I have installed Asterisk@home 2.8 in CentOS with 2.8 Intel Pentium 4 and  
512 RAM.

I am using TDM400P with 1 FXO and 1 FXS.

I connected POTS to FXO and an analog phone to FXS. I have setup that  
only my mobile phone can call my POTS, and vice versa.

I was comparing two method tests.

## 1st method test

Without Asterisk and TDM400P involved. It was a regular analog phone  
called mobile, and vice versa.

Mobile called analog phone - analog phone rang after first rang on mobile.

Analog phone called mobile - analog phone rang after 5 seconds.

## 2nd method test

With Asterisk and TDM400P card involved. POTS plugged to FXO. Analog  
phone plugged to FXS.

Mobile called analog phone - analog phone rang between first and second  
rang on mobile.

Analog phone called mobile - I dialed my mobile number, then IVR played to prompted password. I entered password with #. After 8 seconds, I heard rings.

My question is how come 2nd method test, phone rang a little slower ? Is that a way to tweak it to be the same as in 1st method test ?

Thats sounds like the typical digit/exten timeout asterisk is doing.

I am not quite sure tho, where it sppears…since the IVR indicates (normally) that the dial was already initiated…

Mobilenumber dialing closed with a “#” ?

Any interessting CLI messages ?

Richard,

I don’t think # play a factor. I dialed the mobile number, then right away  
IVR prompted me to key in password.

I am very new to Asterisk@Home. How do I see CLI message ? Any thing  
to turn on to see the debug ?

open a terminal on the aah box and type  
asterisk -rvvvvv

Then you have a CLI (command line interface) of asterisk with a verbose level of 5.
