OK, writing this one quickly in my lunch hour.

Configuring Asterisk - Part 2

9 October, 2008 (16:56) | Asterisk, Linux, OpenWRT, VOIP | By: loom

In Part 1 I looked at how to add extensions to an Asterisk configuration. If all went well, we have two extensions 1000 and 1001 which are able to dial each other and not much else

While this is incredibly exciting - for about 5 minutes - it isn’t actually very useful. In this article, I’ll be adding the first of two Trunks to Asterisk.

Configuring Asterisk - Part 1

Tools like Asterisk@HOME and FreePBX make the process of configuring an Asterisk box incredibly easy. They have pretty web-based user interfaces, downloadable modules, and generally just make things easy to do.

OpenWRT and Asterisk - my new PABX

To give you an idea of the size of the MR3201, her is a picture of one

dsc01726

Yes, that little box really is running a full-blown PABX

Anyway, enough of that, how to set it up

It begins…

20 July, 2007 (15:34) | Asterisk, Linux, VOIP | By: loom

Yesterday, I bought a Linksys PAP2T 2 port analogue telephone adapter. It is the beginning of my asterisk box.  Now to build the box itself.  at the moment, I’m planning to build it on a VM, since I imagine that 2 extensions and a couple of trunks can’t be that resource hungry. I’ll probably end up being proven wrong.
