I don't want to start the "How many calls can Asterisk handle?" discussion or "How many angels can stand on the point of a pin?" discussion either. But can anyone contribute some practical knowledge of systems that take in channel bank T1s or DS3s from "far away", and process the calls? I am looking for real world, been there, done that, or "check the

I am wondering if it is possible for an extension that is served by a zaptel device to revert to dial tone once a call disconnects. For instance, if I make a call to another extension, talk with them, and THEY hang up, can I then be presented with a new dial tone rather than a congestion tone? Further, can an extension be set up so that, once the call goes back to dial tone, if the user does NOT

After passing authentication, Then with this line, extent => 3616739999,5,DISA(no-password calls-outbound) As soon as the first digit of the intended number to be called is entered, the system does a Hungup 'DAHDI/1-1' It has done that no matter what I have tried. I am missing the boat somewhere. Anyone have tips? Cary Fitch

I am not sure what the problems are and the reasons for the basic 64K modems used in VOIP are. I understand the compressed codecs that get the bandwidth down to 20-30 K. And perhaps the 64K units give much better potential audio than you would get on a normal POTS line. But, as phone circuits VOIP/SIP doesn't seem to perform as well as plane old phones. Multiple transcodings cause issues.

Is there a way to program an FXO device to totally ignore incoming calls? I want to put an FXO on a Fax line so that 911 calls can be sent via that line, but all other activity on the line is between the Fax machine and the phone company. Perhaps munge the ring tone detect if nothing else? Cary

I am trying to get called back with a DISA dial tone when I call a trigger number. I got it to work almost the way I want, this is the callback context: [callback] exten=> 501,1,Congestion() exten=> 501,2,Hangup() exten =>h,1,System(cp /etc/asterisk/callback.info /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing) exten =>h,2,Hangup() With the above, the call comes into the trigger number, then the call

Hello, We are working on implementing a solution for a medium service provider. They were previously using a Cisco AS5300 gateway with some PRI trunks to receive modem calls, then route them out the Internet. The Telco they were buying the trunks to discovered this configuration and restricted them due to legal conventions, and stated that in order to continue doing this, they would have to talk

AsteriskNOW 1.4.26.2 with a Digium TE205P connected to an ISDN PRI (single span). I'm sure I just have something goofed up in the dialplans? I have a bunch of Polycom 331 IP phones connecting to the server. I can dial the other extensions in the system fine and I can dial long distance outgoing but cannot seem to get it to dial local (7 digit) calls. I see this in the CLI: --

This sort of message is usually preceded by some magic tones that allow direct marketing application to immediately drop a call to a dead phone number. What is the proper terminology for the tones? Where can I find information about how this is implemented? -- Drew Einhorn

Has anyone here used T1s with RBS with asterisk? Cary Fitch

I need a country, state, city database for a web application. Anyone have a free version they can email (or drop.io) for me?

I haven't found this in any docs or faqs yet, so I'm wondering if I can achieve what I would like to do. On an Asterisk PBX with multiple PSTN lines, I'd like to call in from one PSTN line, probably via cellphone and access the PBX as if I were local to it. From here I'd like to get a dial tone and call back out. I know this isn't exactly call forwarding per se, but I'm

Hullo :) Can someone help me untangle a bit of a mess? I'm trying to set up a demo * server to show off how useful it can be to our business (as an IVR system and VoIP backup if our ISDN30s fail). I've not been able to get NT mode working with our InterTel Axxess PBX, so I've resorted to using normal TE mode and working on the basis the people dial one of the ISDN BRI extension

Hi All. I've been experimenting with SLA on Asterisk 1.4.13 (patched up to 1.4.14). I am using a SIP channel for my "trunk" line. On the whole things are good, but I have noticed that if I misdial an outgoing call, i.e. I get 404 "Not Found" in the SIP trace, then the trunk line just drops, rather than presenting an error tone or message to the user.

How can I let asterisk immediately dials a trunk when off hook?

I am trying to get a queue to do more than just play music and hold calls. Specifically, making some "comforting" voice announcements would be nice. Below is the queues.conf file relevant portions. Member phone number is munged to protect the guilty. We shouldn't need the announcement source info, but I have been trying everything. The problem is with the member busy, we get no
