Hi,

    It's good to know that the list is very active! Talking about the DTMF signaling, some guys on the Asterisk list told me that they got it running here in Brazil using DTMF. When I tried to configure it on my asterisk, I had a lot of erros, sometimes the caller id worked but it had some digits in inverted positions (It sounds very strange). As my asterisk is in production, I have a limited time to try this kind of thing on it, I will do some tests with FS in a free machine here. João, I liked to know that are active br guys in this list, sure I will contact you to exchange some ideas.


Thank you very much.

Darío, thank you for remembering Khomp!


Antonio, I might be able to chime in here. The CallerID is probably not working in Brazil because we use a specific protocol called DTMF. Most US hard card developers have a hard time with that because the standard in the US is FSK (a different protocol). Khomp has DTMF signaling support for both FXO and FXS cards (meaning your regular analog phones with display can use "bina" as well).


Send me an email if you would like for more info. We support FreeSWITCH and Asterisk, for that matter.


Regards (Abraços),

Hello Antonio,

Your scenario is not uncommon. It may be that you have a particularly bad version of Asterisk. (A few releases were particularly problematic.) It could be that your hardware has issues. Or it could be that Asterisk may not be a good fit for your scenario.

FreeSWITCH can do basically all of what you are doing now. The only thing I would do is contact Sangoma and ask them about Digium FXO cards in Brazil. (Sangoma wrote the FreeTDM stack for FreeSWITCH, so they're the experts on the subject.)

If you are looking for a FreeSWITCH + GUI solution then you might want to check out FusionPBX or blue.box.

Hi,

       I Work at an ISP and we have an Asterisk PBX. Our PBX doesn't have
anything special, it just do the common things like auto attendant, CDR,
call transfer and such things. We have 2 digium FXO cards to connect to
the PSTN. The problem is that asterisk is not working very well,
sometimes some of the dahdi channels get stuck and we need to release it
through the asterisk console, the detection of callerid doesn't work (We
live in brazil, dtmf signaling), and other detais that if I list all of
them here it's going to take some time. I read a lot about asterisk and
its bad design, I think that it added a lot a features without worrying
about making stable implementations. My question is, can freeswitch
fully replace our Asterisk PBX? Or it's not its purpose?


Regards.
