Hello Does anyone have any experience with configuring BT (British Telecom) ISDN2e lines to work with Patton SmartNodes - and then Asterisk? I have a Patton SmartNode 4638, which is now connected to 3 x ISDN2e lines - and in turn connected to our internal LAN. I'm having huge issues configuring the SmartNode to successfully "see" the ISDN channels - and to be honest, I'm

Hi, I'm looking for an interface card for termination of Euro-ISDN2 (BRI) lines. That is ISDN lines from the telco into my Asterisk box. Any recommendations, good/bad expiriences ? At present I'm looking at cards from BeroNet and Junghanns. Cheers, John Faroese Telecom

Hi :) My employer is looking to move a call centre to a new office, and has been increasingly frustrated with their legacy PBX (call-logging licensing and hardware upgrade costs). So I've stepped forth as the Open Source Pedant and suggested Asterisk so we can do all our own CallerID / call logging / analyses, and make use of IP Phones / teleworking, etc. The problem begins in that I only

Hi! This weekend we had a problem with our Asterisk Box which ran flawlessly for nearly 4 weeks. The Asterisk server sits between the PSTN and a Siemens PBX and bridges 2 BRI lines. No calls, not incoming, not outgoing. The admin rebooted the Dell Box and then everything worked fine again. Now, I'm analyzing log files to find the cause. During the Asterisk outage the logfiles only show

Hi, I have done my best and tired of searching the net about the problem. If anybody could help would be a great favour. Description of Problem ------------------------ I am trying to install two Netpci cards(Traverse Technology Netjet ISDN-s) on Trixbox 2 and aim is to use in Asterisk as dailin and dialout. I compliled the driver as directed in the manufacture manual. After installation dmesg

Hi all, I've been playing about with Asterisk for years now on and off, just SIP to SIP calls, using FWD and suchlike. I'm moving house at the beginning of September and have decided to build an Asterisk based system for my home office. I'm in the UK and wonder if anyone can give me advice on lines and hardware to use. Had planned to go with an ISDN2e line coupled with a BT

Hi there, quick question...do digium make any BRI cards (ISDN2) or even better a quad port BRI, maybe im going blind, but I cant see any on their website Cheers Gary

Hello For customers who need a small IP PBX to handle up to four ISDN lines (in France, so I guess that means EuroISDN) instead of a PC + Asterisk and an ISDN gateway box, has someone already played with the Atcom IP-4B? www.atcom.cn/IP-BRIM.html Any feedback appreciated.

Hi, Does anyone have a suggestion how I can analyze the concurrent usage of ISDN channels? A client complains about their clients sometimes getting a busy tone when trying to call them. I suspect they just need to add an additional ISDN2 line but I need some conclusive information that they are indeed maxing out their ISDN channels. Thanks, Patrick

If there are still analog devices in addition to VoIP, I'd say always, but Asterisk has a rudimentary echo canceller already on board. The Telcos use echo cancellers themselves, but it cannot hurt to

I'm just getting started, and getting quite a strange result. I've been able to mount my (login hal) Linux home directory as E: on my w95 system, but when I try to "smbmount //isdn2/AMDAHL-WORK /mnt/amdahlwork", where /mnt/amdahlwork is an empty directory on Linux, isdn2 is defined in /etc/hosts as 192,168.1.2, the address the W95 box uses, and AMDAHL-WORK is the name under

Hi All, Here at my office we have two basic ISDN Access with two phone lines each. We would like to install an Asterisk PBX. The question is: How can I connect the ISDN lines to Asterisk? Is it possible to connect to a DIGIUM Wildcard TE410P card? Or this E1 card is only for PRI access? Any other suggested and tested hardware for a production box? Let me know, -Z --

O.K. thanks a lot, Felix and Peer Oliver.

Hello This is a fun one for the list... Twice now, the Police have contacted us to say they have had a silent call then hangup from our landline number to the 999 service. As a matter of course, they follow up these calls in case someone is in distress. Nobody here was in distress - well, no more than normal! The Police aren't hugely happy when we tell them it must be a mistake. Thing

Greetings to one and all on this fine list; We have the current system: Meridian 1 Option 11 +-------------------+ | | ISDN/30 (DASS/2) ===> |NTAK79BB (2MB Pri) | | |<-->4x16 port Digital / 1x16 port Analogue ISDN/30 (EUROIDSN) ===> |NTBK50AA (2MB Pri)

Hi, I like to forward an incoming call on an ISDN line to my mobile phone. Since ISDN offers two channels, I thought that this should work, but Asterisk tells me, that there is no channel available. There is no one else using this line, so guess I made a mistake in the configuration or it might not work for another reason. Here's the CLI output , the capi.conf and extensions.conf. 83086921 is

I'm getting a strange error on one of the two controllers on an AVM C2 card under chan_capi-cm-0.6.3. I have two ISDN controllers defined, both in the same group, both connections are UK ISDN2e Point to Point: On the third outbound call (both of the first two calls are handled by the second controller "ISDN2",) I get this error : chan_capi.c conf_error 0x2001 PLCI=0x301

I am going to try and use a passive AVM fritz BRI card for my * setup.. Here is the thing.. I need to order my BRI from BT.. The service that looks to be the one to use is what they call ISDN 2e becasue this has the option to setup hunt groups across multiple ISDN2e lines so I could add another line later to get 4 channels.. According to the BT website in order to use the hunt grouping across

I am trying to send 'codes' over an isdn2 link - such as *#24# - to activate call forwarding. But it doesn't work. I have tried sending it as a straight dial, and also as a DTMF string...but no luck... I spoke to a telco tech and he said I had to send a facility code....huh? Anyone with any ideas on this one?
