You need to be using firmware 1.0.1.12 on the GXP2000 There is a known issue with feedback/echo on the GXP2000 with earlier versions. It was fixed with .12 firmware and works fine.
Well mine does anyway...

I have evaluated a similar setup as yours involving the Granstream 2000. I was able to isolate two sources of echo. 1. The Grandstream 2000 when the volume is up will cause echo because the microphone picks up the speaker on the handset. Don't even attempt to use speakerphone as you will cause full echo that will drive the remote party nuts. This problem is specific to the phone and doesn't relate to Asterisk.

These seem to work well for me. echocancel=yes echocancelwhenbridged=yes echotraining=yes ; Use ztmonitor to adjust your gain to levels that work for you. rxgain=-4.0 txgain=-4.0 > >All the phones have been wired straight to the cisco 2950 >switch and all >cables have been tested and found to be good. > >I am completely at a loss at this point as to where to start >looking and >working to fix the problem.

When you place a call outbound, launch it and watch your gain as you speak. If you can humm a tone at around normal speaking voice to the far side, you can adjust the tx gain up or down to get it about halfway. Have the far end party do the same for the rx gain. It is trial and error. I was surprised to find that my setup worked best by turning the gain down.

It may be worth a try. http://www.digium.com/index.php?menu=product_detail&category=hardware&pr oduct=TE411P&tab=details You may still hear echo at the first moment a call is placed, but it should completely disappear in a few seconds. -- Shawn _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation sponsored by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation sponsored by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
