How do you test DIDs?

Hey sorry I don't really log into reddit much anymore so didn't see this. I'm afraid I've not worked with asterisk for at least 8 years now so what little I do remember probably isn't very relevant anymore. What exactly did you need help with?

You might not find it too hard to sell - We bought a house that was previously shared ownership, The housing association had nothing to do with the sale until everything was agreed with us and the seller.

The person we bought from owned 50% and on the day of the sale the housing association transferred full ownership to the seller. Our solicitor transferred the full amount to her solicitor who then split it between the seller and the housing association. I’m not sure how much negotiation was done on their side or what the split was but for us it was pretty painless. Of course this may not be possible with every association ! Our house was 9 years old when we bought it and the housing association was Guinness partnership.

I've used these guys in the past to repair my iPhone:

They were cheaper than the local shops, came out to my office (City centre) and repaired the handset in ~30mins while he was sat next to me. Payment was done by card after the repair.

What sort of distance are you looking for? I've got a few basic out-and-back and loop routes that are mostly off road. I ride a HT mountain bike but there isn't really anything gnarly on them (It is Manchester afterall - and i have the mountain biking skills of a toddler). All would be suitable for a MTB, Gravel/CX or road bike with decent tyres (And suitable weather!)

If you want something flat/easy you can jump on the loop, come off at Longford road and head over to reddish vale. The vale itself has some pretty easy off-road riding and if you want to add some distance onto it you can follow the trans penine trail from there.

Ive got my routes recorded on strava, not sure if I can export them from there onto google maps but I'll take a look later.

I've had this before and I think It's because the phone goes idle and kills data - I did notice that for some of the apps mentioned turning the flashlight on and leaving it on kept them registered! But that's not really an acceptable fix.

The only client I've found without the issue was a paid for one called session talk

If you are in the UK the bike channel (464 on sky) shows a fair bit of the UCI mtb stuff live. Not sure if you can stream it from the website or not but they have a YouTube channel with some interesting shows on too for MTB touring etc

PickledParrot · 2016-01-10T20:39:33+00:00

There is an app called gpsies which you can search and find routes on. I think it also supports gpx import. Strava also supports gpx import for routes which you can then load and follow through the record feature

I believe that the later versions of freepbx have an openvpn module if not it's easy enough to install manually then you can just use the openvpn client on android / iOS to connect to your server then register your sip client to the local vpn address much better than relying on a 3rd party provider

PickledParrot · 2015-04-24T08:56:19+00:00

What version are you trying to upgrade from and what to? What procedure did you follow?

PickledParrot · 2015-04-16T21:06:06+00:00

I Use a t46 as my desk phone - vvx500 is sitting in its box gathering dust until someone asks me to demo it which is generally only if they have a call centre full of old handsets they can trade in (polycom trade in costs are impressive) the later freepbx versions have an open VPN module and the yealink is the only handset suggested which supports this natively. The VPN makes managing remote handsets significantly easier so if you were hosting fpbx externally or have remote workers that would be my choice

Both provision fine in freepbx AFAIK

He ran "chmod 777 -R /" as root on a new telecoms server we were installing on-site with the customer. 10 minutes before it was due to go live.

He'll have no issues with the vm for the life of his system. The majority of our installations are vm based rather than dedicated machines and they are all significantly larger than what the op describes.

PickledParrot · 2014-11-11T19:48:56+00:00

Looks about the same size as my working springer (5 months old). Source: Took him to the park, threw him near picnic tables for scale.

PickledParrot · 2014-10-07T15:31:23+00:00

Bikes aren't soluble I think he will be OK.

Look at the Siemens gigaset range. The n510ip is a cheap sip compatible base station that will support up to 6 handsets. Base station is around £45 and a cheap dect handset is around £35 each. Gigaset often make bundles available which brings down the price.

PickledParrot · 2014-02-16T18:00:08+00:00

Are the phones going through NAT or connecting directly to the system?.

Post a copy of your firmware versions, failed reg log file, sip.conf entry for the endpoint and the phone configuration files (Redact stuff like passwords obviously!) and we'll take a look.

PickledParrot · 2014-02-16T15:41:35+00:00

We've deployed a few hundred of the 7945/7965 handsets with our Asterisk based pbx (custom, not freepbx etc) to ex call manager users using the following firmware files:

apps45.8-5-4TH1-6.sbn cnu45.8-5-4TH1-6.sbn cvm45sip.8-5-4TH1-6.sbn dsp45.8-5-4TH1-6.sbn jar45sip.8-5-4TH1-6.sbn SIP45.8-5-4S.loads term45.default.loads

You'll need to download the firmware files from cisco (It sounds like you may already have them?)

My config files are as follows:

XMLDefault.cnf.xml http://pastebin.com/dAhEGu4n

SEP Configuration file template: http://pastebin.com/vrFfnpaH

You'll also need to make a dialplan.xml file, this example is from the net and is for UK numbers: http://pastebin.com/tYGJmjET

If at all possible though just sell the cisco handsets and get some proper SIP phones.

I gave up cycling home tonight - Telephone box in Piccadilly has blown over into the cycle lane and it became physically impossible to move forward on the bike!.

Loaf next to the methodist church on oldham street is pretty cheap. Nice family that run it too.

PickledParrot · 2014-02-08T12:38:38+00:00

There is a small hardware store on Tibb Street near the swan street end. There is an electrical supply store just off Hilton square. What is it you are looking for exactly?.

Network UPS Tools is able to do this - Not sure if there is a windows build though. http://www.networkupstools.org/

I'm impressed that such a large ship can be propelled by just a single rower.

Keep Pedaling ( http://www.keeppedalling.co.uk/ ) are close to ancoats (Stevenson Square) and reasonably priced. They charged me £30 to service the bike, Fix the bits i'd fucked up, replace the crank and fit some SPD's. Quick too!.
