlib & oH323 with versions taken from nufone's site

Hi, I wish to know if GNUGk can work with * running as a gateway with the Digium FXO card. Kindly share your experiences in case there are some issues which one must know before going in for such a setup. Also, I've been reading about the DialTone detection capability by the hardware in different countries. What are the issues with it? Thanks & Regards, Deepak ----- Original Message

Hello all, I am a relative asterisk noob so please bear with me if my questions are obvious. What I'm trying to do is get our analog PBX (A Merlin Legend) connected to VoIP. From all my googling and reading voip-info.org (and this list) it seems very possible. I just wanted to describe my setup and see if I'm going in the right direction. What I'd like to do is set up an asterisk box

Hello! Attached to the bottom of this e-mail is an edited version of an e-mail I originally wrote to Digium tech support regarding Ouch and Power alarm errors I have been receiving on my TDM400. It contains a great deal of detail regarding my setup. In the end, I have found that one of the 5 phones I'm trying to make work with Asterisk is contributing to the generation of these errors.

I've followed the instructions at http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Ldapsam_Editposix which concerns how to setup idmap correctly with Samba > 3.0.25. I have a trusted domain which has been successfully established. However, no SID entries populate beneath ou=idmap and any logon to the trusted domain will result in: netr_LogonSamLogon: user SANDBOX\Administrator has user sid

Hi, I'm specifically have a problem with idmap entries not being created in my LDAP backend for trusted domain logons - Local accounts appear to be fine. I have installed the Sernet enterprise packages from: http://ftp.sernet.de/pub/samba/experimental/rhel/5/i386/ I'm preparing the server as follows: 1. smbpasswd -w '<password>' 2. net rpc trustdom establish SANDBOX

Hi all, I'm running Samba 3.0.28 on CentOS 5.1 as a PDC. I'm having problems with winbind taking a long to initialize or reconnect to the domain.

I have been looking around for VoIP providers but have not found a good listing. Is there no "yellow pages" for VoIP providers? Google mostly returns services like Vonage, Packet8, NuFone, ect. None seam to be very reseller friendly and none offer LNP or local DID's for my area. Anyone know of a list (even a partial one) Jeromie Reeves
