[asterisk-users] No reply to our critical packet

[Lincoln King-Cliby]

I had this issue with SIP Phones (Cisco 7961) to local voicemail; the issue was resolved by adding a 

Ringing() followed by 
Wait(1) 

before the VoicemailMain() in the dial plan... it seems like there should be a better way, and I feel it's rather crude to force the user to listen to a second of ringback before launching into voicemail, but it solved the problem for me (and yes, I did try just Ringing() with no wait with no such luck)  -- maybe it would work in your case with a SIP call as well? 

HTH,

Lincoln

Hi,

thanks for the quick reply.

This was what I checked first. Both firewalls let everything through.

Doesn't help, alas. Also, it works the same (disconnect after 20 seconds) both 
for Dial and Echo, regardless of presence of Answer.
