I am having difficulty with ring back on my Nufone connection.  As I
have been unsuccessful in getting Nufone to respond and address this
issue I would like to know if anyone else is having this problem.
I have noticed in posts on this forum that others have had issues with
the support from Nufone which is very disappointing.

[Asterisk-Users] asterisk-providers mailing list?

2004-05-20 Thread Reed Wade
It seems like it might be nice to have a mailing list to talk about (and 
to) voip providers for Asterisk users.

It would be a good place to share info about config, pricing news, 
customer service, local numbers, transient outages, etc. Providers would 
be encouraged to contribute sales info. Users would be able to help each 
other out with technical and non-technical issues.

Seems good for everyone and it would keep some of the noise and hurt 
feelings out of the other lists.

The real goal of the list would be to improve the quality of the 
experience for customers and suppliers. This is something we need to 
improve in order for voip to be taken more seriously.

I've got problems with my own IP connection but aside from

I've got an 800 number for incoming calls and I can route
long distance calls out to NuFone. Both directions is
$0.029/minute.
They are still building their web based account management
tools but I saw a preview and they look pretty nice.
It's a prepay service and there doesn't seem to be an account
set up fee right now so it's easy to get set up and try it
out--that's what I'm doing.
For what it's worth, I didn't do any investigation of alternatives.
Good customer service, like NuFone appears to be in the business
of, is usually worth a lot more than maybe getting the lowest
rate.

[Asterisk-Users] Grandstream BudgeTone 102 initial experiences

2003-07-18 Thread Reed Wade
Just to toss in my very limited experiences with the Grandstream phone--

I haven't tested it enough to really know nor is my Asterisk
config set up enough to fully try all the features.
Mostly, it just works. It was very easy to configure and
get running. I've been toting it around to clients as a
show and tell exhibit and it has helped get people excited
about the possibilities.
Voice quality is great using the handset. I have had
some problems using the speaker phone. Folks say they
can barely hear me. Also, it's prone to double digiting
when the speaker phone is used--you type 307 and Asterisk
hears 33077.
I haven't upgraded the firmware or messed with any settings
so these problems may be resolvable. I do intend to try
because it's an otherwise reasonable phone and I want it
to work.
It seems to work well behind a NAT.

I agree with others regarding the look and feel. I've seen
far worse but it does feel a little cheap. If they just changed
the name or labeling from BudgeTone to ExpensiTone but kept
the good pricing that would help a lot. It lacks elegance.
The soon to be released grey model may improve it's image.
You cannot wall mount this phone (easily). There are mounting
holes on the bottom and the handset has a little concavity
in the right place but there's no nub/pin to keep the
handset in place when on hook. I haven't asked the Grandstream
folks about this--maybe I got a dud or maybe they already
plan to address this.
I just bought a new house and am seriously thinking about
sprinkling these throughout and using Asterisk to control
things like the lights and thermostat (oh, and for phone
calls, too).

X100P mod or USB relay box, RE: [Asterisk-Users] Line Override Device

2003-07-14 Thread Reed Wade


The best solution would be an enhancement to the X100P card.

If the 2nd RJ jack was a pass through for the line except
when the card had power and was initialized. Some kind of
watchdog functionality would also be nice so that if, for
example, Asterisk dies then pass through functionality would
take effect after n seconds.
This would probably mean adding a relay to the board which
would raise to cast a little. But, as the original poster
indicated this is critical for a serious system.
An alternative would be an extra relay box, maybe powered by
USB. One mode could be to switch based on presence of power,
another mode could require periodic watchdog pings via the
USB. I always wanted to build something using a USB flavored
PIC...
I can see this for small offices (like ours). We have 4 incoming
lines in a hunt group. If Asterisk is not running I want one of
those lines to ring the receptionist (maybe using a simple dedicated
phone since they'd otherwise have an IP phone) and the others looped
for busy.
I can see a box with USB and 12 RJ jacks (4 x (1 in, 2 outs)) to make
that work.
Would anyone buy a product like that?

This power failure thing does not have to be complicated.
A few solutions come to mind:
1) A 3,5,12 (whatever is needed) power supply (wall wart)used with a relay 
(DPDT).  When the wall wart has power, the computer takes the call.  When 
power fails, the POTS line falls in to place.
Now, this does not delay while the computer is booting up.

2) A basic stamp computer - about $25-30.  It has 8 programmable i/o 
pins that will drive relays. One pin monitors either a wall wart or 5v 
from one of the plugs on your computer's power supply.  When pin 1 goes 
low (no power) relay kicks in to bypass computer and connect POTS line 
direct.  When power returns program jumps to a sleep or delay statement 
for xMINS until computer boots. And then releases relay for normal 
operation.  www.parallaxinc.com and resellers.

How so? I assume you're talking about scale and not
reliability. We get a relatively small number of calls
but any one of them could be worth a large stack of
cash for our business. A stinky phone system can make
us look bad.
The main reason I'm looking at Asterisk is to improve
the reliability and control over our phone system.
All the other great things it provides really are
secondary for the folks who pay my salary.



Only if you aren't pulling power from the USB bus. There isn't much
there.
There may be just enough depending on how many relays are needed,
but it would be too close. I agree, better off not trying to get
power from there.
I do like the idea of some kind of watchdog functionality. Simply
having power isn't sufficient to trust that a call is getting
routed.

 I'm wondering if someone could point me to SIP configuration
 examples or education so I can understand what I'm doing. I'm
 finding the client configuration more confusing that the *
 configs.
Your client will want an auth name or two (use the username for these), a
secret or password (the password), a port number (5060 is the default and
you can change it in the [general] section of sip.conf), maybe a realm
(the context though it is not important for authentication), a sip proxy
address - your asterisk server's ip address, and that should be it. Most
have an option you have to turn on to tell the client to actually register
with the proxy. turn that on and check to see that your client is
connected with 'show sip peers' on the asterisk console. It might also be
helpful to turn on 'sip debug' to see if your client is trying to
register. If you got the x-lite working the others should be easy too..
You'll see..
 An example of password protected SIP phone access would also be
 very helpful.
see above.

 I need to be able to support folks working from home connecting
 through the net as well inside the office. I expect NAT to be
 a pain.
NAT is not so hard once you get it going. First: make sure your asterisk
server has a public IP address and the ONLY default gateway on the machine
is set to the router for the public ip. Make sure you have set nat=yes in
the corresponding sip.conf entry for the device you're setting up, then
start poking at your client for the settings that say I'm behind a NAT
-- they are designed to make sure the packets source at the same UDP ports
they need to come back to so that the NAT's will open up a pathway back to
the internal device. Some clients do this by default anyway -- On the
X-Lite phone you don't really have to do much of anything -- maybe uncheck
the box that says Send Internal IP though I have found that it doesnt
really matter if nat=yes on the asterisk box. On the cisco 7960 phones,
the following settings work:
nat_enable: 1
nat_address; 
voip_control_port: 5060
start_media_port: 16384 ; You can reduce this port range if you
end_media_port: 32766   ; have a picky firewall
nat_received_processing: 1  ; Makes phone re-register if your ip changes
Hope this helps you some...

[Asterisk-Users] newbie needs SIP config examples -- especially soft phones

2003-06-17 Thread Reed Wade


Hi,

I'm experimenting with the dev kit lite and now past the USB
unpleasantness it's working great with standard phones and
lines.
The priority right now is getting soft phones (under Windows
XP) working well.
So far, I've only been able to get the XTEN Lite phone working
and I really don't understand how I set it up. I used xten
for every option everywhere (display name, username, password,
and Domain/Realm) and the corresponding section in sip.conf.
I've had no luck getting the SJ Labs soft phone to connect using
a similar blunderbuss method.
I'm wondering if someone could point me to SIP configuration
examples or education so I can understand what I'm doing. I'm
finding the client configuration more confusing that the *
configs.
An example of password protected SIP phone access would also be
very helpful.
I need to be able to support folks working from home connecting
through the net as well inside the office. I expect NAT to be
a pain.
thanks,
-reed

Re: [Asterisk-Users] soft phones -- voice quality tuning

2003-06-17 Thread Reed Wade


I was about to say 'yes' and they were worse but now I can't
remember for certain. I'll try those again to make sure.
Are they likely to be better?

I've got the XTEN Lite soft phone mostly working with * but it's
dropping out like a very bad cell phone call.

The GSM codec is worst (unusable), G711u and G711a are best but
not good enough to use.

I don't think it's a lack of bandwidth.

What tuning options or approaches should I be investigating to
make this work.

Also, what's the best soft phone(s) for Windows XP?

thanks,
