[asterisk-users] Bugs??

[Mike Trest - Personal]

When similar problem occurred, I traced the issue to remote GSM 
gateway with poor protocol stack.
The asterisk was doing exactly what it was supposed to do.

The IMMEDIATE work around we used was to put maximum call timer into 
extensions.conf

         exten => s, 6,Set(TIMEOUT(absolute)=3660)

This  gives one hour+one minute.   With average call duration below 30 minutes
this worked quite well for our GSM traffic purposes.
You set to any value appropriate to your traffic.
