[asterisk-users] FritzBox 7270

[Manoj Panicker - FOES]

Hans and all
	My apologies for the delayed response, was not in town. Many
thanks for the attempt to help so far. Much appreciated
All I want todo is use Fritz as a gateway between my Asterisk and PSTN
lines. Remember I don't have any PCI based ATA card.

It is the case 2 I require as the VOIP can be handled by Asterisk
itself. I did configure fritz to be a SIP client for Asterisk thereby
establishing capability to call from any of the Astrisk client phones to
call any analog or DECT phones attached to Fritz. But I don't know how
do I get to call an outside PSTN number using this integration.

However I can always call any one pre-configured PSTN number using the
call forwarding feature, however I should be able to use my sogtphone
and dial a PSTN number using the integration which is not happening
today.

Hope this explais

Thanks
Manoj

Well, to avoid further confusion, lets check with the O.P. ;-)

So Manoj, which case were you refering to:

case-1:
Incoming VOIP-calls are answered by Fritz, and then forwarded to your
own Asterisk.
(And for outgoing calls, Asterisk uses Fritz as an VOIP-gateway)

case-2
Incoming PSTN/ISDN are answered by Fritz, and then forwarded to your own
Asterisk.
Incoming VOIP-calls are answered by your own Asterisk.


In case-1, Fritz has an ordinairy DSL-modem, and on the lan-side there
is an VOIP-pbx, and a FXS interface for a local phone.

In case-2 Fritz has on the PSTN/ISDN-line an ordinairy DSL-modem, But
also a FXO interface. While on the lan-side there is an VOIP-pbx, and a
FXS interface for a local phone.


AFAICS, case-1 is do-able, but you don't gain anything with it.
case-2 would give you two places for incoming calls (voip & PSTN) But i
wonder if the HW would allow that (no fxo)

If case-2 is feasable, i'll dash-off for an 7270....
