Thanks Moy. <BR>
Is there any quick (and dirty) workaround I could apply now until this gets into production? (I could imagine changing the Clearback (0x0C) to Forced (0x00) in the code somewhere). We obviously are extremely affected and Telmex is (as usual) not really helpful in getting this solved from their end even though we have been putting pressure on them daily to get this issue solved.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks for your fantastic support as always!<BR>

Currently openr2 does not handle metering pulses with forced release but only with clear backward signal.

Some code changes are needed to handle metering pulses with forced release. I could possibly add them sometime in June (I will be doing some other Asterisk work then).

We have the problem that Telmex (mfcr2_variant=MX) is dropping outgoing calls because the E1 receives a 0x00 (Forced Release) and 20 to 30 ms afterwards is back to 0x04 (Connect) which causes a Protocol error and drops the call seeing that the R2 protocoll reacts with a Clear Forwrd and ends the call. This happens at random intervals anywhere from 5 sec to 3 minutes into the outgoing call. It is caused by something similar to the "metering pulse" which we are trying to eliminate by using the variable "mfcr2_metering_pulse_timeout=100" which is longer than the 30ms that the pulse usually takes but the effect stays the same with 'mfcr2_metering_pulse_timeout=-1' or 'mfcr2_metering_pulse_timeout=100' or 'mfcr2_metering_pulse_timeout=450'. It looks like openR2 does'nt do what this parameter sais it does.<BR>
<BR>
We have tested with Wanrouter v3.5.20, Dahdi 2.4.1.2, Asterisk 1.6.2.16.2 and 1.8.3.3, openR2 1.3.1.<BR>
<BR>
Can anyone tell us what we need to do to avoid the calls being hung up due to the 30ms change in state from 0x04 to 0x00 and back to 0x04??<BR>
