@JaredBusch said in FreePBX update negated/erased an Asterisk Dial Code we had set?: @Dashrender said in FreePBX update negated/erased an Asterisk Dial Code we had set?: yes, this would drive my users insane. It is a setting. Turn it off. I wouldn't want it off whole sale. I could definitely do that for most users, but my phone does have a display large enough to tell me I have missed calls - and I call those people back, even if they didn't leave a message. More often than not it's beneficial to call them back and solve whatever problem they were having.

Of something to note, this same format works for iPhone text messages, but not Android. This isn't an ordeal for me (as most of our user base are iPhone users) but might be worth looking into further to figure out why it works for one but not the other.

@JaredBusch said in Incoming Call Issue: @VoIP_n00b said in Incoming Call Issue: Running FreePBX v14... No resent changes made, except to change the name on an extension. When some calls in, and let's say they dial 555 then end up getting 511, 511 can then forward the call to 555 no issue, but I have no idea what is causing this. Because they released a horrible fucking update to IVR. Edit your IVR and set strict dial time out to No - legacy That fixed it! Thank you so much!!!

We had the same problem with VitalPBX, and @ScottAlanMiller's suggestion, we made the Opus codec the highest priority and it resolved the issue for us. Maybe it is worth a try for you?

@Romo said in Issues with remote PJSIP extension: Same thing on Yealink SIP-T42S 66.84.0.80. I'm out of easy ideas. I've been on site at a location all day.

@scottalanmiller said in Webex vs. Microsoft Teams + FreePBX conference: @bnrstnr said in Webex vs. Microsoft Teams + FreePBX conference: One thing I didn't like about teams is that you have to install a client to attend the meeting, which is the same for Webex and just about every other major solution if I remember correctly. Zoho doesn't have a client either. All web based. Same as Rocket and NextCloud. They all use the WebRTC components in modern browsers.

@BraswellJay said in FreePBX : Skyetel inbound call "Rejecting unknown SIP connection ...": Go into your @Skyetel endpoint setting and make sure it is talking to your PBX on port 5160 also. This seems likely to be my issue then. I had left it at 5060 in the skyetel portal as you showed above and initially had it port forwarded to 5060 on the FreePBX. When I realized that I had set port 5060 up as the chan_sip port instead of the pjsip I changed the firewall to forward 5060 to 5160 on the FreePBX. I'll try making the change in the Skyetel portal directly to 5160 and just direct port forward 5160 in the morning. As @JaredBusch figured, this fixed my issue. Once I made this change I had two way audio and no call's being taken down prematurely. Audio issues are always port related. Though mostly because firewalls are fucking things up.

@cdbrush said in Setting up FreePBX to send a X-Tenant SIP header for Skyetel Tenant tracking: This is great. Thanks. What is this significance to the numbers within the "{OUTBOUND_ROUTE_NAME:0:4}" preceding the route name? That’s a substring. Look at the route name, starting at character zero and going for 4 characters.

Looks like the problem is with the CDR database. If I remove that from the backup (temporarily), the backup completes as normal.

@Dashrender said in FreePBX with Centurylink IQ SIP ...: CenturyLink/AT&T/Verizon, etc are all carriers AND ISPs But all, by law, and by physical necessity, MUST operate them as two different things. That one company owns two businesses is just common sense. That's not relevant, it's still bundling versus not bundling. And none of them pretend that they are combined, all of those sell them separately, proving the point.

The IT benefit to this entire thing is, by enabling this feature, IT will now have a backup of the configuration of all the phones. Even if a user changes a button. Now a phone can die and IT will simply change the MAC on the provisioning server and put the new phone on the desk. To the business, the benefit is to let users control their own buttons without IT getting involved. Buttons can easily be programmed by a user simply holding it down until the menu pops up. It takes very little instruction to teach users to pick Speed Dial or BLF and enter the number or extension. For most small shops, this doesn't matter in the first place. They rarely change anything. But for an organization over 20, it is very common to have users all needing different configurations on their phone buttons. Their Boss, their Queue Pause, their specific parking lots, etc.

@FATeknollogee said in Block Spam callers: @Skyetel Haha, ROFL. Lenny is a star!! This Jerry Jones isn't very bright! And I'm sure his name is really Jerry Jones. lol

@DustinB3403 said in FreePBX / Queue Login/out state on BLF key ...: Looks like your question was answered here from last year. https://community.freepbx.org/t/solved-queue-blf-hints/49665 Thanks, this did it. I had put an extra * between the toggle code and the extension. Which interestingly enough still worked to allow an agent to login/out but didn't work with the BLF hints apparently. Once I changed as per the link you referenced it worked as expected. For those that are interested I changed the BLF value in the EPM definition to : *45__line1Ext__*730 (no * between *45 and the extension number): Now a core show hints displays : *45250*[email protected]: Custom:QUEUE250*730 State:Idle Presence:not_set Watchers 1

@JaredBusch said in FreePBX Ring Group / Remove CID Name Prefix on Transfer ?: To my knowledge, there is nothing you can do to get rid of it without custom dial plan. This process simply prepends the text to the existing variable. Ok, Thanks.

@JaredBusch said in Unifi AP AC EDU with FreePBX ...: @Dashrender all of the IP phones I have worked with can handle multicast natively. That's good - I guess, and makes it even more weird that Ubiquiti didn't have their devices supporting it out of the gate.

@marcinozga said in FreePBX hardening ...: @IRJ The scenario described above doesn't look like automated attack, and it's rather unlikely bots would be exploiting PBX to make international calls. I think this is the first episode of the Darknet Diaries

Okay, if you want to talk storage, it's over here: https://mangolassi.it/topic/19657/revisiting-zfs-and-freenas-in-2019

The benefit (to me) of setting this up like this means that your inbound routing is all just 10 digit numbers.

@JaredBusch said in FreePBX / Yealink t42s / call park configuration best practice ...: The best use of parking is simply blind transfer via DSS key directly to a specific slot. No one wants to waste time and a button with a park key that you then need to wait for an announcement to know where the call went. That makes much more sense. I think I put the blinders on and focused too much on replicating the old system without thinking if there was a better way.

@black3dynamite said in FreePBX Desktop Video Conferencing Options: Have you already check with linphone if it does video conferencing? In theory it does. Linphone desktop has been pretty flaky for us so were looking at alternatives.

@BraswellJay said in FreePBX assign commercial module to installation?: @JaredBusch I think I figured this out. The thing I needed to do was to stop and then start FreePBX. I did : fwconsole stop fwconsole start When it started back I saw the following as part of the output : Updating License Information for xxxxxxxx where the x's were my deployment ID I'm thinking this must be where it went out and queried and saw I had purchased those two modules. Both SysAdmin Pro and the Endpoint Manager screens now look like your samples. Thanks for the help. One question. When you have purchased these through the GUI instead of the portal as I did do you normally have to restart or does it just figure that out and is immediately available? It is all handled in a reboot. I buy these during initial turn up time and as part of that, I will always perform a final reboot before begining the actual configuration. Because one of the turn up steps requires setting the timezone, and that is not applied fully until a reboot. Honestly, I simply assumed that you had already turned it on and off again. You could have used fwconsole restart or clicked the update activation in the web GUI also.

@Curtis said in Bria Mobile iOS and FreePBX: I tried a few hours with Bira this morning... Just a couple minutes ago I downloaded Acrobits Groundwire by Acrobits, and it instantly worked... https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/acrobits-groundwire/id378503081 That listing clearly states it uses push. So how does that work?

@scottalanmiller said in Setting up a Skyetel Trunk on FreePBX: Don't forget to set your Codec to G722. But always offer G711 We do our best to deliver calls over G722 and follow your preferred priority (based on what you put in your SIP), but when we can't get the call delivered over G722, we fall back to G711.

@BraswellJay said in FreePBX / Random loss of audio ...: When I get a chance this afternoon I may configure one and see if that at least resolves the issue, though I didn't think I needed STUN for this particular use case. So I haven't totally found root cause but it appears to be an issue with my windows profile on the machine I was running Linphone on. I installed Linphone app on my phone and everything worked perfectly. Installed desktop app on a spare laptop and everything worked perfectly. Logged in as different user on original machine and everything worked perfectly. Logged back in as myself on original machine and no go. I only need this for some testing. Once we get set up we'll be using Yealink phones so I may not look anymore since I can use my phone for the testing. Thanks to all for the help.

It's set to RFC4733 Both the Phone and Asterisk have settings for this. They need to match. They do, we checked that last night.

Awesome information about Backup & Restore and Filestore.
