Asterisk does not support silence suppression - you should configure the cleints not to suppress silence. Not sure if "keep alive" packets would do the trick.<br><br>Rob<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 22/03/06,

Hi there<br><br>I am using an IAX2 softphone built from the IaxClient library dialing into<br>Meetme conferences. The IaxClient seems to use silence suppression, and not<br>sure if this can be disabled. The client works fine through most routers,
<br>but for some it disconnects the client after about 5 minutes and gives this<br>error in the asterisk logs:<br><br>Chan_iax2.c:1480 attempt_transmit: Max retries exceeded to host <a href="http://146.18.3.5">146.18.3.5</a>
<br>on IAX2/bob@146.18.3.5:4569/3 (type = 2, subclass = 1024, ts=655380,<br>seqno=177).<br><br>My guess is that the timeout for UDP on the router is set to quite a low<br>value and it times out if there is no data sent from the client to the
<br>server for this amount of time. Would a solution be to send a packet of<br>silence every minute or so?<br><br>Many thanks<br><br>Steven Langley<br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>--Bandwidth and Colocation provided by
