similar to: How to allow softphone to dial thru with full SIP URI?

Now this is really frustrating. Everything was working fine, and now it isn't ... I don't think I've changed anything that would affect this, but I guess you never can be too sure. My setup is as follows: SIP softphone (SJphone) connected to Asterisk running my Linux NAT firewall box. This is all on the internal network. Asterisk then dialing out through various means - SIP to

I'm having problems in dialing numbers over SIP that include characters from the UK international phone number conventions. I have my contacts in Outlook, with the numbers represented as: +<countrycode> (<area code>) <numberpart> <numberpart> eg: +44 (20) 7834 1234 or: +1 (801) 555 1234 I'm using the SJphone softphone, doing my testing through the Stanaphone

Has anyone out there used the PipeMedia/PipeCall PSTN gateway? Anything good/bad to say about it? I'm considering using them for a new customer. They seem to have good rates, good provisioning tools and (better still) give commission on usage to dealers. -- David Gurr Congruity Ltd. Fax: 0871 661 1756 Hemel Hempstead UK

I'm building a phone-in demo system to use for introducing Asterisk to prospective clients. One of the things I'm wary of is their likely preconceptions that VoIP systems will have poor audio quality. As a result, I'd like to ensure that the voice prompts I'm using have the best possible audio quality. Is it possible to use sound files at higher than 8kHz sampling? My callers

I'm looking for recommendations for UK-based VoIP-PSTN gateways. They should ideally offer: - IAX connection - Multiple simultaneous calls on a single account - Lower call rates than BT Business - Auto-top up or invoicing in arrears I can find several that offer one of these facilities, but none that offer all. Thanks! -- David Gurr Congruity Ltd. Hemel Hempstead, UK

What FXO interface methods are folks using successfully in the UK? I'm looking for good, known-to-work solutions for commercial use for two PSTN trunks on an Asterisk box. Here's the options I have, as I see it: i) Two Digium X100Ps. Pro - cheap (c. ?120), CE approved. Con - UK line impedance mismatch, with resulting echo problems, plus needs two PCI slots. ii) Digium TDM400P with two

I have no analog line interfaces on my asterisk system, but I do have two UK 0870 numbers routed to two separate VoIP accounts (one with FWD, one with gossiptel). Asterisk is configured to register with these accounts. I get voice calls through just fine this way. I thought I could get one of these 0870 numbers to route through to rxfax, thus allowing folks to fax me directly. I've set up

Can someone confirm what I should expect the correct behaviour to be on incoming calls if I have multiple SIP phones configured for the same username? I'd expect all the phones registered under the username that that extension is associated with to ring, and the first one that answers gets it. What I get, is just the first phone that registered gets a ring. The second one doesn't ring at

I'm curious as to folks experiences in selling asterisk-based solutions. In sales-speak, what are the common "compelling reasons to buy"? I can think of the following potential ones, but I'm keen to find out what seems to work in practise: - Customer wants to cut cost of calls, implements * and signs up to a VoIP/PSTN gateway - Customer wants a new PBX but doesn't want to

I have the need for a slightly odd * configuration for testing purposes. I have a working * setup with SIP softphones, VoIP trunks and a single X100P clone for PSTN access. The PSTN line I'm using for testing is also in use by other folks. For incoming calls, I'd like to set is up so that * functions as a voicemail backstop on this line. This much is working fine. For outgoing, I'd

I'm interested to hear how folks are handling NAT SIP routing issues "in the wild" for commercial use. Are you using a commerical SIP-aware NAT router solution? If so, what? Are you using a software SIP-proxy like SER or siproxd? If so, which? Do you set everything to "canreinvite=no" in sip.conf? Any comments about real-world implementations would be welcome. Thanks

Looking for folks experiences with ISDN BRI cards in the UK ... what's good and what's bad and any gotchas. Thx -- David Gurr Congruity Ltd. Hemel Hempstead UK

Hello, I am running error rate analysis. It is my results below. When I compare aov1 and aov2, X square = 4.05, p = 0.044, which indicates that adding the factor "Congruity" improved the fitting of model. However, the following Z value is less than 1 and p value for Z is 1, which means that "Congruity" is not significant at all. Therefore, these two parts are not consistent,

I am trying to get Asterisks to connect to our StanaPhone so that I can use it to route my outgoing PSTN calls to. We have a free account and if I can get this working are willing to pay for an actual minutes with them. Here is what I have in my sip.conf: [stanaphone] type=friend secret=pAsSwOrD ; skewed for this message. username=3475341914 host=sip.stanaphone.com

Sorry if this comes thru twice, I had the wrong account selected to send the first time... Callers to the number get ringing, I get stuff in my asterisk console, and it calls my softphone and ata, but answering either gets silence, and the caller gets the ringing stop, if they wait ages they get the stanaphone voicemail. I have had the account for ages, and it never has worked, other sip

For some reason I now seem unable to control which codec is chosen. The problem happens with outgoing calls to Stanaphone. Even if I chose disallow=all and allow=ulaw as the only codecs it connects with GSM. Has anyone else got problems with these settings? Any suggestions? As I recalled it, such a setup would not establish a call if the ulaw-codec was not offered by the provider. Stanaphone has

Dear all expert, (i posted this question one time, but i couldn't reach the answer -so allow me to post here) 1)I download asterisk realse version 1.2 beta1. After that i compile it successfully and run it with: asterisk -vvvc 2)I follow the instruction in http://www.asteriskguru.com/tutorials/asterisk_voip_ipphone.html in sip.conf: i add two account: [ivan] type=friend username=ivan

Hi there, I tried to get a few "Optipoint 400 SIP" working with *, but it refused to work properly. In my testing-network i have two Sjphones (they are working really fine) and three optipoints. I?m able to dial the number of a Sjphone on all of the optipoints. The call is signalled at the Sjphone with the right number of the optipoint and an connection can be established. But when I

Hi, I am pretty new to all of this but was able to set up an asterisk server and have been able to succesfully connect to asterisk with x-lite as sip client. I have also connected asterisk to FWD (using iax2) and to voipjet (also using iax2). Now I am trying to connect asterisk to Stanaphone. It has to register as a SIP client but I am not being succesful at all. My asterisk server sits behind a
