[asterisk-users] Grandstream 2010
The Grandstream 286s automatically re register when a connection is restored. Our Grandstream 2010s don't. Does anyone know of a setting that makes them reregister? I has tweaked Watchdog timer and anything that looked promising.

We've managed to achieve or goal using 1.4 and a few hacks. 1) When the agent logs in / logs out, we rewrite the part of the dialplan for the hints and reload the dialplan 10 seconds after the *last* login / logout 2) For the MWI, we give each phone a fake voicemail (let's say _0001_). When an agent logs in, we link /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/_0001_ to /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/[mailbox] (where [mailbox] is the mailbox of the agent) and when they log out, we remove /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/_0001_ This seems to work - the MWI lights up / off depending on the new vm within a couple of seconds 3) When checking for voicemail, each phone is configured to dial - the dialplan then checks the callerid (set by #1) and gets the mailbox for the agent.

Re: [asterisk-users] Grandstream 2010 and blinky lights
Because DEVSTATE is for custom hints - and have you tried to set one every time a phone rings/is answered? This was thought about - but the logic in the dialplan would be a nightmare. Anyway, doing it the way I do it works for me (and others) as my dialplan contains nothing but 'include' and 'switch' statements now (so it reloads fast). Thanks for the reply though :) -Original Message- From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Matt Riddell Sent: 08 July 2009 09:59 To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Cc: aster...@dotr.com Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Grandstream 2010 and blinky lights On 8/7/09 8:52 PM, Andrew Thomas wrote: That's exactly the way I do it as well :D -Original Message- From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Julian Lyndon-Smith Sent: 06 July 2009 11:16 To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Grandstream 2010 and blinky lights Thanks for the info.
