Dont use a rightclick CABvia Activesync type command, you need to copy the cab file on a SD card and run it from your device

does this work with 3G service...i know it mentioned that it does not work with edge

You need to buy a SIPURA unit to convert your analog home phone line to a SIP interface. Then you'll need to install an Asterisk SIP server.

Screw that... analog modem FTW. Good idea on the * though.

Hi,

I have tried cabarc and created the cab file, but when I install, my Wizard says: cab file installation was unsuccessful. I tried the original txt file and the result is the same. Any thoughts?

You can do this in several ways...I'm responding here as its SIP related, but we might want to a start a new topic to prevent cluttering this thread.

My focus here is for a working solution with Asterisk - note, Asterisk is not just a SIP proxy its a full PBX, it will handle TDM, SIP, SCCP, AIX and MGCP. Best way of running Asterisk for a novice is probably Asterisk@Home (its based on CentOs I believe). So it depends on what you want to do - see definition of FXO vs FXS.

1. Use an external ATA that converts POTS -> RJ45. Most of these are "locked" to a service provider such as Vonage. Some are available unlocked. They typically come with 2xFXS (provides dialtone versus FXO that expects a dialtone)

These products are aimed at plugging a convention phone into them and connecting direct to a VoIP service provider - in this case Asterisk (if the unit is unlocked)

2. If you simply want Asterisk to answer a POTS line, a TDM100P card (or clone) will do the trick. Its a glorified Intel V90 modem that acts as a single port FXO was was re-badged. Its no longer sold by Digium but range in price on eBay from $16-$30 depending on how "cloned" it is.

3. Preferred solution (also the most expensieve) is to use a TDM400P. You can then populate it with upto 4 x FXS or FXO modules to suite your needs. Expect to pay $140 - $350 depending on how many FXS/FXO's you add.

We need the Holy Grail here though: VoIP over the 3G connection. I thought eliminating "Cell" from restrictions in ipdialplan.xml would do it but no joy

Try using bttoogle.exe then you can manually switch every sound to headset - even music. But just mono.

BTW I have got still the problem with external speaker like others. Can someone who has it working on internal speaker upload their registry including VoIP settings to compare to us??

I tried using sjphone with orange 3g in london and the quality was no good, it has to do with latency I think and the latency on umts is not good enough although bandwidth is.
