similar to: Connecting a Grandstream Handytone 486 to Asterisk

I'm considering a situation where I buy about twenty ATA devices. I've played with the Linksys / Cisco PAP2T, and got that working fine with some inbound and outbound faxing. The web GUI was okay. I'm seeing prices around $45 to $50 for this thing. It comes with two FXS ports, but I only need one FXS. I've seen the Grandstream Handytone 286 online. It looks promising as an

I am trying to get the handytone 286 to make a very simple call to * and having problems. It registers with * just fine, but when I place a call (to echo test, for example), the RTP stream seems to have problems opening. Here is there error I get in *: WARNING[98311]: File chan_sip.c, Line 464 (retrans_pkt): Maximum retries exceeded on call 20d1c411-e210-5f3d-3f88-19035c8fcb26@192.168.2.6 for

can someone who has a grandstream handytone 488 working with making outgoing calls through the fxo port please post the parts of their config that deal with this port? i cant quite seem to get it to make outgoing calls despite having tried several completely different ways of making that happen. i have been told that asterisk@home has this built in to just a button hit, but i dont want to

Hi, Just received recently released Grandstream handytone 286 ATA for testing. I can call ATA from any other extensions and conversations seems to be of quite good quality. However placing calls from ATA is not possible at all to any extensions. After dialing there no indications of any kind from ATA at all. It just "hangs in there". ATA is behind NAT, registers to an * with public IP

I have an analog Fax machine which I wish to connect to the network and the Asterisk server. It will connect through a GS Handytone 286 converter and then into the LAN. Is there any information out there on what I need to write in *sip.conf* and/or *extensions.conf* to make sure the fax works as a fax? Channel 8 on my T1 is a reserved, dedicated line for the fax number. Do I need to

Hi ; Have two handytone 486 and want to use them as digium TDM400 fxo-fxs card...

Does anyone know if the HandyTone 486 has the option to turn the two ethernet ports into either a switch/hub, or does it have to do NAT ? Thank you, Steve Maroney

Hi I have a analog phone connected to my Gateway Handytone and registered to Asterisk 1.4 I have configured my HandyTone 488 (in the section FXS Port) for make and receive calls, however I can not transfer a call when it come via PSTN. But, when a call come from via IP I can transfer it. [phoneanalog] type=friend secret=XXXXXXX context=local nat=no qualify=yes host=dynamic dtmfmode=rfc2833

Hi Has anyone opened up a grandstream phone or handytone ATA to find out what is inside? What is the CPU? How much RAM? Cheers Rob

Hello, Has anyone gotten a Grandstream BT100 to work with Level 3's 3Tone? I've been able to get my extension to interface with it, but there is no sound and the call on the GS side terminates prematurely. Here is the relavent portion of the SIP.CONF [4007] ; Budgetone BT100 type=friend insecure=yes context=test-budget username=4007 fromuser=4007 callerid=4007 host=dynamic nat=yes

Like many others on this list, I had been experiencing periodic lockups with my Grandstream products (Handytone 286 ATA & BudgeTone 101). The lockups consisted of seemingly dead devices, no dialtone or response, until I power cycled via software or hardware. The workaround had been to reboot the device every 30 minutes with a cron job. I contacted Grandstream and although they didn't

I have used the handytone 488 from grandstream in the past.... However I need to be able to send a number to a unit like the 488 and have it dial out. Is there a unit like this available? Basically a 488 unit that can place a call out. Jerry

Hi, I am using the Grandstream HandyTone 486 as a SIP Adapter with a regular phone. Asterisk configuration is listed below. When I attempt to place a H.323 call, I receive the following errors: - Executing Dial("SIP/2000-3029", "OH323/##########@xxx.xxx.xxx.xx:1720|20") in new stack Aug 13 09:13:03 WARNING[20497]: channel.c:1806 ast_request: No translator path exists

There seems to be a problem related to the Grandstream HandyTone-286. When a call is placed through the adapter, the call can be transferred. However, when a call is received through the adapter, the call cannot be transferred. The problem does not exist with a BudgeTone-101 (1.0.4.23) using the same Asterisk configuration and Dial() settings (Ttm). I tried all of the firmware on their BETA

Peter - 40 phones and only 3 PSTN trunks?. I would recommend at least 2 BRIs for this. If you have ISDN you can also get DDI to the extensions.I would strongly recommend abandoning the analogue PSTN lines and using ISDN. The setup pain you will go through will be significantly less, combined with better audio, more features (like DDI numbers!) and much more robust connections. You should look

Hi everybody! I'm from Argentina, so you'll have to sorry me for my English. I have a Linux box with asterisk and want to buy an ATA. Fist, I thought about the Grandstream HandyTone but I read some reviews which says that it has a lot of echo. Some people recommended me Sipura 2000 but I don't know what to do. Now I just to make some tests at home and see what happens and if it works

To provide a reliable fax solution for users connected to a Asterisk 1.6.2.6 server i have tested a few T.38 capable ATA's: - Patton M-ATA - Grandstream HandyTone 486 - Fritz!Box 7170 I have tried Asterisk 1.6.2.6 compiled with SpanDSP-0.0.6pre17 and also Asterisk 1.6.2.6 with Fax for Asterisk installed. These Asterisk servers are connected to a Cisco PGW 2200 + AS5400XM. Sending fax

Hi, I am quite new to asterisk so I am not sure what is needed to figure out this problem. If more information is needed and not provided I will gladly provide it. I have a very basic asterisk setup. 1 x100p card and a grandstream handytone 286. I can make calls fine to most phone numbers from the handytone device the trouble seems to come when I dial this number 591-1079. It puts me through to

Hi All, I have a GSM box, which needs to connect to a analogue phone line. I've plugged the GSM box to a Grandstream ATA (386). This ATA has extension number 600. Now what I want to accomplish is the following: - If a mobile-number is chosen by a user, asterisk needs to call the ATA (600), wait for a few seconds, and then send the mobile-phonenumber. Or, if it's possible, define the
