[Asterisk-Users] Mitel 5220 phones
Hello, Just wanted to post a success story. I recently purchased 4 mitel 5220 phones and have them working with my Asterisk setup. Was fairly painless once I had the right phones. There are apparently several models of the 5220. Only the 50003791 and 50003790 are actually dual mode, so make sure to request those models. You can tell on the white mitel sticker on the back. Mine says MITEL 5220 IP DUAL PORT 50003791 and works fairly well. I don't have the paging function set up yet, but am able tomake incoming and outgoing calls. Here is what I had to do to make them work. The default is for them to be in Minet protocol, so you hold down the SuperKey (or Menu, depending on what insert you use) and apply power. It will come up and ask if you want to CONFIGURE PHONE? select YES. Then it will Say NETWORK PARAMETERS? select NO HARDWARE CONFIG? select NO PHONE MODE? select YES PROTOCOL? select YES PHONE MODE: Minet select Change Then select SIP, Accept, Yes, it will save to NVram, REBOOT NOW? select Yes It will reboot, then download the flash file from mitel, extract it, reboot again, then you can push Superkey and line 1, get the ip address, and go to the internal web server to set up the SIP and network setting you need, along with a user. Some things I have noticed up to now... The phone boot _much_ faster than the old 5055's I have. And there appears to be less echo. The 5220's ran me 290$ apiece. I will update as I find out more about the phones.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] goto() results in invalid extension
Yeah, yeah, rtfm, I know... :) This is after several editions. The original was trying to refer to the incoming DID of 6044, so was programatically correct at Goto(afterhours,6044,1) Plus, the GotoifTime's should work. Actually, the afterhours should work, if I have an extension of 'afterhours' in the current context. I didn't notice this until you pointed it out... but it was correct in previous revisions... and I was tyring to test it during the week, when the previous Goto's should have taken precidence... and they _all_ failed. Any reason why the rest should give me 'invalid extension'?

[Asterisk-Users] FXO cards
Hey, Here is a quesion for you. I am still battling with the phone system for my new buisiness. 6 incoming lines, 1 fax, DSL. 8 phones max, will provably start with 5 to save money. I was thinking of using Asterisk, but having difficulty finding appropriate buisiness phones. The Mitel 5055 is the best one I have found, but the price seems to be about 400$ per phone. $2K, plus a 500$ server, then how to get the 6 B1(pots) lines into it. I had thought of using a channel bank, but what a pain in the ass that is becoming. For one, they are expensive, and I then have to buy the T1 card for the phone server. I though, why not go with an FXO card. I wish there was an X400P card with 4 ports on it, but, que sera. I can get them for 100$ apiece, or $50 for the knock offs on ebay, but that means 6 pci slots. Not easy, I could use one of the pci extender boxes, but now I am worried about conflicts. Or dialogic analog 4 or 12 port cards for about 1500 to 1800$. :( This is getting expensive. Part of the idea was to save some money. The other part was to use open software as much as possible, and support the FOSS community where ever possible. Here comes the question, wait for it :) Has anyone had success with the dialogic 4 port cards, running 2 of them in a server with * in a buisiness environment as stated above. I am begining to think that I may be better off just going with a proprietary system and cough up the 6K and get it over with. There are a couple of solutions that will share the cat5 cable, that's something. Any ideas? Suggestions? Does anyone know of a solution provider out there who will be able to set this up for me for the 6K the phone system is going to cost me anyway?

[Asterisk-Users] Re: FXO cards
Steven, I know how to RTFM. I have found no reference yet to how many x100P cards I can run in one box. Where did you find that reference? I have looked at the manual avaliable from *.org, downloaded the pdf of the x100p card tech info, it doesn't say it anywhere. 'course, I'm just sad as it would be a much cheaper way to go. I was afraid that there would be a problem with multiple cards in one box. I can get the four port Dialogic card for about 900$, or the 12 for 2K. But then were are the same price, or just a bit more than a channel bank and a t100p card. So, the docs say no more than 2 x100p cards sane, has anyone done it? put 5 or 6 in one box? Michael.

[Asterisk-Users] was FXO cards
Hey guys, appreciate the input. Here are some thoughts. ADSI phones are out of the question. This is a business environment, I can't worry about my employees not knowing how to forward calls, answer calls when away from the multiline phone, and no ADSI phone will handle multiple lines that I have found. I would love to put 6 X100P cards in a case and run asterisk on it. but... I hate the idea of running a channel bank. It just seems unecessary, and more crap to break, set up, and buy. DIalogic 4 and 12 port cards are expensive. The 12 port prohibitively so, so I think I would be better off getting 2 of the 4 port cards. I have found them for 900$ apiece on ebay.

Case 3 proprietary system Mitel 3100 server: 3K Phones: 250$ apiece, 1250$ total. 4250$ total. Case 1 and 2 are ties in my eyes, except the channel bank would provably be cheaper to upgrade to 8 lines. I am just afraid of the channel bank. I just don't know anything about them. If I buy the wrong crap, it gets really expensive fast, plus adds another layer of complexity.

[Asterisk-Users] Phone compatibility list
Hello! Is there a phone compatibility list anywhere? I know Asterisk is supposed to be compatible with IP phones that support SIP, h.232, and IAX, but a list of phone known to be supported would be a nice addition to the documentation. I need a buisiness phone, and the Cisco is _EXPENSIVE_ I like the 3com 1102, but it is NBX phone, and I can find no documentation of this phone working with Asterisk, even though it is listed as a SIP phone, and is supposed to support h.232.
