Need some help with Trixbox and Vbuzzer
Hello everyone. I'm fairly new to Linux/Asterisk/Trixbox etc so you may have to be patient with me. I do have a problem with my connection between my Trixbox computer and my connection with Vbuzzer. Using the FreePBX section of Trixbox, I was able to input what I think is needed to have my trixbox find and contact the vbuzzer servers. I know my account works because when I use the vbuzzer softphone, I can make calls fine. The problem is in the incoming and outgoing of calls through my trixbox. Here is my set up. I am using x-lite soft phones on my computers and they work fine between computers for phone calls, so I know Trixbox works. When I review the asterisk information, it shows that the server is connected and registered with vbuzzer. Here are the settings that I have listed on FreePBX to make that connection: Trunk name: vbuzzer Peer details allow=ulawgsm authname=XX canreinvite=no context=from-internal disallow=all dtmf=rfc2833 dtmfmode=rfc2833 fromdomain=vbuzzer.com fromuser=XX hidecallerid=yes host=vbuzzer.com insecure=very nat=yes port=5060 qualify=yes secret=YY type=friend user=XX useragent=VBuzzer/1.1.0.9 username=XX User Context: DID number (the number given to me by Vbuzzer - 416NXX) User Details allow=ulawgsm canreinvite=no context=from-pstn disallow=all dtmfmode=rfc2833 fromdomain=vbuzzer.com fromuser=XX host=vbuzzer.com insecure=very port=5060 qualify=yes secret=YY type=friend username=XX And my Registration String is: XX:YY:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/416NXX Does anyone have any idea why my connection will not go through? Maybe it is something simple I am missing, or maybe its complex, but any help would be appreciated. Cheers!

Re: [on-asterisk] Need some help with Trixbox and Vbuzzer
Hi Christopher, Vbuzzer uses port 80 for SIP messages, so under the peer details you have to change change port=5060 to port=80. You probably have to do the same for user details, I am not very good when it comes to TrixBox (I am using just a plain asterisk), so I can't tell you for sure. You have to change also the registration string to use port 80. Now this may be tricky. Theoretically you have to use: register = XX:YY:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:80/416NXX but in some 1.2.x versions, the port parameter was broken, and I had to use register = XX:YY:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/416NXX where vbuzzer_peer was the label for my peer details for vbuzzer. I haven't checked recently whether that was fixed, I figured why break something that already works. Also, there's something I noticed with vbuzzer (at least that was valid a while ago): thir servers really don't like when you change the registration details frequently, and sometimes when you make a change you can't receive calls anymore,. However, if you just disable the registration for a while (a couple hours or so, to let all the previous registrations expire) and then re-enable it, it will work.

RE: [on-asterisk] Need some help with Trixbox and Vbuzzer
Thanks for the info Liviu. I made the changes you suggested, and I managed to get everything registered on port 80, however I still have the same problem. When I try and call my vbuzzer number it says the number is not in service, and when I try an outgoing call, it says all circuits are busy. I know the number works because I've tested it before with the soft phone that vbuzzer provides. Any suggestions as to what else could be the problem?

Re: [on-asterisk] Need some help with Trixbox and Vbuzzer
Christopher, I remember a post about this previously. I googled it and here's the link to the TAUG archive message. Bruce posted his Trixbox config. Maybe you'll find some pointers in there. http://users.taug.ca/list/index.cgi?0::2525 The HTML doesn't render properly on my machine, I'm not sure if it's my browser or what. If you can't read it, let me know and I can find it in my email. Dave On 6/12/07, Christopher Allsop [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks for the info Liviu.

NXTcomm next week in Chicago
Is anyone going to NXTcomm next week in Chicago? For those of you that aren't familiar with NXTcomm, it is by far the largest Telecommunications show in North America, and probably the world. I personally attended last year (when it was called Globalcomm). It was by far the largest trade show that I had ever been to. I spent 2 full days (10am-5pm) and I still didn't have enough time to get through all of the tradeshow floor. Details on the show can be found at http://www.nxtcommshow.com/ All of the big VoIP and telephony companies are there. There was a lot of vendors with asterisk related content there as well. Digium will be there. I am going driving down again this year with a colleague. We are leaving the Toronto area around 1pm on Monday in order to get there late Monday night so we are ready to hit the show floor Tuesday at 10am when it opens. If anyone is interested in following us down or meeting up with us there let me know. We are planning on heading back around noon on Thursday. For those of you that haven't been to a show this size before, apart from all the free swag there is to be had, all the major vendors are their with their HUGE marketing budgets. This means FREE FOOD, FREE BEER, FREE BOOZE, and tonnes of FREE partys. As a new CLEC I already have invites to most of the big parties and I can get anyone that tags along in to those parties as well. For example, Wednesday 6pm - midnight dinner and drinks at the legendary Chicago House of Blues...open Bar. I can tell you that last year in the 3 days that we were there we didn't pay for a single meal. The recruiting company dice.com started handing out free beer at 10am. I also have plenty of URL links to complimentary tradeshow passes from vendors for those that don't want to shell out $150 USD to get in the door (even though it is worth it) Bill Sandiford Telnet Communications 905-674-2000 x100 [EMAIL PROTECTED] IMPORTANT NOTICE: This message is intended only for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed, and may contain information that is privileged, confidential and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.

outgoing fine, no incoming with TrixBox and VoiceNetworks
Okay, so I am still having trouble with vbuzzer even after unregistering my computer for a few hours and re-registering it.so I decided to try an account with Voice Networks and within 5 minutes it started working! Sort of. I can place outgoing calls with Voice Networks as my primary outgoing trunk, but when I call in, the phone number just keeps ringing and it sounds like my trixbox just is not answering it. Does anyone know if there is a setting where you tell Trixbox/FreePBX to answer the phone? It is a DID from Voice Network that I am calling and having the problem on now. Sorry for the multiple emails everyone, but I feel I am near an answer, but just out of reach.
