Re: [asterisk-users] Softphone to be installed on the Mobile
Why don't you set up port forwarding on your router. You may also want to look at fring. You register with them and they register with your server. This way if you are using wifi and you go out of range it can connect over your GSM connection and you do not loose your registration. It is supposed to work so that the call does not drop but I never tested that part. - Original Message - From: bilal ghayyad [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Sent: Wednesday, December 26, 2007 1:56 AM Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Softphone to be installed on the Mobile Thanks a lot for the help.

There's an application server that sits between asterisk and the gprs network that can switch calls real time between wifi, your office pabx extensions and the gsm network. I've forgotten the name of it but I remember it costs $US6,000 for 10 licenses. If you want me to find out more I can spend the time to look into it but only after you've said yes to the budget.

Divitas Networks http://divitas.com/ has an asterisk based solution that allows seamless roaming between the Wi-Fi and GSM network. An appliance connects to or is the PBX on the office LAN and a client runs on the smartphone. The appliance and client then coordinate which network to use based on signal strength and availability. -- Eric Chamberlain, CISSP Chief Technical Officer Voxilla - http://voxilla.com/ -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:asterisk-users- [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of bilal ghayyad Sent: Wednesday, November 21, 2007 1:29 AM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: [asterisk-users] Softphone to be installed on the Mobile Hi All; Is there a softphone that can be installed on a mobile (new mobile models), so it can work with Asterisk as following: 1) As SIP or H323 client, with the ability to add button functionalities (call pickup, call transfer, ...) so if there is a wireless network, then it can use it to connect to Asterisk and work as client, but from the Mobile. 2) If there is no wireless network, then it can receive calls via the GSM (doing a special settings on Asterisk to forward the call to the mobile number), so he can receive the call and do the PBX functionalies (transfer, pickup, forward)?

There are several methods allowing you to do this, but most are operator dependent. UMA (unlicensed mobile access), which is an unfortunate name as in several countries (including all of EU) all spectrum is licensed (though some is license excempt - which isn't unlicensed). This uses a home basestation which connects back to the GSM operator over IP. There's basically a switch in the GSM core which can flip between the call over GSM or WiFi. In the UK BT call this Fusion (in conjunction with Vodafone). Companies like Truphone run a software shim on the phone. When you make a call it actually prefixes the outbound call with a Truphone prefix, so if it's via GSM the call actually goes through them. That way they get termination revenue from the mobile networks, which hopefully covers [1] the cost of the actual onward call. If in range of a WiFi network the phone establishes a connection to an end-point in Truphone's network and switches the call (and if the WiFi degrades, it switches back to GSM). Both the above assume that the calls terminate on a system controlled by the network (or Truphone), so that sessions can be controlled by them. It would be possible to do this with software in the phone and all calls terminating on your kit which then passes the call on to the PSTN, so if WiFi is available it can originate the call from there, but it needs to switch to GSM/etc if you move out of range - so you need to be in control of both end-points of the call. Steve Note [1] Truphone took T-Mobile to the High Court in the UK as T-Mobile refused to route their number block. They won and T-Mobile were forced to route Truphone's numbers. The court also ruled that as they were providing a VoIP service, they should only get sub-pence termination rates - which means they don't cover onward call rates (as they terminate to traditional telcos), so although Truphone won the battle, they pretty much lost the war. -- NetTek Ltd UK mob +44-(0)7775 755503 UK +44-(0)20 79932612 / US +1-(310)8577715 / Fax +44-(0)20 7483 2455 Skype/GoogleTalk/AIM/Gizmo/Mac stevekennedyuk / MSN [EMAIL PROTECTED] Euro Tech News Blog http://eurotechnews.blogspot.com ___ --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
