I'm really trying to understand this. I have a Sipura 2000, brother MFC, and SpanDSP set up on asterisk. because asterisk softfax was not working well, i set up faxes to goto line2 on the sipura. this is working fine, i have only tested a few short faxes, but already my completion rate was 100% vs 5-10% that spandsp and asterisk gave me. here's the odd part. using the fax machine, I

I'm setting up a small office PBX on asterisk, and I've got to the point where I have to decide on what to do about FAX. The current situation is: PRI (E1) connected to an E100 and sip hard phones on their own network. I'd like to add some very limited fax capability to the system. Basically we need to send a couple of faxes a month, and receive about the same number. My options

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Does anyone have any recommendations on an IAX Desktop Telephone or ATA Device. I currently have 2 of the SIPURA-841's on my local network and now I am wanting to try an IAX Device at my remote office since I think that it would be easier to configure through various routers than a SIP Device. I just started to look at the Digium IAXy Single FXS

Hi. I'm really new. I was just wondering if it is possible at all to do a IP to IP call without a * server (or as a matter of fact, any other kind of server)? say I'm at mydomain.com's 10.0.0.1 and I want to call my buddy at hisdomain.com's 192.168.0.3. Is this sort of things possible? Or must we all both be registered with the same server to do that? Can this not be done

I need a cheap simple adaptor for analog phones to use with Asterisk. It should be some kind of "configure and forget" type of device, to use at the office, or just throw it in a road warrior's bag and use it while travelling, to call back to the "mothership". I can't decide between iaxy and sipura. Can you guys help? Which one would you use? (and why?) I feel that iaxy

I have a couple of devices that need an analog modem to communicate outside of our Asterisk system. Most FXS gateways don't seem to support this... I have a stack of Sipura 2002's that are, AFAIK, worthless for this purpose. I've heard that Digium's IAXy FXS will work with modems, but I can't find any reference to that in their documentation. There is also the

Hello, I am very new to asterisk and voip in general and so far have managed to get the FXO card and a few sip phones working fine. My question is where does the Sipura SPA 2000 come in the picture? Can it be used as an extension (i.e FXS) ? Or is it to be used as a line (i.e FXO)? Or it can be used as both? My understanding is that its just like another ATA186. Is that true? I guess what I

Hi, methinks that in the good 3 months since i ordered an IAXy, things have changed so much that now almost anybody out there with a VoIP hardweare website offers complete phones for less money than the IAXy, with support for both IAX2 and SIP in many cases, and fully configurable via its own keypad. What would you recommend as a rugged, small, and easy to configure/use self-contained unit that

Hi, hoping that experienced hands will quickly show me the right way: after a fruitless web search i am turning to this list with my rather elementary question: is there any other way to communicate with the IAXy besides using special utility software that needs to be compiled under UNIX? Here is the story: about two months ago, after some not very satisfactory attempts at using SIP (my phone

I'm rolling out an installation with snom 360s in the near future. Simple SOHO configuration, 3 FXOs hanging off a TDM400B, 4 snom 360s, a snom 200, some variant of IAX softphone, and an IAXy or Sipura 2002. I have the 360's set up to subscribe and notify for the line use lights, which works like a charm for interoffice calling (between the 360's, anyway. The IAXy, 200 and,

I haven't seen much activity on the list concerning Digium's IAXy standalone FXS device. Are they worth $100 ? Do they integrate well with * as an extension's FXS ?

Fry's Electronics has a new Linksys 2 line ATA box for sale for $59.99 retail. They have a version with a router for $89.99. We picked the non-router version up and it seems to be a rebadged Sipura SPA-2000. The box has a Vonage service package inside as well, but it does work with other services. The box also has a "User Guide" meant for end-users that is very well written [no

I've heard comments about the instability of the IAXy (loosing IP, locking up, etc) . I want to deploy some, in a remote site. The comments on the instability suggest that the simplest approach is to power-cycle them when you have problems. The IAXy would only be in use from 3PM to 8 PM. My potential simple solution is to have a timed power brick (like what you would use for a block heater)

Ok, ok, I know there has been plenty of discussion on asterisk and fax - from this I understand: 1) First and foremost, use g.711 ulaw 2) Packet loss, etc...makes faxing over the internet unreliable My need is for a fax to come in on a X100P and be forwarded to a fax machine on the local lan. I don't currently have any fxs as I'm using all sip phones at this point. I see the

Hi! I'm really hope you can help me solve a little mystery, the mystery is probably just my misunderstanding ! sorry... I've got an iaxy talking to my * box which connects to two providers. I'm running the stable release of the pbx. The only thing is that when dialling from the iaxy the ringing tone isn't heard while calling someone - you just hear silence then, they either

Or: "An IAXy by any other name is still an IAXy" http://nextalarm.com/abn.jsp These folks are selling alarm supervision for us phone-line impaired folks. What's scary about this is that we probably need to install a fire/smoke detector with the IAXy ;-) IAXy users on this list -- who of you would trust their home/business security to an IAXy? Is there a silent majority who loves

I have a lot of experience, all of it pretty good, with various Sipura products, Grandstreams, Zultys, IAXy, and numerous SIP/IAX soft phones connecting into Asterisk as clients. Good sound quality, great reliability. I've tried two of the units named in the subject line, and frankly I'm frustrated. Calls usually start out OK, but within a brief period the sound goes totally to

First of all, I'm not knocking Sipura/Linksys. I have heard very good things about their products. I'm just wondering if they are the only quality shop on the market. I know about the zoom 5801 where you can't dial out the FXO from SIP, only from the FXS port. And I have heard similar about the HT-488 also. I want to know if anyone else makes ATAs where all of the features work

I'm new to asterisk and already a fan. Please forgive me if my questions are covered by some FAQ and thanks in advance for any pointers anyone can give me. The basic problem that I'm having is that sometimes outgoing calls result in a busy signal when the outgoing line is free. I'm thinking that the channel is timing out or something but haven't figured out how to debug or gather
