Ring Tone
npr1:
Thanks for the explanation, things are becoming much clearer.
I take it there's no way to override the "early media" tone and replace it with the Obi's own ring back tone. ???
ianobi:
As far as I know, the default position with SIP devices is that if "early media" is available, then it will be used rather than the locally generated tones. I don't know of any OBi setting that will override early media.
If it's important to you, then you might want to look at some UK beta max providers. I use voipcheap.co.uk for calls from house phone to mobile as their mobile rates are good. They use early media, but supply standard UK tones. I believe their parent company is based in Europe as payments always seem to get converted into euros. For most other calls I use sipgate.co.uk - good value for standard outgoing "landline" calls and free incoming calls. Again they do use early media, but again supply standard UK tones.

I've been using voipcheap.co.uk for a couple of days now, still getting the non-UK ring back tone on some calls. Guess it's something I'll just have to live with.
ianobi:
This seems odd. is it possible to see any pattern as to what type of calls get UK tones and what type of calls do not get UK tones?
npr1:
Yes, I'm trying to identify a pattern. The problem with that is, it's my wife who's complaining to me about this and she's being unclear about which calls show the problem (she spend that long on a call she's forgotten about the ring tone when she finishes ::) ).
I'm mostly noticing non-UK ring tones to 3 mobile and Tesco mobile numbers, but it's not every call to the same number, some give UK ring tones some don't.
The non-UK tone is about 1 second brrr, 5 seconds silence repeating, if that helps identify the problem.
I was wondering if it's some sort of error tone, if it is though the call still goes through.
Is it worth setting up a syslog server, will that identify anything useful?
