Let me add another variable into the mix...what about the Linksys SPA-962? Good, bad or otherwise? The 32 button sidecar seems like a deal at $80 street price.

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?

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?

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 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

I need to add a few phones to an existing installation. They have a dozen IP430 at the moment. Does anyone feel that there are advantages to the IP330? Cost is not the major consideration as long as they're in the same range.

Which flavor of G.722 has been implemented in Asterisk? And starting with what release version? Thanks, Michael -- Michael Graves mgraves<at>mstvp.com http://blog.mgraves.org o713-861-4005 c713-201-1262 sip:mjgraves at pixelpower.onsip.com skype mjgraves 54245 at fwd.pulver.com

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

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? Michael -- Michael Graves mgraves@pixelpower.com Sr. Product Specialist www.pixelpower.com Pixel Power Inc. mgraves@mstvp.com o713-861-4005

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

This Friday's edition of the weekly VoIP Users Conference call is all about wideband audio (aka HD Voice) and conferencing. The guest for this call is David Frankel, CEO of ZipDX a commercial service that specializes in wideband conferencing. We expect an interesting call touching on many aspects of VoIP going beyond the traditional phone service, conference bridges, technical standards,

On this weeks VUC call we will collectively be our own guests. That is, we'd like to know what was the big issue that impacted YOU in 2010? All opinions welcome. Here are a few things to get you thinking in advance: - Apple's Antenna-gate - Asterisk 1.8 Launches - Amazon EC2 as a DOS platform - Cisco launched UMI video conference device - More HDVoice capable phones - Skype Outage - VoIP

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.

There simply aren't that many local Asterisk Users Groups. This is one of the reasons that the VoIP Users Conference (http://www.VoIPUsersConference.org) has been picking up members. Using the Talkshoe conference bridge is certainly accessible, and the price is right (free!) I listened in on the streams from 25C3 over the Christmas break, and fout it really enjoyable. It occurs to me that
