I had a similar problem with my 7960 phones. It ended up being a problem with quotes in the SIPXXXXXXXX.cnf file.
Do a "sip show peers" from the console to see if the 7960 is registered properly. For a test set the following values in the cnf file line1_name: "8005" line1_shortname: "8005" line1_authname: "8005" line1_password: "8005" line1_displayname: "8005" In sip.conf change the entry to [8005] type=friend username=8005 secret=8005 canreinvite=no host=dynamic mailbox=8005 callerid=Hao Zhong Desk<8005> nat=no Reload asterisk and reboot the phone. This should get you up and running. I know it's changing everything, but get it working with this config, then change one var at a time until you find the one that is causing you problems. -sb -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Hao Zhong Sent: Friday, December 12, 2003 3:23 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Re: estara softphone problem Hi Scott, thanks for the reply. Here is how my sip.conf looks like for the softphone, I tried type '3Dfriend' and asterisk didn't like it. [hzhong-desk] type=friend username=hzhong-desk callerid="Hao Zhong Desk" <8005> mailbox=8005 secret=cisco nat=no host=dynamic canreinvite=no qualify=200 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Bisker, Scott Sent: Friday, December 12, 2003 2:48 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Asterisk-Users] estara softphone problem In sip.conf do you have=20 type=3Dfriend for your softphone?
