Dear all, I have an Asterisk box serving as gateway to a set of POTS phones that all share the same telephone number, and I register this box as gateway to a H.323 gatekeeper with the telephone number as the gateway prefix. I am wondering if there is a way to have Asterisk-wide (perhaps to be called 'universal') variables that can be used in all config files. As far as I know, now e.g.

Hi Folks, Since there isn't a grandstream forum AFAIK I guess someone here may be able to shed some light on this. Apologies if this is viewed as offtopic.. I think I may have killed the firmware on my Grandstream Budgetone 101. I found a source for the 1.0.5.30 firmware and made the files available over tftp.

Hey All, Thought I'd take a bash at trying to get Festival to work here on my lab system with the aim of using it to create our IVR menu prompts. I've spent most of the afternoon searching through the Wiki, the Festival website and Google and I've got a couple of questions. First one is that the 'Asterisk+festival+installation' page on the Wiki mentions the RedHat 9 RPMs

I am looking to replace all of the old "Bell" (POTS) phones in my home and office with IP phones.

I am setting up a small Asterisk system for use at home. I have one Budgetone 101, one Cisco 7960 and two Xten lite softphones. So far everything is working expect for an issue with the Budgetone. When a call is placed between the Budgetone and any other phone, the call is setup and sounds good. If I hang-up on the Budgetone, everything is ok. If I hang up on the other phone, the Budgetone

Has anyone had any luck with the DEV LITE KIT? I'm getting very erradic behavior. I'll start it up and it will answer maybe one or two calls then hang leaving my phone in an off hook state or giving a loud shrill tone. It keeps saying "Red Alarm".

After reading about these $75 SIP phones on this list, I purchased a couple for evaluation. They do work with asterisk - and are good value for money, but as somebody commented: they are not yet perfect.

Can anyone recommend a good cordless user-configurable SIP hardphone that is readily available in the states and doesn't cost $300? There seem to be a plethora of decent and affordable corded phones (like from Grandstream) but the search for a cordless unit seems elusive. I purchased a vtech 8100 online only to discover after receiving it that it is locked to vonage service. Thank you.

Hi all, I have just received the following e-mail from an Asterisk user: "I just made a call via BT to a mobile. Then an incoming call came in and Ann else answered it - it made my call go completely fuzzy and I could hear what the woman on the other line was saying to Ann but I couldn't hear my conversation! When Ann's call finished - mine went even fuzzier and all I could hear

I've got my asterisk server in the DMZ of my local LAN - I've used my Budgetone and GXP2000's from the Internet- on direct IP connections with no problems. However, I'm about to deploy about 5 phones (either budgetone or GXP2000's) all on a LAN behind a NAT- on a different network than the Asterisk server. Should I look into using STUN servers? Will this setup be a
