[Asterisk-Users] Connecting SPA-300 to Asterisk

[Mike Benoit]

What I did was create an extension that goes to my "mainmenu", ie:

exten => 7000,1,Goto(mainmenu,s,2)

Then I setup the SPA-3000 to dial that extension when a call comes in
according to the FAQ entry on Sipura's website:
http://www.sipura.com/support/spa3000faq/Section_3.html#4

4:   How can I forward all PSTN callers to a VoIP number?
A: You can use specify a dial plan to be used by the default PSTN caller with 
   a hot line syntax: (S0<:voip_number>) where voip_number is replaced with 
   the actual phone number (or sip url) of the VoIP destination.

So I used: (S0<:7000>)

Works like a charm.

In my experience Sipura has an excellent product, I use both the SPA-
2000 and SPA-3000, and they are both great. 

I've had _far_ less problems with Sipura products then I have had with
Digium X100P cards. Especially when it comes to echo. Sipura's email
support is also exceptional, I often get replies to emails within
minutes, and they have even implemented feature requests and sent me a
beta firmware within days.
