Re: [asterisk-users] Software for PC-PC voice comunication
Give zoiper a try, http://www.zoiper.com (I'm working for them) Works with SIP and IAX, and should be pretty easy to setup.

Re: [asterisk-users] RAMDisk vs Extarnal server for recording
There are 2 issues i think, one is the seek time on harddisks and the lack of a big buffer in Asterisk (saving 10 streams at the same time will cause a lt of random writes). The other one is the interrupts being taken up by the harddisk. So an SSD might help, saving to an network drive might help (it moves the issue to another server, where it might not cause a problem), buffering to ram (but you will lack space). The best solution depends on your exact hardware and the amount of writes you want to do. Buffering to a ramdrive before moving it over NFS seems like the best idea to me. Zoa Robin wrote: I'm having loads of problems with recordings, as in crappy audio quality and lost pieces of the recordings. I've been searching for a solution and the solutions i find on the interwebs include a ramdisk, for local recording, or another machine, handling the recording. I guess the ramdisk would be the easy solution and the external machine would be little harder to set up. I do actually prefer the external machine, but i'm not exaclty sure how to set that one up... The reason I prefer the external machine, is that the recording have to be moved to an external machine anyway. Although I've come across a post somewhere, talking about recording to ramdisk and then move the files over a crosscable directly to another disk over 1000mbit. Which sound nice as well... What do you advise for bringing serverload down and get rid of the harddisk bottleneck? Is a ramdisk a better solution then an external machine? And if so, why? Sorry about this pro-con question, but I cannot find an answer which compares these pro-cons anywhere. thanks, robin ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
Re: [asterisk-users] High Volume Call Center SIP versus IAX2
Easy to try, switch to sip for a day, see if the problems go away. I think its worth to move to sip if you dont care about the bandwidth and your router(s) can handle the extra packets /s Zoa Robert Grignon wrote: I wont say we are extremely high volume (40 concurrent calls) but I get occasional complaints about quality. Setup (at same location): Asterisk 1.4.26.2 FrontEnd Asterisk 1.4.26.2 Gateway with Sangoma A108D card with 2 PRI and LDT1 Connected via IAX2 trunking on its own VLAN Is IAX2 the way to go or would SIP trunking be better. I know its a pretty vague question but I am just trying to make sure I am approaching the setup correctly.

[asterisk-users] Astricon talk on wideband codecs
I missed the talk that was given on wideband codecs @ astricon last week. I tried to lookup the speaker on astricon.net, but that website seems horribly broken at the moment, showing only a tmcnet video, whatever page i click on. Would somebody have the contact details for that speaker ?

I doubt using one of the patches is a good idea either, it will lack the needed testing and it's all quite fragile.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk on OpenWRT
I have played with DD-WRT on linksys wrt54g version 5 last week (2 different ones, they are the model with less memory so i needed to use the micro version). I tried to use it as a repeater. (might have something to do with it) So far i read reports on great succes everywhere, my experience are not as good, the machines become highly unstable and i experienced heavy packetloss at random times. Encryption didn't work at all. Maybe other versions (with more memory or faster CPU's) are better, but my results were a disaster and i would not consider running Asterisk on top of that.

Because of closed-source drivers the Broadcom chips only work on the 2.4 series kernels. OpenWRT does make a 2.4 kernel version _and_ a 2.6 kernel version. Use the 2.4 and the radios work fine. 2) I suppose this should have been clear to me from the start, but without an external (or hacked internal) storage of some kind, running asterisk on Make sure you have the right version number within the Linksys model. They changed drastically the RAM/Flash in the units (downward) as the production ran on. There are some charts online to go by. But the skinny is use a WRT54GS v4 or lower. V1.1 2 were the good ones with double the RAM. 3) OpenWRT seems to be less stable and not as mature as dd-wrt, which I I guess this is someone subjective and OpenWRT is somewhat in flux with 2 products under the same brand right now. White Russian was the previous release which is still available. Used predominantly NVRAM configs and had a smaller audience of platforms that it would support. It did however have a great GUI with lots of features. Kamikaze is the new version which has moved to more traditional config files and has an objective to be more platform agnostic. As a long-time White Russian user I admit the GUI has a long way to go before it can be considered a replacement for the White Russian version. I myself have never encountered stability problems with either version. Not sure how much DD-WRT has improved. A few years back OpenWRT was the clear winner (in my mind - no flames please) and I haven't re-evaluated the competition lately. -dbc. ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2009 - October 13 - 15 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2009 - October 13 - 15 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
