Re: [asterisk-users] Anyone that know of DECT "client" for asterisk?

2020-10-07 Thread Sebastian Nielsen
The problem is that there is only a few operators left (4 in sweden) of which 2 
have stopped accepting new customers at all.
And the 2 other requires a credit check with a minimum monthly wage of 1200$ 
(which is the "golden standard" for getting a loan) just because theres no 
"credit limit" and you could potentially call for as much as you want.

They aren't even interested in getting "low-credit" customers, and when I asked 
if they instead could put up a credit limit, they told me thats something they 
will do when the account is approved and opened - ergo its not a way of 
bypassing the wage limit, but is a way of own peace, and they also told me that 
the credit limit is not a gurantee that the bill will stay below the limit, it 
will only check during new calls, they will not terminate a call due to credit 
limit, which means a premium call could still overshoot the account.

Most operators in sweden use the TechniColor modem, which also is a DECT base 
station.
I think that such a solution would create a very reliable solution as long as 
the actual hardware is close to the DECT base station.

Since the DECT/GAP protocol is digital, theres no analog-digital or 
digital-analog conversion circuit needed.

I have seen a lot of DECT USB adapters, but these act "as a base station" (ergo 
accepts registrations from handsets) and not "as a handset".

If there is some hardware that is opposite, like "act as a handset" and could 
talk to a DECT base - it would be preferable.
Somebody that knows such hardware somewhere?
It must be someone that want to connect a asterisk server or other PC solution 
to a standard DECT base?

That's very irritating and make me angry. Few of my client had the same 
problem. The solution: write a letter asking the SIP credentials explaining you 
want configure your own equipment and tell them you switch to another provider 
in case of refusal. Good luck!

I don't know if there is an appropriate hardware to build a DECT bridge and I 
doubt that fiddling with anything like that will not be a reliable solution.

[asterisk-users] Anyone that know of DECT "client" for asterisk?

2020-10-03 Thread Sebastian Nielsen
Anyone here that knows some hardware USB "client" (DECT) that can connect to
a DECT base station and act as a "provider" in asterisk?

Ergo, asterisk is the DECT handset, and connects to the DECT base station.

Its also important that it also works with most asterisk-compatible devices,
including for example raspberry's.

 

The reason I ask, is that many providers in sweden have started disabling
SIP account details and now require usage of their own "router's". Using FXS
adapters is not an option as the digital->analog->digital conversion gives
very high echoes in the phones.

The idea is to have something simulate a DECT handset, connect to the
provider's router, and thus be able to still use asterisk.

 

Best regards, Sebastian Nielsen
