New to asterisk so please be gentle. I'm guessing I'm among a number of recent additions to the list after the article in Linux Mag. I gotta say I'm *very* intersted in the project and will be doing lots of reading shortly. A couble quick questions first... How suitable is Asterisk for use as an IVR providing callers with textual data out of a database? Can it be combined easily

I just implemented a system using a TE411P hardware echo cancellation card. Per Digium, I setup zaptel.conf, and zapata.conf the same way as I always have. To my surprise calls out to the PSTN had a terrible echo. 1 - 2 second delay, and quite clear. The echo was so bad that I had to remove the hardware echo cancellation module from the card. We are only using the 1st span of this card right

Hi, Has anyone used polycom phone IP500/600's conference feature? I ran into some issues. Polycom is not behind NAT. Polycom calls pstn number A, (gets two way voice), presses conference, (A is put on hold), calls pstn number B, (gets two way voice), presses conference again, suppose to have all three parties in the call, polycom and B have two way voice, but polycom doesn't have two

We have been running Asterisk for about a month now and one of the things I miss the most is the ability to se who's online and available and who's not. Surely, there's the manager interface, but unless you'd want to install extra software on each client computer, this is not a good option. Then there's the presence / IM function in SIP. Since we're only using SIP

Hi, we've had a couple of Sounstation 4000's around for a couple of months working fine with our * box. Today, I tried for the first time to do a local 3-way conference with one of them, and could not find the "confrnc" soft key for doing that (as stated in the user manual). Spent 20 minutes without success, and ended up transferring the other parties to a meetme conference.

hi there I'm setting up asterisk@home and I'm using Polycom IP 500 phones. When I call a number that has a digital receptionist (i.e. "dial 1 or such and such, dial 2 for this and that...") the Polycom doesn't seem to send the extra digits. When I try it with X-Lite things appear to work fine, so I think the problem is with the Polycom configuration. Here's some

Hi List... I have an asterisk box with one TDM2400, it has 8 FXS's and 12 FXO's, and it also has the echo canceller... I'm running Asterisk 1.2.13 and Zaptel 1.2.12 with the Kernel 2.6.9-34.0.2.EL I'm using Polycom's 501 with the SIP 1.6.2.0041 The problem is when someone dials to or from the PSTN through the TDM2400, the voice quality is crappy...Instead of hearing:

Hi All, I am a remote office that is connected to my office via openvpn on UDP. Voip has always worked well (after discovering g729). Initially I used a softphone, then an analog set on a sipura 2000, then a polycom IP500 (I still LOVE this phone). At that point, I started noticing that the polycom doesn't ring a lot of the time. Since I was desperate for a phone, I didn't upgrade

I've been running the 8/1/2004 Head release up until a little over a week ago. I was forced to due to a card failure to upgrade to 1.2.16 without any advance preparation or testing (most of my connections are via satellite to all corners of the globe with high latency). Up until the upgrade I was running with very few issues. Since the upgrade I have been experiencing strange issues

Hello, We have updated the Wiki page for Polycom phones: http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Polycom+Phones We posted several configuration specs as well as a link to an admin guide for the phone. We also posted a link on there to two firmware versions for download. The official Asterisk-Polycom support website should be up and live sometime in January. If anyone has anything to add

I have sent a Polycom IP500 phone to an overseas remote user who has a Speedtouch adsl modem/router. The phone is connected to the 4 port router which performs NAT for the network. The phone rboots, find the server, downloads it's config and tried to register. Then it immediately becomes UNREACHABLE.

Hi, I am trying to form a matrix from a SQL query result. The SQL query result looks like this: equity_id date returns 1 20050619 0.12 2 20050619 0.03 1 20050620 -0.01 2 20050620 0.01 The target matrix looks like this: date 1 2

Hello - I have 8 polycom 501s all setup great using ulaw. We have put them through a pretty rigorous torture over the last 4 months, and they've performed famously. No dropped calls ever. We invested in some g729 licenses. changed my ipmid.cfg so that g729 is priority 1 and ulaw is priority 2. I added allow=g729 to my extension's sip.conf entry, where existed before disallow=all

Hi, I have lookedaround and don't see this anywhere. Is there a way to tell the ip500 to not make the aural MWI blips?

Hi, I've been trying to get MoH files to sound decent. I've got a hold of Royalty-free Classical music (a safe choice for most of my customers) and I`ve been trying to convert them to the normal telephony/Asterisk format using sox. Unfortunately, it sounds really bad. I don't expect concert hall quality of course, 8000KHz being what it is, but is there a better way to convert

Hello list, I was wondering if any of you guys have had any luck with polycom in remote offices, I'm facing a weird issue, polycom phones work fine in the main office, in remote office it says, Registration from '<sip:202@10.0.1.190>' failed for '70.59.21.112' - Wrong password the odd thing is Linksys phone works without any issue!! polycom wont register but its able to

I'm running into an issue w/ Buddy status on Polycom IP650 phones using buddy status (with SIP Hints) on Asterisk 1.4. Sometimes the status on the phones will "stick" in the busy status. I have noticed that I can call that extension & the status will reset (sometimes). Anyone else encountered this or anything similar. -Chris

I have a fresh 1.4.10.1 installation that appears to have a problem with g729 pass-through. I can see the gateway in question sending an INVITE using g729b. However, the Asterisk is only sending g711 in the INVITE to my Polycom phone. [gateway] disallow=all allow=g729 [phone] disallow=all allow=ulaw allow=alaw allow=g729 There's the codec configs for the gateway and the phone in question.

I've been trying to get the polycom 550 phones to show a idle display bitmap but have not been successful. Anybody have any experience with this? The manual gives instructions (http://www.polycom.com/common/documents/support/setup_maintenance/products/voice/soundpoint_ip_soundstation_ip_administrators_guide_v2_2.pdf) but they do not seam to work. So far i've done the following in my

Hi, I've been asked for a headset recommandation for Polycom SoundPoint IP phones. Since I believe they use a pretty standard headset jack (correct me if I am wrong) it's really a general recommandation on headset.
