Re: [asterisk-users] Disconnect Supervision UK / BT solution?
Sorry -- you're right, I didn't express the scenario properly .. The disconnect supervision problem is when I 'forward'/divert an incoming POTS call out another FXO channel to a mobile phone or POTS line. (POTS - Sangoma|Asterisk - POTS/mobile) When the incoming POTS hangs up and/or the mobile the person was connected to .. Asterisk/Sangoma doesn't hang the Zap channels up. I have tried busydetect and busycounts and a number of settings are enabled for UK CallerID support (polarity switch stuff) ... but I had some sketchy side effects with busydetect etc and am wary of premature hangups Thanks for your query -- Chris - Original Message - From: Ed W [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Chris Earle (CBL) [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Sent: Friday, January 19, 2007 1:26 PM Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Disconnect Supervision UK / BT solution? Does anyone have any thoughts/confirmation about this finally being a viable solution? This disconnect supervision problem has plagued TDM and Sangoma cards for a long time! Just to be clear, what is the exact disconnect problem that you see? I have three TDM cards in two different systems, one using PBX lines and one on a private BT line. Both of them have trouble detecting a caller who is ringing, but then hangs up before being answered by the asterisk system However, *all* of them are absolutely fine at spotting a normal hangup once the call is connected and I see no random disconnects during calls either. Can you confirm that this is what you mean, or whether it's something else?

Just to clarifydoes it all work ok if you are using SIP or IAX for the forwarded channels? Eg local SIP phones? I only have incoming zap lines in my config and with the exception of hangup on ringing I have found hangup detection to work fine. I have a fax machine forwarding in my config as well and again no problems yet with hangup on that. Does it fail to work *every* time, or just intermittently? Does CallerId work ok in your setup? (can be a clue to help diagnose your setup) Ed W ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
