If you have then it's a universal issue and not hardware specific. I would really appreciate it if you look into your logs and let me know. If you are asking me to look into the logs when the U100 is not recognised and it is flashing - I'm afraid I can't help much - as this problem went away and haven't had issues any more for at least 6-8 months now. Considering the U100 persist in giving problems even after computer restarts somehow sounds to me like a hardware issue. I wouldn't be surprised if the Acer Aspire motherboard is not coping very well with both of them being plugged in - although, obviously, it should. This linux-usb FAQ seems to also suggest that the problem is hardware (based on the device is not accepting address error message): http://www.linux-usb.org/FAQ.html#ts6 Have you tried disabling in bios everything you don't use - maybe sound card, wifi etc. to free some IRQ's? I run kernel 2.6.33.4-smp - just in case it helps. Let me know if you need any other info. If you find a final solution - I would be curious to know - just in case I will stumble over this problem. It wouldn't be a bad idea to build a script which grep's lsusb output - and run it through cron maybe every 10 minutes - to try and determine more precisely when does the U100 stop being recognised. Then you can look through the logs to see if there is anything else happening in the system around the same time.

If your setup is larger, you should also add maybe the calling extension to the file name - so that you don't have two files with the same name - if two extensions try to call the same external number at exactly the same time (seems unlikely to me).

If you already know the internal extension you are going to dial when a particular FXO port starts ringing, you do not need to answer the inbound call before calling Dial() in your dialplan. The Dial() application will automatically answer the originating call when the called party answers before bridging. Now if you don't know which internal extension you're going to dial you are out of luck. You'll have to answer in order to get the DTMF digits of the extension from the caller. -- Shaun Ruffell Digium, Inc. | Linux Kernel Developer 445 Jan Davis Drive NW - Huntsville, AL 35806 - USA Check us out at: www.digium.com www.asterisk.org -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

[asterisk-users] VoIP PoE phones for restaurant
Greetings, I mailed the list regarding an intercom system some months ago and we came to the conclusion that I should purchase a Polycom 501 phone. I'm now considering the purchase for this year, and I'm now wondering between the Polycom 501 and the 320 for the intercom. I don't need the spare ethernet on the phone because I would like to have my voice network separate from my regular LAN. Which one would be easier to use, the 501 or the 320? I want PoE, were these both made before PoE was standardized and do I need a special cable? Can I make this cable myself? In the future we plan to have 7 phones in the house. I'm considering what kind of PoE switch I should purchase. I have 3 PoE access points (for two separate LANs). I've been considering th HP ProCurve 2610-24/12PWR Switch (J9086A) ( http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/il/en/sm/WF06b/12883-12883-3445275-427605-427605-3751584-3658873.html ) It's got 12 PoE ports, it's managed, and it looks like I can pick one up for under $500.

Re: [asterisk-users] Replacing digital pri card
I don't imagine this would be too complicated - don't have any experience with AsteriskNOW - but on a 'vanilla' linux distro it would just be a matter of making sure dahdi is loading the correct drivers and doing a couple of minor config file updates.

Are there any issues I should expect to run into? I'm hoping the transition will be smooth, however I havent had to do this in the past. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

[asterisk-users] Question About Conferencing Capabilities
My company is building a VOIP application, and initially were just using a barebones OpenSIPS implementation to host one-on-one calls; however, we want to expand the functionality to conferencing (which, of course, OpenSIPS doesn't handle) and was looking into Asterisk (the other option being Freeswitch). I've been poring through the docs, and have even set up a test server myself, but there are some very specific things we are looking for that I can't figure out if Asterisk can do or not. We want to be able to do the following: - Create dynamic, on-the-fly conferences that can remain active even when initiating user leaves - Within a conference, give users the ability to mute and/or deaf individual users - Give users the ability to enter a whisper mode with another user - where they are holding a private conversation that can only be heard by the two of them ( It sounds like the Meetme module has a functionality like this, but it is a little vague in the documentation) - Allow users to be in two conferences at once; the user would most likely have one muted at any given time so as to hear the other one, but we want them to be able to switch back and forth easily Could anyone advise me on whether Asterisk can accomplish these needs, or perhaps what it might take to do so? We are not averse to doing some customization if we can find the people who know how to make it happen!
