Gtalk worked very well on my asterisk 1.8 installation for a few days. It was working yesterday morning but it stopped working in the evening without any change from my side. I could hear the rings but cannot reach the other side. Not sure what happened. The asterisk log shows:
NOTICE[672]: chan_gtalk.c:1942 gtalk_parser: Remote peer reported an error, trying to establish the call anyway
I changed the gtalk number that I was using but it still did not work. The numbers are fine if I made call from gmail web page.
Looks like others also have the same problem, e.g., dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic. … fc3364f7ed.
Ward from nerdvittles.com believe the problem is because google is policing constant connection from his PIAF. His solution is to only connect during the hours of phone call (pbxinaflash.com/forum/showpost.p … stcount=34).
Does plain asterisk 1.8 keep constant connection with gtalk? If it does, I think a better solution will be only make connection during the call. I don’t know if it is possible.
