I've tried to find other threads with this same topic, but haven't found any... Apologies if this already being discussed.... Running asterisk 1.4.13 (upgraded from 1.4.9) and zaptel 1.4.4. Having an issue with (I think) parked calls. We tend to park calls, but we're often not able to pick them back up, or the other party says they get dropped, etc. There doesn't seem to be a

Hi Folks, having an issue with outbound calls through a VOIP provider. Calls get sent out with the CallerID(number), but where does callerID(name) come from? Apparently not from provider, as we are seeing different (sometime missing) names on inbound calls, different than what we have configured. Apparently this comes from some telco database somewhere? Numbers were ported from a wired-telco.

Has anyone else encountered this? I have a fairly large installation (~50 phones, almost all Polycom 501's and a handful of 601's. We're running into a number of phones on which the outbound voice (Polycom phone user doesn't hear any problems, but the other end does) is breaking up occasionally -- enough to be noticeable and make you say "what?". In each case, rebooting

running asterisk 1.4.13... I've noticed with SOME email clients that the timestamp reported from voicemail is 5 hours off (difference of EST vs UTC). That is, a voicemail received at 15:17:59 EST is sent via email with a Date: header of "10:17:59 - 0500". An email sent through normal means (mail client) from the asterisk server reports the correct time, so it's definitely

Does anyone know how much space the appliance has for voicemail and/or logs? Doesn't have an embedded disk from what I can see, and only a 1G flash card? -- Barry D.

My company for various reasons has asked that I come up with a way to have previously parked calls be re-parked in the same parking slot. I have looked at setting up asterisk so that the receptionist chooses which slot to place a call, but I think there is an easier way. That is when I came up with the idea of "Sticky Park". Here is how it would work. A call would come in and

Hi folks. My client is wanting to use call forwarding configured on their phones (Linksys SPA942), with a PRI from their provider. When we configure call forwarding, we invariably get a "The number you have dialed is not in service" message from the providers. Examining the detailed dial plan debugging as well as the PRI debugging, the number is dialed correctly. The only difference

Hi Folks, Struggling with a new * installation with 2 Rhino R2T1 cards. For some reason, the system is locking up tight when you run ztcfg to configure the card(s). Configuration is asterisk 1.2.14, zaptel 1.2.12, and rhino's 1.05rxt1 drivers. The cards seem to load fine with a "modprobe rxt1", but once you run "ztcfg -vvv", the system will lock up within a few seconds, no

Hi List... Lets say I have been asked to do an Asterisk/Trixbox install for an environment where 2 companies 'live' in the same... building... Both companies have 2 incoming Analogue BT Lines and then have good old BT Phones plugged into them.. I have been asked to setup a VoIP system for one of the companies and the other company has showed an interest, There is one central Server

I am perplexed by this so I how someone can help me out. On one of my servers the users began complaining that if they picked up a parked call they could not use the # key to transfer the call. This is a particualarly annoying issue since everyone has been taught to use #700 to park calls. At first I thought it was a DTMF issue with the polycom phones, since rebooting seemed to fix the problem.

Hi Folks, Recent installation with a simple TDM11B (one FXO, one FXS) that I've set up (at home). I am receiving callerID fine from the telco, as it shows up in my call detail records, AND on 2 SIP phones. However, I'm not reliably receiving it (that is, very seldom does it come through) on the analog phones. Any ideas on where to check configurations, etc? I haven't encountered this

Is there a way to find out the no of parked calls in a parking lot by name (in a multiple parking lot environment) from within the dialplan (not CLI) other than writing a custom function (like VMCOUNT)? Thanks, Matt -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Here's how it's currently working: 1) Call comes in 2) Operator parks call (700) 3) Operator picks up call on another phone (701) 4) Operator tries to transfer to a different phone (we use #0) but the transfer doesn't work. We can transfer initial callers all we want and it works fine. Once a call is parked, however, we can no longer transfer the caller. Any ideas? Thanks, Jay

So, I can't figure out how to get the parkandannounce application to work the way I want it to... I have cisco 7960 IP phones using SIP, and this is what I have in my extensions.conf: exten => 700,1,ParkAndAnnounce(pbx-transfer:PARKED|90|SIP/${EXTEN:1}|internal,${EXTEN:1},1) exten => 700,2,Hangup and in my parking.conf: [general] parkext => 700 ; What ext.

Hi all, how can I catch the event generated when a parked call is hung up? In my dialplan, when arrives a call to a specific number, Asterisk parks the call and announces the parking slot to a number. But if the user hangs up the parked call, I don't know how to catch the event, from dialplan, that removes the call from the parking slot. I want to know if there is a method for do this.

Hi, I am having a very weird problem with call parking. I have defined call parking correctly, as it work well when parking calls and picking them up. The problem is what happens after the the 45 seconds have expired. The behavior wanted is that the person who put the call on "park" is called back after 45 seconds. What ACTUALLY happens is that the phone who got put on park
