[Asterisk-Users] Codecs and * pass through...

[clive at sentechsa.com]

Etienne, howzit

I am not 100% sure about this, but Net2phone do not always use 
standard SIP as the protocol. They have their own proprietry 
protocol as well, so perhaps your phone is trying to talk on the 
proprietry protocol.

For G723.1 passthrough, you just allow it, and it should work fine, as 
long as you do not try playing any voice prompts to the channel.

good luck.

Clive
