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?

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? Thanks, Michael -- Michael Graves mgraves at pixelpower.com Sr. Product Specialist www.pixelpower.com Pixel Power Inc.

Has anyone here ever had the occasion to setup a system that would dynamically alter it's codec preferences based on trafffic? That is, presuming that the system is on a limited bandwidth connection is would start to prefer a compressed codec as the call volume increased? Perhaps shifting from G.711 to G.729?

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

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

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?

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 survey those on-list who actually use wifi SIP handsets. What type of wifi access point do you use? Are you happy with it? I presently use some older Linksys WAP54G APs. I'd like to replace these but in doing so I'd like to be moving in a VOIP friendly direction. I've yet to find a handset that I'd buy in quantity, but my last round of access points lasted >4

I'm in process of transitioning a number of offices to a hosted virtual pbx from Junction Networks. It's a combination of OpenSER and Asterisk. They have a nice click-to-call extension for Firefox, but I need the equivalent for IE so that it can work with our CRM system. Junction told me that they have a bounty on offer for this if someone's interested in doing the work. Would the

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.

Does anyone on-list have direct experience with the new analog cards from Sangoma? I'm thinking about FXOs with echo cans. Need 2-4 ports but don't want to go through another TDM400 style experience.

Doing a little research before Friday's Voip Users Conference call with Dan Behringer. Are any of the newer Polycom wideband codecs implemented in v1.6? Specifically, G.722.1 or G.722.2?

Anyone here have experience with these devices? They would ppear to be an affordable alternative to multiple X100Ps. Michael -- Michael Graves mgraves@pixelpower.com Sr. Product Specialist www.pixelpower.com Pixel Power Inc. mgraves@mstvp.com "Kick at the darkness 'till it bleeds daylight" - Bruce

Hi All, So I've been exploring the use of G.722 encoded wideband audio recently. I have three different SIP devices that allow this: Eyebeam, IP650 and a Siemens S865IP. The Siemens and IP650 seems to work fine together. Calls pass between them in what the Polycom notes as "HD" mode and the audio quality is certainly very good. However, things are not so easy with Eyebeam and the

I'm looking for a wireless desktop VoIP phone. Does any exist?

Hi All, Is this working for any of you? We're supposed to be able to dial FWD accounts through IAXTel by dialing 170099+FWD number. I don't ever seem to be able to do this even though I can dial 800 numbers through IAXTel. Michael -- Michael Graves mgraves@pixelpower.com Sr. Product Specialist www.pixelpower.com Pixel Power Inc.

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
