Hi

I have Polycom 600s and 500s but I find that we need to dial *8 then send.  If 
we pickup then dial *8 the phone or Asterisk re-aranges it to 8*.  Likewise 
with *97 and *98 foes to 9*7 and 9*8.

This might help.

 Hello

 I have a Junghanns ISDN BRI card for incoming calls and use SIP Polycom
 IP300 phones.

 My config files look like this:

 features.conf
 pickupextn = *8

 zapata.conf
 context=frompstnisdn
 group=1
 callgroup=1
 pickupgroup=1

 I also edited sip.conf like this:
 group=1
 callgroup=1
 pickupgroup=1


 But on internal and incoming calls if I dial *8 from any phone I cannot
 pickup.  Do I need to add anything to extensions.conf?  do something else.
 I also tested with a Snom 190 and that cannot pickup using *8 either!

 Angus

Use Koolstart.  It is incorrect for Aust as we use Loopstart but it does not

 Hi, all

 I have installed TDM400 with 1 FXS and 1 FXP ports.
 Now I am goig through documentation on how to configure it.
 It mentions 3 protocols: Loopstart, Groundstart and Koolstart. Which one do
 I use?

 Can someone send me sample zaptel.conf file for Australia? This will save
 me some time and will be used as a working example.

 Thanks,
 Rudolf

Re: [Asterisk-Users] WiFi Phones

Very important for telephony wireless.


 Jim,

 I have one of the Hitachi WIP-5000 wifi phones. Been using it about 6
 months. I've even travelled with it and tried to make use of hotspots
 here and there. My primary application for the phone was to replace a
 Panasonic analog corldess phone and Sipura SPA-2000 combination for my
 home office.

 I have both 802.11b (house) and 801.11g (office)  on the property. The
 WIP-5000 is a .11b device. While it supports long encryption keys it
 does not support WPA...which is specific to .11g. I have been able to
 make it mount both WLANs with encryption enabled. There is a bit of an
 issue making it jump from AP to AP seamlessly as both APs must share
 channels  SSIDs, which is troublesome.

 As a phone its behaviour is very good. It's very small. The battery
 life has been good. It has a 2.5mm jack for a standard headset, which
 is essential for me. It can perform basic PBX functions better than the
 ATA/Panasonic pair. I wish that the volume would go a bit
 louder...that's my one major complaint about the phone.

 However, what I've learned about wifi along the way is more
 enlightening. My wlan is simply not sufficient to ensure a good voice
 experience. I've been using several access point including; Linksys
 WAP54G, Linksys WAP11b  a cheap Belkin 802.11b. None of these provide
 absolutely continuous calling. Periodically the wlan goes away for a
 couple of seconds then restores itself. The result is a momentary pause
 in an ongoing call...very much like a cell phone. The call never gets
 dropped, but I often need to ask the other party to repeat their last
 statement.

 Also, the range you can expect is nowhere near what you will achieve
 with a normal 2.4 or 5.8 GHz cordless phone. I get around 40-60 feet
 maximum...and I don't like in a brick house.

 As an alternative I've also purchased an Aastra 480 CTi which comes
 with a cordless handset. Too early to know much about this in detail
 but so far I like it a lot.

 Anyone have good words to say about any of the WiFi handsets currently
 available?

 Thanks.
