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 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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Ok, I have a 7960 that's plugged into my laptop. my home network is wireless so I don't have a switch anywhere to plug the phone into directly. I'm running siproxd on my OS X laptop and I can make outbound calls from the 7960 fine (I guess I don't have the phone configured to register inbound calls via SIP), but the phone isn't registering to the asterisk box via siproxd

I'm using the SJphone softphone, and I've got a nice little SIP-only setup, using (amongst others) stanaphone, VOIPtalk and FWD. But I'd like to be able to use my SJphones to dial directly to folks who provide a SIP URI, eg: 100@calluk.com, without either having to switch profiles in SJphone (to direct SIP) or having to define calluk.com (in this example) as a destination in

Hi List, After some research, it seems the only reasonable thing to do in order to get SIP phones behind NAT working reasonably well without fiddling with the DSL router is to have some kind of far end nat traversal mechanism. Is there any way to do this with open source tools? I've seen somewhere that far end nat traversal can be achieved with SER + nathelper does the job... has anybody

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,

Hi I am running firewall/router "brew" made of RedHat, Shorewall, Siproxd and GnuGK on a box that connects through PPPoE to Internet. I run Asterisk on another box behind of it and it seem to work fine for me. I am thinking of replacing the router box because hardware is getting flaky. I do not want to go through pain of assembling all this stuff together again. Does anybody know of

I have a Windows server 2003 Domain controller with a share called DC02Data. I can connect to this share successfully from several RedHat boxes, running samba 2.2.7. However, on several other RedHat machines, running samba 3.0.9 I cannot connect properly. In fact, I actually seem able to establish a mount successfully, but cannot then view the files, as shown below: [root@ixapp01 mnt]#
