[Asterisk-Users] best low-bandwidth strategy

Hi,
 
Given the following setup
 
Cisco (7960, G729) --> Asterisk --> IAX2(SPEEX)
 
It seems that asterisk cannot do the conversion (calls are rejected) even if i have G729 licenses
 
Is there a parameter in IAX.conf that allows this conversion.
 
PS
if the call originates from FXS, i.e. FXS->Asterisk->IAX2(SPEEX) asterisk seems happy to do the conversion.
 
Thanks

Hi,

To push voice through a long thin wan (dsl) there are two choices: 

(1) have the cisco's (7912G) talk g729a to each other (reinvite=yes), or

(2) have the cisco's talk to their local * in ulaw (reinvite=no), which
talk to each other through a more advanced low-bandwidth codec (ilbc or
speex)

which is best? (2) would have more latency, wouldn't it?

Did I miss a third option?

Thanks in advance for you insights,
