Sample dongle.conf and dialplan that works for me

[Robert Nediyakalaparambil]

Here are the samples. Please note that I patched chan dongle to get SMS with Alphanumeric CallerID to work, but that should not matter.

dongle.conf:

[general]

interval=15                        ; Number of seconds between trying to connect to devices

;------------------------------ JITTER BUFFER CONFIGURATION --------------------------

;jbenable = yes                        ; Enables the use of a jitterbuffer on the receiving side of a

                                ; Dongle channel. Defaults to "no". An enabled jitterbuffer will

                                ; be used only if the sending side can create and the receiving

                                ; side can not accept jitter. The Dongle channel can't accept jitter,

                                ; thus an enabled jitterbuffer on the receive Dongle side will always

                                ; be used if the sending side can create jitter.

;jbforce = no                        ; Forces the use of a jitterbuffer on the receive side of a Dongle

                                ; channel. Defaults to "no".

;jbmaxsize = 200                ; Max length of the jitterbuffer in milliseconds.

;jbresyncthreshold = 1000        ; Jump in the frame timestamps over which the jitterbuffer is

                                ; resynchronized. Useful to improve the quality of the voice, with

                                ; big jumps in/broken timestamps, usually sent from exotic devices

                                ; and programs. Defaults to 1000.

;jbimpl = fixed                        ; Jitterbuffer implementation, used on the receiving side of a Dongle

                                ; channel. Two implementations are currently available - "fixed"

                                ; (with size always equals to jbmaxsize) and "adaptive" (with

                                ; variable size, actually the new jb of IAX2). Defaults to fixed.

;jbtargetextra = 40                ; This option only affects the jb when 'jbimpl = adaptive' is set.

                                ; The option represents the number of milliseconds by which the new jitter buffer

                                ; will pad its size. the default is 40, so without modification, the new

                                ; jitter buffer will set its size to the jitter value plus 40 milliseconds.

                                ; increasing this value may help if your network normally has low jitter,

                                ; but occasionally has spikes.

;jblog = no                        ; Enables jitterbuffer frame logging. Defaults to "no".

data=/dev/ttyUSB2                ; tty port for AT commands;                 no default value

; or you can omit both audio and data together and use imei=123456789012345 and/or imsi=123456789012345

;  imei and imsi must contain exactly 15 digits !

;  imei/imsi discovery is available on Linux only

imei=<use your own>

imsi=<use your own>

; if audio and data set together with imei and/or imsi audio and data has precedence

;   you can use both imei and imsi together in this case exact match by imei and imsi required

Hello
I am using pbx in flash (freepbx). Where do i place this context for 'from-internal' in extentions_coustom.conf? I stuck last few month, please help me.
Do you get sms & ussd in ussd.text file only or get softphone side too?
