mod_gsmopen, now with USB dongle support (SMSs and Voice calls to/from Cellular Networks)
Hello FreeSWITCHers, the new version of GSMopen is basically usable, and the docs at the wiki almost up to date (barring the details of the config file, you don't need them now :) ). Good news is that GSMopen now supports Huawei E1550 and compatible dongles, that are cheap (roughly $20 on Ebay) and reliable. Thanks to dongle's pcm serial streaming via USB, no more need for sound hacks, ALSA, or any sound subsystem (and cpu load). All is digital. It's reasonable to expect to be able to support many dozen concurrent calls per machine (dongles are USB 2.0 compliant). Works well right now on Linux and Windows, and would probably works on *BSD and OSX with minor tweaks. Code will be polished, refactured, rewritten, etc. But the thing is there. So, please update your source code to latest git, have a look at the wiki page, build mod_gsmopen, connect a dongle to your machine, and begin catching bugs and documentation inaccuracies. And asking for features for your use cases. Thanks to you all in advance, it's a pleasure and an honor to be part of this community. http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Gsmopen -giovanni -- Sincerely, Giovanni Maruzzelli Cell : +39-347-2665618

Look for "Huawei modem" on Ebay or similar sites. ZTE dongles are probably compatibles too. Anyway, if other brands or models have the basic USB interfaces (serial + audio) but requires different modem commands, I will add support to them.

Compatibility list (please add to this list, probably most dongles are compatible): Er, no. Compatibility depends on the chipset the dongle uses, rather than the actual model of the dongle. It seems some chipsets still do not support the audio USB endpoint which mod_gsmopen requires. A compatibility list will need to be draw up, model by model.

Hi Steve, thanks for the info! The models listed below are those that has been announced as compatible with E1550 by the chan_dongle project, that uses the serial and audio feature of the dongle in the same functional way as mod_gsmopen (albeit with completely different code and logic), so the models listed here are "kind of guaranteed" to work :). So, let's add to the list, model by model.

I've found somewhere that the E1550 is powered by a Qualcomm MSM6246, is it safe to assume that most(if not any) modems powered by the same chipset should work with mod_gsmopen? On Sat, Apr 21, 2012 at 11:02 AM, Giovanni Maruzzelli <gmaruzz@celliax.org>wrote:

Er, no. Compatibility depends on the chipset the dongle uses, rather than the actual model of the dongle. It seems some chipsets still do not support the audio USB endpoint which mod_gsmopen requires. A compatibility list will need to be draw up, model by model.
Hi Steve, thanks for the info!
The models listed below are those that has been announced as compatible with E1550 by the chan_dongle project, that uses the serial and audio feature of the dongle in the same functional way as mod_gsmopen (albeit with completely different code and logic), so the models listed here are "kind of guaranteed" to work :).
So, let's add to the list, model by model.
E1550 E1552 E169 E1692 E171 E173 E175X E1752C E1762 E180 K3520 K3715 K3765
Using more than one dongle ***REQUIRES*** the usage of an external powered USB hub (so it can feed power to the dongles, 500mA/.5W each one)

I've found somewhere that the E1550 is powered by a Qualcomm MSM6246, is it safe to assume that most(if not any) modems powered by the same chipset should work with mod_gsmopen?
Maybe yes, maybe not. Can be differences in firmware, or whatever. Testing them all will tell us. "The proof of the pudding is in the eating" Also, I forgot to add, be sure the dongle has the "voice" capability unlocked, or unlock it with dc-unlocker ( http://www.dc-unlocker.com/ ). -giovanni -- Sincerely, Giovanni Maruzzelli Cell : +39-347-2665618
Great news! FYI, I've got you scheduled for May 9th to come into the FS community conference call to discuss this subject. For those wanting to talk live to Giovanni about this subject be sure to order your E1550 dongles right away so that you can be a part of the discussion. -MC On Fri, Apr 20, 2012 at 8:58 AM, Giovanni Maruzzelli <gmaruzz@gmail.com>wrote:
Hello FreeSWITCHers,
the new version of GSMopen is basically usable, and the docs at the wiki almost up to date (barring the details of the config file, you don't need them now :) ).
Good news is that GSMopen now supports Huawei E1550 and compatible dongles, that are cheap (roughly $20 on Ebay) and reliable.
Thanks to dongle's pcm serial streaming via USB, no more need for sound hacks, ALSA, or any sound subsystem (and cpu load). All is digital.
It's reasonable to expect to be able to support many dozen concurrent calls per machine (dongles are USB 2.0 compliant).
Works well right now on Linux and Windows, and would probably works on *BSD and OSX with minor tweaks.
Code will be polished, refactured, rewritten, etc. But the thing is there.
So, please update your source code to latest git, have a look at the wiki page, build mod_gsmopen, connect a dongle to your machine, and begin catching bugs and documentation inaccuracies. And asking for features for your use cases.
Thanks to you all in advance, it's a pleasure and an honor to be part of this community.
