Dan the Man, I was trying to use DIAX to call via iconnect (with asterisk in the middle)
It fails, for no apparent reason. * consle show its trying to connect. While x-lite continues on and bridges the two (x-lite to * and * to iconnect) DIAX doesn't, it just hangs up. Any ideas? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dan Sent: Thursday, November 06, 2003 7:03 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Questions from a total beginner Hi, >-----Original Message----- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On >Behalf Of Marrs Seven >Sent: Sunday, November 02, 2003 10:20 PM >>To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Questions from a total beginner > ... >I have two PC's that I want to network together using Linksys 802.11g gear (WRT54G ap/router & a WMP54G PCI > card in my * server).

You need then just a sound card and a headset. > 5) My * server will be operating behind NAT on the broadband router, but from what I've read, that can work, although > SIP phones can have some difficulty with NAT. Can the VoIP phone used eliminate any problems with NAT? Use IAX... works like a charm behind NAT . > 6) What are the pros and cons if we were to have the various locations (individuals and eventually the second * server) communicate over a VPN? The reliability of the connection is important. I use frequently DIAX through a low end VPN connection (Microsoft PPTP) and no problems at all.
