[Asterisk-Users] VoicePulse Issues

[Adam Robins]

I recently switched from BroadVoice to VoicePulse Connect on my Asterisk
box.  Too many Meetme quality complaints (whether real or perceived).

I had to make a choice to use IAX2 or SIP with VoicePulse.  I first
tried to go with SIP because I already had it working and all of our
devices are SIP.  Problem is that every time I turn my back, the
Asterisk registration with the VoicePulse SIP server times out.

So, I switched to IAX2.  Now, everything works fine 95% of the time . .
. but every once in a while, perhaps 5 seconds into a call or 20 minutes
into a call, the call will simply drop.  This occurs several times per
week with no observable pattern.  I have attached an excerpt from the
log file at the end of this message.

Has anyone else experienced this?  Know what is causing it?  Has anyone
gotten VoicePulse Connect to work with SIP?

Thanks,
Adam
