[Freeswitch-users] Frequent Call Drops in Freeswitch conference call in GSM network

[Giovanni Maruzzelli]

Hello Deepika,

you must check your calls are up, and if they're down you call back again.

FreeSWITCH has provisions for calling out from the conference.

Obviously GSM lines, especially in rural areas, are prone to drop.

You can use SIP trunks like now (and you can check different prociders), or
you can buy GSM-SIP adapters (alibaba is your friend).

Good luck with your project, and let us know how it goes.
