I had a lot of problems with garbled IAX calls (even when calling into just the IVR). The problem was compacted when I would bridge an incoming IAX call to an outgoing SIP call, though that may be a fault of Asterisk. Since using SIP everything has been working perfectly. I never had any real problems with dropping calls (that weren't on my end). However, I don't use IAX anymore, so I am not aware of any current issues.

It was regarding dropped inbound calls. I was able to put my server into a different location though, and so far the issues have disappeared so hopefully it was a network problem somewhere between us. Just curious what problems you encountered as I would prefer to use IAX if possible. John, I've tried a few services, and Voicepulse was the clear winner for me. I still have two other services in my dialplan for failover, but Voicepulse will remain the primary for now. The voice quality has been very good, and their technical support has been absolutely fantastic for a no-charge service.

It doesn't matter how great the carrier is, the Internet is an unreliable medium. 2-3 times VoicePulse has had issues with incomings calls ringing busy. Once incoming calls were all garbled on my end, although the customer could hear me fine. Generally, the outbound service is reliable. However, you should have a backup carrier anyway. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Meksavan Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2007 1:09 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] VoicePulse Connect Wes, What kind of service outages did you experienced?

I've been using it for over a year now, and do not have any major complaints, except that there are no printable receipts for credit card transactions. SIP is also the preferable protocol, as IAX seems to have some issues. Customer service is usually pretty good, and there have been very few (although a couple) problems with service outages. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Meksavan Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2007 12:30 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [asterisk-users] VoicePulse Connect Asterisk Users, Has anybody use Voicepulse Connect for Asterisk? I am trying to cover all my bases because in the past, I got burned with poor quality of service, along with failed DTMF tones with 3 different SIP Providers (Vitelity, Broadvoice, and Teliax). I am running Asterisk 1.2.13 on the Debian Etch system, using the SIP protocol. Any insights would be great.
