Re: [on-asterisk] Rogers My5 and free incoming/outgoing
If you felt like playing around for a while, you could just put your * box on speed dial and play with a voice dial application on Asterisk. I've never done it but I'm sure there are some resources out there. Simon did a presentation on his Speech rec system. I'm sure there are notes on the website. ... wait a minute. I seem to remember there being a caveat about cel phone audio not working well with the Sphynx. Hmmm. It would bear some research before you got too invested.

Re: Sangoma A101 and Asterisk 1.4
I am still having issues with my Sangoma T1 PRI card, so I'm hoping someone could give me some suggestions. In the meantime I reinstalled everything from scratch, recompiled a new kernel, and installed Asterisk 1.2.20 instead of 1.4.6. Now when I open a an Asterisk console, it logs this message every second or so == Primary D-Channel on span 1 up == Primary D-Channel on span 1 up == Primary D-Channel on span 1 up However the D channel still shows down on the switch. I am guessing it't going up and down very fast. Thanks, Liviu On 7/4/07, Liviu Toma [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, I have a problem with Asterisk 1.4 and a Sangoma T1 card (A101). Basically I can't make the D channel come up no matter what I tried. I installed the Zaptel driver, the Libpri and the wanpipe driver following the instructions on Sangoma's web site: http://wiki.sangoma.com/wanpipe-linux-asterisk-install The Sangoma card is connected to an Adtran Atlas 550 phone switch which is also in our office, so I can configure it anyway I want. Both the switch and the card are set to DMS100. I let the wanpipe setup create the configuration files, including the zaptel.conf and zapata.conf. One other thing I noiced, is that the zaptel.conf file created by the Sangoma setup was showing span=1,0,0,esf,b8zs while according to the ztcfg.conf explanation from the sample file, if the clock is coming from the remote end (in my case the Adtran switch), it should be: span=1,1,0,esf,b8zs So I tried changing that as well, but it didn't make a difference. The light on the Sangoma card is green, which I assume it means that it can see the clock from my switch. If I run *ztcfg -v* it reports Zaptel Version: 1.4.3 Echo Canceller: MG2 Configuration == SPAN 1: ESF/B8ZS Build-out: 0 db (CSU)/0-133 feet (DSX-1) 24 channels configured. Also *wanrouter status * reports Devices currently active: wanpipe1 Wanpipe Config: Device name | Protocol Map | Adapter | IRQ | Slot/IO | If's | CLK | Baud rate | wanpipe1| N/A | A101/2 | 22 | 0 | 1| EXT | 0 | Wanrouter Status: Device name | Protocol | Station | Status| wanpipe1| AFT HDLC | N/A | Connected | One interesting thing I noticed: I have another server running Asterisk 1.2 and a TE110P clone card. On that system I can run *zap show channels* in the asterisk CLI and I get a list of the channels. On the Asterisk 1.4box, it tells me the command is not valid.

I would personally recommend proper telco-grade hardware for anything like this. For FXS, a TE110P and a Carrier Access Access Bank I would be perfect, and reasonably priced on ebay. It's highly unlikely that you'll need any kind of echo cancellation on a length that short, and the ABI can drive long lines. You don't need to worry about disconnect supervision or anything on FXS ports, either, which is why you can get away with the older ABI and ABII instead of moving up to the Adit600. Adtran and Rhino make FXS channel banks as well, and Xorcom makes a USB channel bank as well, but I have not used any of these products. If you're running between buildings you may also need to worry about grounding and protection. I'd need to know more information to be able to tell you anything concrete, but yeah, for under $500 you can have yourself 24 ports of telco-grade FXS to play with.

Is there any way to have two POTS lines rollover or call forward on busy, when a third call comes in the call gets forward to an Unlimitel account. Yes, this equivilancy or ringdown or call-forward-busy is pretty standard on any kind of business line. You simply tell your POTS provider that 555-1234 is to ring down to 555-1235 and that 555-1235 is to ring down to 555-8647, which is your DID at Unlimitel. Now where you may run into trouble is if your Unlimitel DID is not local to your POTS lines, and I've heard of (but never personally seen) instances of where they would not forward to numbers outside of their local switch. I suspect some hunting around and question-asking is needed to fully define that particular case. I have heard of using a Single number reach service from bell to do forwarding tricks, anyone tried that ? Nah, never used it. I give people my Unlimitel DID and let Asterisk do it for me. :-) -A.
Re: [on-asterisk] Can POTS Rollover lines also roll to SIP provider
It is very possible. I have my POTS line Busy-CFWD to my Unlimitel number. It was painful customer service experience, but I finally got someone at Bell who understood what I wanted as it is not an actively marketed feature. So now POTS and Unlimitel terminate on the same treatment within Asterisk so we fully support multiple lines at the house. And to boot, it's cheaper than any of the other services Bell are marketing to us. dbc.

Some things at Rogers will never change! :)So this means that Rogers can technically offer this service to all Rogers clients for free as a value added service -- but is completely useless, if the call originates from outside the Rogers network! I'd classify this as technically un-ethical. Cheers!

Re: [on-asterisk] openmoko linux phone finally available!
Simon P. Ditner wrote: Mmm, linux phone. I realize that this isn't likely to have large market appeal (in the near future at least), but it's so cool! Is anyone thinking of getting one? I've got one on order. They are just ramping up to sell online. FIC, the company behind the hardware, normally sells phone by the tens of thousands to channels (carriers), so this online individual sales is new to them; they're sending a crateload of phones from Taiwan to California and shipping the orders out from there. I hope to be able to show it by the next meeting :-)

Richard (Rogers @ work) wrote: Is it a gsm phone? Or can one it with Telus? All the first gen OpenMoko Neo1973 phones are GSM. All OpenMoko.com phones that you buy direct are unlocked, of course, and will work with any carrier (Hmmm, in canada that gives you the choice of Rogers, or, well, Rogers). OpenMoko is a linux distro for phones, and OpenMoko.com (the FIC subsidiary that's making the initial hardware) will have other phones in the future. The parent FIC already offers some CDMA phones, so you can imagine that they will have something in the future that will interest you.

Even if they do come out with a CDMA model good luck finding a carrier here in Canada. Telus and Bell do not allow any phones but their own. From HowardForums: Bell Mobility does not allow *ANY* cell phone NOT SOLD BY BELL MOBILITY on their network. *PERIOD* Telus Mobility will NOT allow for the addition of any foreign (non-Telus) ESN regardless if the phone is unlocked or not! In short, you CANNOT use non-Telus phones on Telus Mobility's network. Please do NOT ask how it can be done. Good thing we have real competition here in Canada (sarcasm). Once again you have the choice of Rogers, or, well, Rogers. Blaine Aldridge

Hey, So I figure I can't be the only one in TAUG that is going to line up for the iPhone. They have yet to announce a Canadian date (from the news I read) but if its any time soon ill be the first in line. So who else is planning on buying an iPhone the day of release? We should form some sort of iPhone TAUG line. Blaine Aldridge

Re: [on-asterisk] Rogers My5 and free incoming/outgoing
Hi, Bill Rogers Name Display support the incoming Name display not only for Rogers phone, but also Bell PSTN phone, as long as both side using SS7-ISUP which is very common (99%) to carry GN parameter (the caller's name in the database). Rogers exchange their name database with Bell. Nabeel is right, there is a limitation for choice of handsets which can not be solved from network side. You shall knock the head of Rogers CSR to get $2 back. I am very happy for my $2 I paid because I can see the Caller's name no matter it is a residential line or a business name from Bell/Telus PSTN line! Unlimtel doesn't support Caller Name at this moment, while voicenetwork supports. Best. //Kevin On 7/10/07, Bill Sandiford [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I pay for it.
