[asterisk-users] Dropped Call Problem -- Looking for ideas and a consultant.

[Steve Totaro]

This is an age old Asterisk (and general telephony) problem.  I can't blame
it all on Asterisk.

Never thought of the 5ess, filed in my memory bank as this is an age old
problem.

Too bad it happens with SIP providers and not just the little guys but XO
for instance.

I hear crackling.  Cell phones drop all the time.

On a bad day I get five dropped cell phone calls a day.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro
