[asterisk-users] Programming soft buttons on the IP601?

2006-12-13 Thread Warren (mailing lists)
When the IP601 is sitting unused, it uses the first 2 of the 4 soft buttons under the screen. The third one is empty, which is good because it is used for Exit. I would like to be able to use that 4th button for group pickup (*8#) and have it read Pickup. Is this possible? If so, how?

[asterisk-users] Fax pdf attachment naming badly when no caller id on zaptel

2006-11-16 Thread Warren (mailing lists)
I just installed a Digium TDM04B card. The lines that are plugged into it do not send caller id. As a result (i believe) of no caller ID, the name of the fax pdf is .pdf. The subject is Fax from. Windows clients do not like opening files with just an extension. Is there a simple way to

[asterisk-users] Good phones for outside of the office?

2006-10-30 Thread Warren (mailing lists)
I am looking for phones that work well (or at all) when outside of the network and behind a router, such as at someone's home or in a hotel. My Polycom IP601s do not seem to be up to the task, so I am hoping that there is a good alternative for my outside sales people to use to talk to my

I am taking a Polycom IP601 home to try to figure out how to provision it outside of the office for our outsides sales people. Our asterisk server has a direct outside IP. The IP601 will be behind a router at home so it will not have an outside IP. I am fully opening the company firewall for

In my case it was not a class c, but just 4 separate addresses, one each in NY, Seattle, Miami and London on the Level 3 network. I ended up creating separate entries for each, in and out, and for the outbound route, put all 4 in the order of their ping times. That is working nicely. W

Sorry - I misread it. Have you ever had a network card fail in a way that did not lock up every network-bound job on the system? I would think that it would be unlikely that you could recover from that easily. Yes, redundant drives with RAID-1 is good. If those drives are hot-swappable and the
