I have customers who expect calls to go through just like good old ma-bell did –100% of the time barring natural disasters. You have to admit those guys set the bar pretty high for us.<br> <br>I was using Voip Innovations with decent success, but my users complain every 2 weeks or so and I send the trace to VI. The standard response is always “We have updated our route tables for that area.” I switched to Vitelity where I was assured they have redundant paths and this could never happen! I have only confirmed it happening twice in the last 3 weeks! Of course one of those was during the demo of the new service I had just installed for a new customer. <br> <br>So, I give up. My new approach is “VSPs cannot deliver consistent highly reliable service – work around it!”<br> <br>I know I want a dial plan that will check the bridge status and redial using a different gateway (VSP) if it failed (not busy or no answer – failure). I am pretty sure the best/easy approach is a JavaScript “dialer” script to handle this.<br> <br>I have looked in the wiki for such a sample. If it exists I have missed it. So rather than “re-inventing the wheel” I am reaching out to you all. Does anyone have a dialing script that checks for failure and redials on failure or just continues to voicemail on no answer? I will happily test and tweak it and add it to the wiki if you have something to get me started!!! If not I shall take the plunge and get started! My ideal solution will dial, play a message and redial on failure, maybe 2 or three times or play a failure message and email me on excess errors. I am leaning toward “Call congestion, rerouting. Please stand by” while the new bridge is being attempted.<br> <br>Thanks,<br>Sean</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"'><o:p></o:p></span></p><div class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"'><hr size=3 width="95%" align=center></span></div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Consolas'>_________________________________________________________________________<br>Professional FreeSWITCH Consulting Services:<br><a href="consulting@freeswitch.org">consulting@freeswitch.org</a><br><a href="http://www.freeswitchsolutions.com">http://www.freeswitchsolutions.com</a><br><br>FreeSWITCH-powered IP PBX: The CudaTel Communication Server<br><a href="http://www.cudatel.com">http://www.cudatel.com</a><br><br>Official FreeSWITCH Sites<br><a href="http://www.freeswitch.org">http://www.freeswitch.org</a><br><a href="http://wiki.freeswitch.org">http://wiki.freeswitch.org</a><br><a href="http://www.cluecon.com">http://www.cluecon.com</a><br><br>FreeSWITCH-users mailing list<br><a href="FreeSWITCH-users@lists.freeswitch.org">FreeSWITCH-users@lists.freeswitch.org</a><br><a href="http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/freeswitch-users">http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/freeswitch-users</a><br>UNSUBSCRIBE:<a href="http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/options/freeswitch-users">http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/options/freeswitch-users</a><br><a href="http://www.freeswitch.org">http://www.freeswitch.org</a></span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Consolas'><br></span><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"'>-- <br>Ken<br><u><span style='color:blue'><a href="http://www.FreeSWITCH.org">http://www.FreeSWITCH.org</a><br><a href="http://www.ClueCon.com">http://www.ClueCon.com</a><br><a href="http://www.OSTAG.org">http://www.OSTAG.org</a><br></span></u>irc.freenode.net #freeswitch</span><o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
