Has anyone here ever tried using a wifi bridge to place a deskset in someplace where there was no LAN drop? If so what hardware did you use and was it succesful?

Hello, I bought a copy of this software in the hope of bridging Skype into my * box. It sort of works but the audio is all distorted and there's huge latency. Does someone have this working well with their * server? According to the wiki someone does, but I don't know who. I'm needing advise on what to fiddle with to get it working correctly. Thanks Michael -- Michael Graves

Does anyone on-list have any experience with this device? It's a 6 port FXO<>SIP gateway. Michael Graves -- Michael Graves mgraves@pixelpower.com Sr. Product Specialist www.pixelpower.com Pixel Power Inc. mgraves@mstvp.com o713-861-4005 o800-905-6412 c713-201-1262 fwd 54245

Does anyone have any experience using this DLink quad FXO <> SIP gateway with Asterisk? I'm still looking for an analog interface that I can live with, having tried X101p, SPA-3000 and TDM400...all with less than desirable results.

OK. Now I show my ignorance. What's the difference between a T-1 and a channelised T-1? I see that Covad's voip service (formerly GoBeam) requires a channelised T-1. Then I read recently on the list that many T-1s being installed are actually HDSL....which would be not a T-1 at all...right? Michael -- Michael Graves mgraves@pixelpower.com Sr. Product Specialist

Does anyone online have an opinion on these? I've used 500/510/6001/601 models before. Need to know if these apparently lesser models can be provisioned in the same way. Are end uers happy with them?

Hi All, The past day or so I've setup a new * server based upon the Xorcom Rapid ISO. It did as promised; wiped the base system, installed Debian OS, installed Asterisk with a dummy configuration. So far so good. If I could get the config from my existing * server migrated to the Xorcom box the I'd be ready to roll. Essentially, it would be the same as I have now on Fedora Core 1, but

Hi All, I'm using DISA on my * server to avoid overseas toll charges when making calls to Western Europe from my cell phone. I have DISA working with a DID from a VoicePulse Connect account. The outgoing call to Europe is also made via Voicepulse Connect. I see that the IAX media path is bridging the inbound call to the outbound call so that the media stream entirely bypasses my server once

I see that ABPTech are now offering this SIP Wifi phone. Does anyone have an experience with it? I've considered the Pulver/Zyxel wifi phone but would really rather have something that can handle WEP or WPA. I run an 802.11g wlan with 256 bit WPA encryption. This Hitachi phone looks very much like a cell phone, which could be ideal. Michael -- Michael Graves

How about it. Anyone use these guys? Their rates look ok. I'm looking for alternatives to VoicePulse Connect that provide DIDs in Houston TX.

Is there some concensus on where to set callerid when making outgoing calls via an ITSP over IAX? Is this best accomplished in IAX.CONF or EXTENSIONS.CONF? Also, tech support at one ITSP told me that the SetCIDName command doesn't do anything. Is this something that might be unique to their server? Or a general statement of fact? Thanks, Michael -- Michael Graves

Is anyone here able to make calls to FWD via IAX? I haven't beenable to for some while. I'd like to get to the bottom of the problem. There's been little response in the FWD support forum thus far. I can call my own number and it rings my server, but I cannot call any other number. It generates and error reporting "everyone is busy at this time." Michael -- Michael Graves

Hello All, I have a small * server in my home office with several IP phones. The system is not fully in service yet as I'm still hunting for a cost effective FXO adapter that I can rely upon for my two primary PSTNs. That said, I'd like to move it into service for another application...which brings up a question. I'd really like to stop making international calls from my cell phone

Hi All, I've read J.R. Richardson's paper "Create an Embedded Asterisk Server" which outlines making a Debian server that boots from a compressed disc image on a CF card. I'm really interested in this as I want my * server to be more like an appliance than a PC. However, the paper is only an outline and some of the processes of pruning the installation down to a minimum are

OK, I asked this about a week back and met with no repsonse at all. But perhaps its worth trying again. Does anyone on-list have * running BRI to their local telco? I'm considering this as an alternative to my TDM400p card. Michael -- Michael Graves mgraves@pixelpower.com Sr. Product Specialist www.pixelpower.com Pixel Power Inc.

Here's t link: http://www.informationweek.com/story/showArticle.jhtml;jsessionid=JUEFVG ENEA01YQSNDBCCKH0CJUMEKJVN?articleID=165702588 The bottom line is that they compare retail VOIP providers like Comcast Cable, Time-Warner Cable, AT&T, Vonage, Packet8 et al. Their methodology seems sound. Their conclusion is that retail VOIP services don't yet match the PSTN for reliability &

Hi All, A couple of weeks ago I noticed Askozia PBX, which is a new embedded Asterisk & OS distro at http://askozia.com/pbx. This caught my attention for two reasons; it uses v1.4 of Asterisk, and it uses the m0n0wall development framework to build on FreeBSD with a PHP based GUI. I've used m0n0wall for years, and FreeNAS also, which shares the same OS/GUI framework. I booted the latest

Hi All, I've been thinking about taking steps to make my * server more reliable. In particular I'd like to have it automatically start * after a power loss. Can anyone here provide some guidance as to how to accomplish this. Keep in mind that I have a TDM400p that needs a couple of modprobe commands before I can start * itself. I had a look at the wiki but it seems light on this topic.

Have the Sayson IP phon started to deliver yet? I'm thinking about two new phones for my office and considering the Sayson 480i and Zultys 4x4. Would also consider the Virbiage phone if it becomes available. I have Snom 200s and a Pingtel phone at the moment. Michael -- Michael Graves mgraves@pixelpower.com Sr. Product Specialist

I'd like to add a device to my Asterisk server to leverage my cellular account. Does anyone on-list have experience with hardware gateways vs using cah_bluetooth and an old cell phone?
