similar to: Asterisk call forwarding / remote dial-in/out?

Alright, I am basically cheap, and I have a cellular plan which allows for free incoming calls (Nextel). I was wondering if there was any way to do sort of a dialback trick in the extensions.conf. I call into the system from my cell phone (maybe via DISA), I dial an internal extension, and dial a phone number. Then * sends to my cellphone the number dialed thus giving me a in call on the cell. Or

Hi All, I've got an * PBX up with couple of stations and now I'd like to integrate my Vonage service for outgoing PSTN calls. Is this possible if I have an account with them that uses their hardware box (ATA186) or do I need a 'softphone' account? thanks...

Hi, These days I run into something quite odd. I have an A@H that was modified to meet our requirements. We have a completely funtional DISA which we use pretty much all the time. I works flawlessly with incomming SIP calls from several providers, IAX calls from FWD and with ZAP. Recently we came out with a situation where it doesn't work... with a

I am able to get this script to dial, but I am unable to talk or hear anything. The script asks for the number to call and the the caller id to display (if user is not at their normal extension). Once submitted, the external extension receives a call, once answered the call is then placed to the dentition number. The script works as the call is place, but I cannot hear or say anything. Any one

Hi, Is it possible with asterisk to deliver a dialtone to a software phone, such as kphone? I'm able to dial, but the silence seems to confuse my users :) thanks, lane

I am wondering if it is possible for an extension that is served by a zaptel device to revert to dial tone once a call disconnects. For instance, if I make a call to another extension, talk with them, and THEY hang up, can I then be presented with a new dial tone rather than a congestion tone? Further, can an extension be set up so that, once the call goes back to dial tone, if the user does NOT

Anyone know of a good dial plan example for call in / call out? I want to be able to call my Asterisk server, auth, and then call out any number. Michael

Yo, Inspired by the example in the tips & tricks-section of "http://www.junghanns.net/asterisk/", I built a more elaborate call divert-feature. This one validates if the extension a call-forward is to be set to is actually valid for the current context and additionally saves this context into the DB and always uses it to originate the divert from, as you can't expect the

Hi Guys, i am using two PBX's i can call from pbx1 a cellphone tied to pbx2 that way: 1) use a phone in PBX1 2) call extension in PBX2 3) extensions in PBX2 ring to a cellphone (as this specific ext is tied to a cellphone) my questions now is : am i gonna be able to dial from an IPphone registered within PBX1 to a cellphone by using the Trunk (Zap or dahdi) of PBX2? anybody know

Hi; I've been using Asterisk for a few months now, and I have run into an interesting issue that I thought someone else in the community may have run into: I have an Asterisk install set up to receive helpdesk calls, route them to several IAX extensions and an extension which is simply a forwarded call over the POTS to a cellphone, so that if no one is logged into their IAX extensions for

Is it possible to get an internal dial tone when I call to my asterisk and enter password? I would like to call my line enter extension - password - and get internal dial tone. once I'm in I would like to dial based on what context permits, mostly long distance calls VOIP. I can not preset the extension to certain number as I don't know what number I will be dialing. -- #Joseph

Does anyone know where to find an example or able to provide an example of how to do the following: When asterisk answers a call... Ask for number to dial...then dial that number? I am basically dialing into the asterisk box and then wanting it to take the digits I enter and dial them on an outbound zap trunk... I basically am just not sure how to have asterisk accept the digits and then use

I doubt it's possible but I'll ask just in case there's a "legal" way to do that. I have an asterisk server setup at work. When someone call from a PSTN line and enter an extension it rings for a few seconds on the SIP phones of that extension and then if there's no answer it transfer the call to the cellphone of the person having this extension using hook

Hi list, This is not necessarily an asterisk issue, but a lot of you guys know way more then me, so I have a question: someone at my company sets his phone to forward calls to his cellphone, so someone calls our office, call is forwarded to his cell, and the callerID that shows up on his cell is of course our office number, because asterisk originates a new call to his cell and then bridges

Hi, I'd like to use DISA properly for my case - I'd like to handle it right, if user when in DISA doesn't dial any number - how does Asterisk return from DISA cmd ? I'd like to dial some default number if user doesn't dial anything or give him some message - but I don't know what gets executed after DISA if nothing is dialed .... I'm reading this on wiki, but

Hi, What i want to do - is to give ability for answered call to hear regular dial tone and be able to enter phone number - that i would dial later. I tried to look at WaitExten and PlayTones, but they seem to not work together - WaitExten doesn't interrupt going on PlayTones. Is there any way how i could do that - so that it looks really natural? It would be silly to create long-long-long

Hello list, I want to listen to voicemails on my * box from a phone that is not local to my pbx. I.e., from my cellphone or my PSTN work line etc. I'm aware that I can forward VM to email or use a web interface but that is not always practical. Other than doing an IVR type arrangement or a phone number dedicated to VM access is there a way to do this? On my old POTS line I used to be

Hello all, I want to setup Asterisk to forward a call if the dialed extension is busy. I do not want to wait on the line until the extension timeout expired. What I want is when I dial am extension currently Busy (Talking with someone), asterisk inmediately forwards my call to an extension I previosly defined. Someone could help me? Any clue will be appreciated. Regards from Spain. Ismael

Hello! I would like to do some tables for several variables and I would like to write a loop that does the table for each variable. I should also point out that my data set has several missing observations and sometimes the observations that are missing are not the same for all my variables. What I would like to do: table(StoreData$CompanyID, !is.na(StoreData$P2))
