Hi, I am currently building a 1.4.4 Asterisk box for a client and they are interested in GSM functionality. Does anyone have any experience with a GSM card, preferably Quad Span (4 GSM modules or higher) for use in the UK. I have seen the Junghanns* version but I am not keen on the limitation of having to use a BriStuffed version of Asterisk. Do Digium make one ? as I am unable to find

Hi Just moved offices in the UK and moved our Asterisk box from old one to new one. Using idefisk softphones, Junghanns quadbri card for ISDN 2e interfaces. At both offices we had one standard number and a DDI range, routed with Asterisk. We'd set up the configuration so each idefisk set its own caller ID which then got sent by the extensions.conf script. Worked fine at old place but in

Has anyone got a sensible zaptel.conf and zapata.conf for 2 TDM400P's working with UK set-up. They're set-up with 7 analogue phones and 1 PSTN port. Currently zaptel.conf has fxoks=1-7 fxsks=8 loadzone=uk defaultzone=uk It's really zapata.conf that would be useful. Currently using the zaptel/asterisk that comes with Ubuntu (latest) which needed a bit of tweaking (1.2.16), but could

I don't really know the name of what I want to look for but maybe someone could tell me if it would be available. I have a number of old analogue cell phones laying about here and I was thinking it would be useful if I could set up a short range base station for them that would cover maybe an acre or so. What I would like to be able to do is use it to connect into Asterisk and this way

A client used to use BT isdn30 and ported the numbers to telewest several years ago. Now, the client moved to adept telecom. I *think* adept resells BT products. We got new numbers from adept (bt?) and the old pbx on the telewest lines forwards the calls to the new numbers. On the adept line I got a digium card in an opteron supermicro server. ztcfg gives me over 99.99 pretty much all the time.

Hey everyone, I have a more of an opinion question then a technical question. The asterisk server I am setting up is going to host 3 different businesses. Each business is in the same building, and on the same network. My question is regarding calls coming in and going out. We are a small ISP and have a lot of numbers that are forwarded to our phone system. The other companies have about 3

Has any one found any issues (bug?) with ver 1.2.5 as CallerID generated on an outgoing FXS port (to the handset) fails when UK tones are used, with a message 'Didn't finish Caller-ID spill. Cancelling.' Any tips on getting this running ? Looked at Mantis, but only known bugs seem to relate to XP100 cards - not the TDM card. Thanks

Has anyone got a working zaptel.conf and zapata.conf for a Digium Wildcard TE110P T1/E1 Card. It's connected to a BT ISDN PRI (EuroISDN) with 24 channels. Inbound works fine, but outbound isn't setting CLI (it seems the line supports 6 digit CLI). Inbound CLI works fine. In the dial-plan using Set(CALLERID(num)=123456) then Dial(Zap/g1/01234567||frT) Where 123456 is in the range of BT

Hi I have previously had good success on smaller installations with TDM400P cards. I now have a UK customer looking for 8-10+ lines and it seems like a PRI would be most economical + reliable? Has anyone here used PRI interfaces in the UK and can confirm that it works well (using Trixbox for preference?). I have had some niggling issues with the TDM400P cards which puts me off adding lots

We are maxed out on our legacy PBX, and the question is the process of migrating to a new * system from the legacy. We current have 36 FXO lines coming into our site, and the usage on these lines indicates we can spare a few of them to launch the * server, and then move additional lines over as the * server/network/cable plant is built out and traffic moves to *. Eventually, we will want 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

Morning Asterikians, I've just got my nice shiny quadBRI card, and it seems to be working very well - except for one little issue - CallerID. The card is currently connected to an ISDN2e line in P2P mode, and an S0 adapter on our existing alcatel PBX. The S0 connection recieves callerID and displays it correctly - the 2e line doesn't, and BT have said that CLID was enabled on the

I've been trying to use a set-up whereby I have several TA's connected to an Asterisk server (1.2.4) and they act like they're in a hunt-group i.e. try the first, if busy jump to the next etc. in my extensions.conf I had something like [inbound-trunk] exten => 441234123456,1,Dial(SIP/s1a,20,r) exten => 441234123456,102,Dial(SIP/s2a,20,r) exten =>

So made my first forray into 1.4 and DAHDI and hit a problem. (Not convinced this is a DAHDI issue though...) Testing an analogue line and asterisk sees the caller ID being passed, but then fails to detect ringing. A plain old analogue phone plugged in rings just fine. Console output: == Starting post polarity CID detection on channel 4 -- Starting simple switch on

Hi, Does anyone know where I can get a telephone card that will fit into the PCI slot on my PC and work with the UK telephone system (BT) ? I would really like the retailer to be based in the UK if at all possible ? Also, is there any way to set up asterisk so that only certain phones can make external calls, but all phones can receive incoming calls if they are routed to that phones by some

Hi everyone, I want to get multiple DDI's and hunting across those DDI's in case one of the lines is busy using analog phone lines. The system is for a large house so I want 3 x PSTN lines. 3 x DDI's and the ability for those DDI's to be presented across all three PSTN lines. BT say you can't have more than one DDI number associated with a PSTN line and that you can't

Hi, got a Sangoma A200 with a bunch of extension cards and having real problems getting it to deal with a normal single BT line Symptoms are that incoming calls are fine. Outgoing calls ring the far end, BUT asterisk never sees that the call is answered (ie no message in the logs files saying so), as a result the remove end can hear the PBX side talking, but there is no audio back from the

Any recommendations for a VoIP provider in the UK? I have a few guys in a field office in the UK with SIP phones and a VPN tunnel back to a working Asterisk setup in the US. The Asterisk setup has an IAX trunk with TelaSIP/VoipXpress with local DiD's for US offices, so they can call vendors, customers etc in the US at local rates. I'd like to get the same thing for the UK, so that UK
