Running FreeSWITCH on softmodem
Hello, I'm pretty new to the whole idea of using Linux as telephone central . I tried to setup Asterisk at first but failed. Although I have managed to install it I was unable to "call my computer". That's why I was hoping to deal with FreeSWITCH better. Please tell a noob like myself how to make this finally work. Keep in mind that something that is clear to you to me is probably a dark magic. For instance in installation guide there are mentioned few different ways to connect to a modem. Which method should I use if it comes to my modem : $ lspci -d 8086:24c6 -vvv 00:1f.6 Modem: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Modem Controller (rev 03) (prog-if 00 [Generic]) Subsystem: Toshiba America Info Systems Device 0001 Control: I/O+ Mem- BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx- Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium
TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx- Latency: 0 Interrupt: pin B routed to IRQ 4 Region 0: I/O ports at 2400 [size=256] Region 1: I/O ports at 2000 [size=128] Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2 Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1- D2- AuxCurrent=375mA PME(D0+,D1-,D2-,D3hot+,D3cold+) Status: D0 NoSoftRst- PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME- Kernel driver in use: Intel ICH Modem
Thanks in advance
Unfortunately most softmodems are not supported as a Telephony interface... The problem is lack of drivers. The simple answer is it wont work... You're best bet is to get an ATA with both FXO and FXS ports and connect via SIP... On 1/24/12 4:15 AM, "Sebastian Tarach" <starach@gmail.com> wrote:

Don't even bother getting a x100p or it's clones either. It's been reported to work very poorly as an fxo. If you dug deeper you'll find that it's really a softmodem by Intel. On 2012-01-24 9:02 AM, "Ken Rice" <krice@freeswitch.org> wrote:

Yeah, seen a lot of fake x100ps on eBay too so steer clear of that place too. On 2012-01-24 9:49 AM, "Ken Rice" <krice@freeswitch.org> wrote:

FreeSWITCH doesn't need softmodem unlike Asterisk where an X100P (or a Digium card) is needed as a timing device. On Tue, Jan 24, 2012 at 6:15 PM, Sebastian Tarach <starach@gmail.com> wrote:

As others have said, the problem with softmodems is nobody has been motivated to produce drivers, even though it wouldn't be that hard in most cases. I think it would be especially hard to get people motivated to produce drivers for your ICH4 modem, as that's a pretty old chipset. Intel have moved from AC97 to the high definition audio scheme since then. I think that means any drivers for a modern chipset won't work for yours, and the modern chipsets are seldom plumbed to a modem port. Its all a bit of a dead end, really.

~I'm hoping I'm not doing something wrong by replying to this message. Sorry I'm using message boards and irc most of the time and not mailing lists. Well after installing sl-modem-daemon and modem-cmd I was able to call my mobile phone bo using command modem-cmd /dev/modem ATD9<mobile phone> - 9 tells my Panasonic KX-T61610B to use first outside line available. After a while I heard my mobile phone ringing. That's why I'm not really convinced that it won't work because it will lack the drivers. Well maybe FreeSWITCH needs some special drivers I don't know of. I probably should have said it before but my telephone line isn't plugged in directly into my modem. Its connected via Panasonic KX-T61610B. I'm planning on using some old junk as its well I wouldn't call it replacement. More like supplement because I want them to work side by side. Since abilities of that KX-... are really poor I want to put some old crappy computer with telephone modem inside next to it which will handle things like IVR. But before I will get to this I want to check if I'm not stupid enough to even set it up on my Toshiba Satellite M30 laptop which happens has a modem. I would like to explore all the possibilities before I will start investing money in something unnecessary or in something I can't handle. So despite the fact I was able to use it to call myself on cellphone are you really sure I won't be able to set it up this way?

There is a big difference between voice modem and data modem. Doing an ATD just dials via the data side. It doesn't mean that it will work for voice. You can't just get any old modem and run voice over it, it needs to be a modem with a DSP and then the appropriate drivers that can convert voice. You are better off buying an ATA and doing it that way. You can find used ATAs on ebay for $30 US or less. -----Original Message----- From: freeswitch-users-bounces@lists.freeswitch.org [mailto:freeswitch-users-bounces@lists.freeswitch.org] On Behalf Of Sebastian Tarach Sent: Tuesday, January 24, 2012 2:08 PM To: freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org Subject: Re: [Freeswitch-users] Running FreeSWITCH on softmodem ~I'm hoping I'm not doing something wrong by replying to this message. Sorry I'm using message boards and irc most of the time and not mailing lists. Well after installing sl-modem-daemon and modem-cmd I was able to call my mobile phone bo using command modem-cmd /dev/modem ATD9<mobile phone> - 9 tells my Panasonic KX-T61610B to use first outside line available. After a while I heard my mobile phone ringing. That's why I'm not really convinced that it won't work because it will lack the drivers. Well maybe FreeSWITCH needs some special drivers I don't know of. I probably should have said it before but my telephone line isn't plugged in directly into my modem. Its connected via Panasonic KX-T61610B. I'm planning on using some old junk as its well I wouldn't call it replacement. More like supplement because I want them to work side by side. Since abilities of that KX-... are really poor I want to put some old crappy computer with telephone modem inside next to it which will handle things like IVR. But before I will get to this I want to check if I'm not stupid enough to even set it up on my Toshiba Satellite M30 laptop which happens has a modem. I would like to explore all the possibilities before I will start investing money in something unnecessary or in something I can't handle. So despite the fact I was able to use it to call myself on cellphone are you really sure I won't be able to set it up this way?

The sl-modem-daemon runs the modem interface at 9600 samples/second. Most modem interfaces, when used for modem work, run at that sampling rate. It happens to simplify the modem's DSP a bit. So, you have a driver which can control your modem port, but you have two problems. One is the sampling rate is not the 8000 samples/second rate all the telephony systems works at. The second is the driver APIs are proprietary, and not like the APIs used to control mainstream telephony cards, like those made by Sangoma and Digium. The source code for the driver module of sl-modem is available. For some hardware you can find the information that will allow you to set the hardware to sample at 8000 samples/second. All the elements are available for building a driver that would be compatible with FreeSwitch (or Yate, or CallWeaver, or Asterisk, etc.). None exists today. If you have the time, skills and enthusiasm quite a few people might love to see such a driver. It used to be quite an interesting thing to have, as a lot of notebooks had similar modem ports. Now they are disappearing, its becoming less interesting every time the makers refresh their models. Steve
