I'm looking to purchase and deploy a bunch of hardphones for agent use. The phones will have to register with Asterisk and/or SER, depending on where the phones go. They need only one line, G729 codec, and no super fancy features. Preferrably something that is easy to provision. I would think the BudgeTone would be good, but then I've read so many people complaining about them, and some

I searched and read all the relevant posts, but I still don't have a solution to my problem.. I've got a small queue for tech support calls using AddQueueMember. The agents are using IP300's from polycom. In my example, only one agent is logged int. When a call comes into the queue, asterisk sends the call to the one agent logged in. The agent answers and is talking to the

We have two Linksys 942 phones which sound great when they call each other directly through Asterisk. But when they both dial in to a meetme conference room, the sound is very jittery. Other phones like Polycom 501 and Snom 360 sound fine when using meetme. Both Linksys phones are set to use the default g711u (ulaw) codecs. Adjusting the jitter buffer and jitter level settings to various values

Hi all, I have to buy some IP phones. Previously I have used Grandstream GXP-2000, Budgetone 101 and Linksys SPA-841. I always had problems with sound quality with all of them, and I was always of the opinion that it were the phones which were not good. In GXP-2000 deployment of about 50 phones, some work good, some have sound problems like words missing, clicking sounds when talking, and some

Hi, I have been testing asterisk 1.4 with a view to deploying it in my organisation and I am experiencing jittery voice prompts from the voice mail system. I get this jitter even if I try a simple "hello world" dial plan. I have tried the release of 1.4 and also 1.4 svn and both display this issue. I have also tried it on a dedicated linux box and on a linux install running under

I have the MusicOnHold feature working great when called from ATA-186 extensions. It's pretty cool. However, when I call from a BudgeTone-100 phone, no music is heard -- instead it continues the ringing feedback and acts like the call is unanswered. At the same time, I can call from (multiple) ATA-186 extensions and hear music as long as I like. How can I debug this? As far as I can tell,

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

I'm assuming asterisk does not have a SIP jitter buffer in place? Any ideas on how to help with this going over a data T1 where VoIP is shared with regular traffic? Problem is when people are downloading the voice is jittery, even lossy. Matt

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

Hello guys, I ask you to share your experience with your BudgeTone 100.... I have my asterisk @ work and I've bought a GrandStream BudgeTone (SIP phone) and I usually use X-Lite I have plugged my BudgeTone into my home network because I want to be called even at home. I succeed to register my X-Lite with Asterisk from home but I can't do that with my BudgeTone. (I don't know

Does anyone have X-Lite build 1059 working fully with Asterisk? The GSM Codec works very well now but we have problems when using G711 in that when I setup a ping between the two sites and then watch the latency, it steadily increases and starts at about 150ms and goes up to 2500ms within about 20 seconds. I have not investigated fully but I guess that its sending ever increasing size packets.

Just for the record and to possibly help with others who get BudgeTone phones. My asterisk box is behind NAT, and I use Vonage, NuFone, and iconnecthere for my "POTS backhaul." On the front end I have an ATA186, a Digium TDM20, and now a BudgeTone 102. The BudgeTone definitely has issues wrt the RTP stream and NATting, although unfortunately I haven't yet been able to dig

I'm using 1 BudgeTone 100 IP Phone and a Sipura 2000 for all my old analog phones. The analog phones with the Sipura seem to work great. Voice quality is fine on both ends on the Sipura. I'm using the Teliax service and I use the Ulaw codec for all phones. However, I'm struggling with the BudgeTone 100. On my end, I find there is lot's of voice cut outs. I'm told my

Hi All, I'm using Asterisk for my PBX, I have a remote office that is connected by a VPN link. I am using Openswan on my side and a Linksys box on the remote side. I have a Polycom IP300 on the remote side configured with a static IP address. When I call the phone on the remote side, it rings and establishes the call fine. The problem I am having is that the remote side can hear the call

Hi, I'm considering giving the Grandstream BudgeTone-102 phones a try. I've been using Cisco 7960's to date, but the low cost of the Grandstream phones are hard to ignore. I have two questions: 1) Does the message waiting indicator on the BudgeTone's work with Asterisk? 2) The one line 12-digit LDC concerns me a bit. Is the LCD able to display both the CID number and name on

Is it possible that cheap phones (Budgetone) cause echo's? I had a digium X100p and i managed to get rid of all the echo problems i was having. Recently i got a Voicetronix Openswitch12, and getting terrible noises when i use an IP phone (budgetone) to call analog phones or PSTN. I have tried all the possible things (rxgain, txgain, echocancel, i even changed the codec to g711) Is it

I have a couple of Budgetones that I am playing with trying to get them to work with * from a remote network over the Internet (yes NAT joy!). My * server is in my DMZ and I have 5060 and my RTP range forwarded (UDP) to my public address (through a Cisco PIX). Internally, I can setup my budgetone, it registers and works great. I then have a Linksys router connected to another Internet

Hi, Just playing with a couple of Budgetone 102 phones and they are pretty good for the price. The only problem i'm having at the moment is when I get a voicemail on the Asterisk box the LCD flashes. Dialing *98 goes to the VoiceMail Manager, and asks for mailbox, I enter 201, then asks for password, enter my voicemail password set in the Extensions -> webadmin, then hit the

Everytime that I make a call to a Budgetone 101 phone. I always see the following: -- Executing Dial("SIP/1001-bac5", "SIP/1000|20|tT") in new stack -- Called 1000 -- Got SIP response 302 "Moved Temporarily" back from 172.22.5.4 -- SIP/1000-465e is busy I can use X-Lite all the time to make a call without a problem, but any of the budgetone 101 phones
