I'm trying to send an SMS directly from asterisk but it doesn't seem to be working. The SMS() function does create an outgoing file but doesn't deliver the SMS. Can anyone help me to understand how SMS() works. Thanks.<br>
<br>
extensions.conf example:<br>
<br>
same => n,SMS(hello,a,<a href="tel:17654307001" value="+17654307001" target="_blank">17654307001</a>,"hello nick")<br>
<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Let's start out by figuring out what hardware you have. Is Asterisk connected to the PSTN? What is physically delivering the SMS to the carriers?</div><div><br></div><div>
Also, when I run `core show application SMS` it talks about some software called smsq. Are you running that software?</div></div><div><br></div></div></div></div></div></blockquote></div>Thanks for the help. Right now I'm running asterisk on a raspberry pi using a phone number from flowroute. Is using a company like flowroute the same as connecting to the PSTN? Also i've tried to install smsq but I couldn't find any good documentation to get it setup properly. So no, I'm not using smsq.<div>
<br></div></div></blockquote><div> </div></div>I'm not well informed, but it appears that you need to (at a minimum) provide some sort of interface to connect to a hardware interface for this process. Google "ETSI ES 201 912".</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">Having looked at Flowroute, they don't appear to mention SMS anywhere on their website, so I am going to go out on a limb and say that they will not provide what you need to send an SMS.<br>
