This isn't really a fix for the people missing calls, but one solution I found was to limit the amount of time a call rings for to a cell phone. If it doesn't answer in X seconds, then dial again. This isn't a perfect solution, but helps some.

We use Motorola v551's as "extensions" on our Asterisk system with a<br>homebrew find me/follow me dialplan. It works great except where coverage is<br>poor then of course the inbound call hits voicemail. This has nothing to do
<br>with Asterisk and everything to do with our cellular provider, but since you<br>guys are telephony pros I'd like to ask if anyone has had any good or bad<br>experience with gain boosters for cells from those snake oil stick on things
<br>all the way up to powered one-watt boosters. Ideally, I'd like a situation<br>where I replace the stock OEM antenna with something else for $10 and away I<br>go. I have a hundred guys with v551s that are pissed about missed calls, so
<br>any and all suggestions are welcome. tia<br>_______________________________________________<br>--Bandwidth and Colocation provided by <a href="http://Easynews.com">Easynews.com</a> --<br><br>Asterisk-Users mailing list
