obi110 and asterisk - no outgoing calls

(1/3) > >>

Hi,
Im trying to use the obi as a trunk on a trixbox server. incoming calls on the pots line come to the sip phones just fine, but when I try to make outgoing calls I hear two rings and it just stops. The asterisk CLI tells me the call has been answered but it has not. And there is still dial tone on the pots when I hear the ringing on the sip phone.

Also it was working alright until a few days ago when lightning hit our telephone line, and after the line was repaired, no outgoing calls could be made. It doesn't seem the obihai device was effected since incoming calls are still received and all lights appear normal.

RonR:
Can you make calls through the PSTN from the telephone connected to the OBi PHONE Port?  If so, the OBi LINE Port is probably not damaged.

How do you have the OBi configured to work with Tribox?

jfnichols:
I can make calls from the obi's phone port which has the PSTN as the primary line.

I followed mostly this guide (http://www.freepbx.org/book/export/html/12975) minus the google voice integration with separate dial prefixes for using the pstn and gv, since i just want to use the pstn.

When it worked before, for outgoing calls I would hear one ring which sounded very clear and the subsequent rings had a slight bit of static which I took to be the actual PSTN rings. Its seems not to be getting to that stage now.

When I change the "DetectOutboundConnectMethod" in the obihai LINE port settings from none to detect polarity reversal or speech, outgoing calls on the sip phones just keep ringing until I hang up and picking up a regular phone while it rings still gives a dial tone.

Hopefully some of that is helpful..

RonR:
If you can make calls from the OBi phone, there's no need to start changing PSTN settings like "DetectOutboundConnectMethod".

What are you showing in the OBi's Call History on the failed calls from Tribox?

Due to a bug in the OBi firmware, make sure you don't have Do Not Disturb (*78) or Call Forward All (*72) enabled.  If either of these features is used, all InboundCallRoute processing stops on the SP1, SP2, and LINE Port trunks, breaking the OBi's ability to use techniques such as those you're employing here.  Even though correcting the problem is extremely simple, I've been informed by Obihai they will not be fixing this bug.

jfnichols:
The outgoing calls are showing in the obihai call history, like this:
Code:

Terminal ID SP2                  LINE1
Peer Name        <my pots #>
Peer Number <my pots #> <dialed number>
Direction         Inbound         Outbound
15:38:50         Ringing
15:38:57                        Call Connected
15:39:05         End Call


When you refer to the bug with do not distrurb and call forward all, do you mean these as options from asterisk that the obihai does not handle? I have not been using these options in asterisk btw.
