Greetings list, I've noticed over the last couple of weeks that, unsurprisingly, nearly every new PC seems to be coming with Vista these days. I expect it'll only be a matter of time for all of us before clients start needing Vista-compatible softphones (if it's not already happened). So, what's the story with Vista compatibility amongst the softphones currently out there?

Greetings list, I remember a discussion many months ago which ISTR concluded that asterisk didn't play nicely at all in multi-homed setups (e.g. SIP packets not being sent out through the same interface they were received on, etc.). Is this still the case, or are there versions which have resolved the issue? Even if it's still the case, is this only a problem for SIP, or does it affect

Is there more than one version of the Cisco 7960? I see some items advertised as 7960 or 7960G, but searching on 7960 only brings up 7960G info, or ambiguous stuff. joe a.

Greetings list, Does anyone have any experiences they'd like to share deploying these phones in medium-size asterisk setups, e.g. 40+ users? I have a project coming up to deploy 100 phones over 2 offices and the client rather likes these phones. Are there any obvious pitfalls/configuration difficulties/quality issues etc. using these phones? If so, what alternatives would people suggest with

Greetings list, I need to set up a point to point SIP connection between two devices without either of them registering with a registrar/proxy/etc. at all. The devices I've tested so far all seem to insist on having a registration before they'll make or take calls. One of the devices needs to be an ATA with an FXO port (e.g. Sipura/Linksys SPA-3000/3102), the other device can be either

Hi, Is it possible to dial voicemail from a particular phone line and automatically enter the extension that is being dialed from, thereby only prompting for the password? I've been searching around to find if this is possible, but I haven't been able to find an example of this. I have a feeling it's more of a endpoint function, but I thought I'd ask if anyone has accomplished

Hi guys, Is it possible to allow remote peers to connect to your local DUNDi Asterisk box, even if you don't have them listed in the dundi.conf? Alex

I have a new asterisk installation (1.4.2) that is working fine with SIP. Now I'm trying to add 2 cisco ip phones (7960) running SCCP (latest chan_sccp). I have the phones booted, and the tftp directory all setup, etc. But the phones do not quite work right. When I lift the handset I only get a dial-tone 1 out of 5 or so times I try, though hitting the speaker button works. I can dial

Hi, I'm using zaptel-1.2.22.1 with asterisk-1.2.10 and following steps to make zaptel working...

Before I got down the path of converting a Cisco 7960 I have over to SIP I wanted to try and set it up using Skinny. The phone registers ok with Asterisk. When I call a SIP softphone extension on my network the call is made and I can answering it. However no voice is heard over the call. When I debug Skinny on the console after the call has connected I see the following messag: Recieved Alarm

Greetings list, I posted this to the -biz list a few days ago. In hindsight, I think it would have been more appropriate posted here, so apologies to those on both lists who've now seen this twice. I have had a request to provide 2x PRIs to a site in Lausanne, Switzerland, but my knowledge of the Swiss Telco market is non-existent. Are there any folks on the list who've experience in

Greetings list, Not exclusively asterisk-related, but I've noticed the CentPBX site has been offline the last few days. Anyone know the reasoning behind that, and more importantly, is anyone mirroring it? Thanks in advance. Regards, Chris -- C.M. Bagnall, Director, Minotaur I.T.

http://chan-sccp.berlios.de/ 20050713 ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/chan-sccp/chan_sccp-20050713.tar.bz2 I didn't have a spare 7960 to use this week, so maybe some line issue is still present. - fixed a memory leak on database updates (dnd, cfwd*) - fixed old memory leak on unload (now unload chan_sccp.so and load chan_sccp.so work. It does reload the config when asterisk is running) - socket

Hi All, Until now I've only used IAX2 to connect to ITSPs. I've been toying with a SIP connection to Gizmo Project, but not yet successfully. It brings to mind a question. At what point does it make sense to consider a SIP-aware firewall such as those from Ingate? I'd hate to move away from my m0n0wall, which is open source, easy to manage and has served me brilliantly for two

Greetings list, Wondering if some kind soul can help me with an issue with chan_sip segfaulting as soon as it loads... Basically, if sip.conf contains any peers with "host=dynamic" in them, asterisk won't start. Doing -vvvdddc yields the following: [chan_sip.so] => (Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)) == Parsing '/etc/asterisk/sip.conf': Found Segmentation fault As

ive got asterisk running with chan_sccp and three cisco phones (2 7910's and 1 7960). lots of bugs. when i press the speed dial button on either 7910, asterisk dies. also, if i dial from the 7910 to 7910, everything works fine. i can dial from or to the 7960 once, and then one of the 10's and the 60 die and try to reregister. if i take the 7960 out of the mix and remove its

Don't know if anyone's got experiences on this they'd be able to share... I'm trying to obtain numbers for Kenya/Nigeria, but I'm struggling to find a company selling them. There's one for Nigeria listed on didx.com, but $22/month seems a little steep. Has anyone had any luck getting DIDs for countries in Africa, and are there any companies out there selling them? Thanks

Greetings list, Does anyone have experience with SIP conference phones? I need to source a couple for a client, but I'm not really familiar with the market - i.e. what's available, what's decent quality, etc.. A cursory googling has led me to the Polycom Soundpoint IP4000 at around the ?450 mark - any thoughts on this? If anyone knows a good Polycom wholesaler in the UK, I'd be

Greetings list, What are people's experiences with WiFi SIP phones? When I last looked into them about 18 months ago, they were incredibly expensive, had very limited range and poor battery life. In the end, it worked out much more cost effective to simply use ATAs + DECT cordless phones where there was a requirement for portable devices. I assume things must have moved on somewhat since

I've been working my way through the softphones listed on voip-info over the last few weeks and I've not really found anything to fit the bill. Has anyone had more luck? The environment is a small call centre of 5 users. Operators often need to be able to transfer calls to other operators with different specialties, so the softphone needs to be easy to use and quick to transfer calls.
