Hello fellow nerds,
I have a beautiful newly configured PIAF Purple on RentPBX, and a network here in my office with about 8 different phones, all Cisco 7940's.
THE PROBLEM
Phone calls are connecting but audio is not going through. The worst problems are calls between phones in the office.
MORE INFO
We have AT&T DSL, with a Static IP address. Currently I am connecting to that with my trusty Linksys WRT-54GL router with Tomato Toastman firmware installed. Also currently, the DSL modem is set to Bridged mode and the router is directly connecting via PPPoE to the DSL network and receiving a Static IP address.
Now here's the Static IP information, sanitized for the web. In the following information, "z" refers to a top secret number.
Current Static IP: 108.224.z.102
According to AT&T, here is the rest of the Static IP information.
IP Address: 108.224.z.97
Subnet: 108.224.z.96
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.248
Default Gateway: 108.224.z.102
I ordered 8 static IP addresses, but as many as 3 might already be taken by the networking setup (1 for gateway, 1 for the first address, 1 for the last address)
WHAT I WANT TO DO
I want calls to go through! Preferably I would assign a separate static IP to at least 5 different phones, so they would be most reliable and always connect to the RentPBX server correctly (hardcoded).
Also acceptable would be having all the phones, and the whole office network, on the same static IP, and just fixing this issue. SIP DEBUG information is posted below.
Also acceptable would be having all the phones on one static IP and the rest of the office on another static IP.
The Tomato router has VLAN capability and we have all the phones going through a Cisco Catalyst 3500XL series, which I know has VLAN support as well. So that could be a possibility too.
Also acceptable would be utilizing the VPN tunneling feature built into the Tomato router software. It has an OpenVPN client that could connect to an OpenVPN server on the RentPBX server.
SIP DEBUG INFO
Attached to this post in Zipped TXT format. This is the debug info for a call from Extension 104 to Extension 102, with the top secret number for the internal network changed to "z" and the number for the RentPBX server changed to "y".
Thanks in advance for all your help and thank you Ward for your wonderful software!
