[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk with USB

[Joseph Tanner]

I believe it's just being recognized as a modem.  Feel free to try it
out, but I haven't seen anything describing how to accomplish what you
want with just a data cable (and I have searched).  Please prove me
wrong, I'd love to ditch the bluetooth dongle (already have too many
2.4GHz devices as it is, I think they're starting to cause
interference).

This is just going on gut instinct here, but if you're really
persistent, maybe you can use the data cable to send the dial
commands, and have some kind of adapter cable going from the 2.5" plug
you have, to a 3.5", put that into the line-in of a sound card, and
then configure asterisk to send the dial commands (to dial numbers,
hangup, anything that needs a key pressed on the phone) through usb
(should be able to access the tty device and issue commands there),
and use the soundcard for audio.  If I'm not mistaken, that's
basically what the dock-n-talk and cellsocket devices do.  You may run
into a few problems, but I "think" it'd work.
