Elastix / FreePBX Configuration

[nic777]

Hi guys,

Great thread.

I am in the process of setting up Elastix with FNB connect as well and having been following this thread in detail today.

I noticed there is some skipped parts though, which I assume is things that were resolved but not reported back.

I am now in the same situation where if I try to dial my FNB number, it goes straight to the "The user at 087.. is not available" and get the lines in the console saying:
== Using SIP RTP TOS bits 184
== Using SIP RTP CoS mark 5

May I ask how you resolved this? Was it trunk settings or the firewall?

Many Thanks
Nick

I get this from the console:

  == Using SIP RTP TOS bits 184
  == Using SIP RTP CoS mark 5

According to some sites it could be the codec or the port forwarding... I installed the licensed g729 which now works for outbound calls..

I also forwarded the ports, udp 10000:10500 and udp 4569, but still no change..

Hi,

I am also in the same process of setting up Elastix with FNB Connect and now stuck in this same position where the phones don't ring.

It looks like as I read down the thread, you were able to solve this. May I ask how you got incoming calls to come in through FNB Connect?

Many Thanks
Nick

Hi... I still haven't resolved these issues

I have 2 or 3 sip extensions setup, and purchased only 1 g729 codec license, maybe if i remove the other sip extensions and just leave 1 it might work..

I've been a bit lazy and haven't worked on my pbx for some time now.. Other issues I have is that there is still a delay on the Incoming call, the caller hears the phone ringing about 3 times, then only does it start to ring on my side..

Another issue I have is that I cannot transfer external calls to any of my extensions... So if I pickup a call on extension '1' I can't transfer the call to any other extension..

I've since switched back to the old system as I had new cables installed for my elastix pbx, and currently just using the elastix pbx for internal calls..

Oh hectic

Perhaps then someone can assist both of us then

I am also about to contact FNB Connect whether they can assist, especially since last month they have started to offer a business package.

Looks like we both stuck on the trunk incoming settings, not the incoming ROUTE which I believe to be different?

Some blog mentioned "you need a 'default' context for incoming when using FNB" but don't know what exactly he means by that.

Dataphone/ICTGlobe

Has anyone used Elastix/Asterisk with VoIP provider Dataphone from ICTGlobe (South Africa)?

I can make calls out to cell phone numbers. Sometimes to Telkom numbers, but never to 0800 or 0860 numbers.
I would like to route all outgoing calls through my VoIP provider.

Incoming call do work from my VoIP provider.

Thanks

Ok kinda OT, but all of a sudden none of my trunks are showing in the fop.
I have done nothing to the pbx in the last bit, tho I have considered upgrading to the latest Elastix from 1.6.

For all my searching none of the solutions I have found work. I would go ahead with the upgrade but apparently v2 has a similar problem.
Anyone have any ideas?

Hi

Did you come right with your setup.. It's almost a year now that my elastix box has been switched off... I want to sort it out so I can start using it...
