This is a long and boring video walking through the setup process for configuring an HT503 to work with a Raspberry PI running Asterisk FreePBX. The was prepared for Amateur radio operators.
You, my man are a life saver.. I've spent hours and hours before finding this video and finally managed to configure my grandstream ht813.. great tutorial..
Thank you for making this; I've had a HT503 hooked up to my freepbx for a while for just messing around and while I could get incoming calls to work, I never could get outbound to work properly. This did the trick; thanks for burning a trail for the rest of us!
Your video helped immensely getting a Grandstream HT813 (the replacement for the discontinued HT503) working with a POTS line and my RasPBX. (I know what your AREDN is as I've got an FCC ARS license.) I'm simply coming in the FXO port to allow inbound calls to be answered on my PBX system - and it provdes caller ID in numerous other locations around my house. One added wrinkle is having a PSTN phone connected to the FXS port which now has an extension number and I'm still tweaking that to get it working exactly the way I'd like it to. Your setup with just the Grandstream GXP1625 doesn't need the FXS port. I've got two PSTN lines and will be adding the second one to another HT813. My setup isn't identical but yours got me close enough to get it running. Looked at FXO gateways and they're made for commercial/business PBX systems - and they're comparatively costly. Setup in the HT813 is not quite identical to the HT503 as there are more settings, but it parallels what you did quite closely. Passing this on to you if you need to work up another system like your AREDN and cannot find an HT503. The HT813 should do the job. BTW, I've got a GXP1625, GXP1628, and now a GXP1782, GXP1760W, and a GXP2170 all running on the RasPBX with four DIDs on a VoIP provider SIP. A second HT213 will unify all six phone numbers on my VoIP system and maintain the pair of PSTN lines with some PSTN 2-line phones and a FAX machine. Had to make certain the POTS trunk was the only one tied to the POTs line.
hello.. i plan to buy HT813. i'm using ONT modem and has RJ11 output to my analog phone. can i connect that RJ11 port on the ONT into FXO port on HT813 and using raspberry (asterisk) on same network to make a system where i can call or receive my landline number from smartphone using zoiper app? as u also using HT813, would u please give me your configuration?
Hello ! Thanks for the video. its full instructions served me very well and I managed to setup an HT813 in Freepbx, with outbound and inbound calls, and incoming id caller. Greetings from Colombia
Thanks Commsprepper for this great video. The only thing, outgoing calls was not working for me showing a "forbidden" message in Asterisk logs. I changed the "FXO Port->Stage Method (1/2)" to 1 as opposed to the default value and it started working fine.
Thanks for doing this. I was struggling to get my Grandstream HT802 to connect to FreePBX until I came across your config setting with the x.x.x.x:5160 for the SIP server instead of just the IP address.
I'm trying something similar to you with a HT802 and FreePBX but haven't had any luck getting it to work, any chance you can share your Grandstream Device Config settings?
crucial info: if using the ht813 make sure to toggle the FreePBX setting to yes inside Settings>>SIP settings 'Non-standard g726' otherwise it won't work!
This is a really great video and I hope to make use of it soon. I have been trying to do this very thing with a Linksys SPA3000 or a 3102 using the Issabel PBX software on a HP mini PC but have gotten nowhere after several weeks. Have you made a video using either of the Linksys ATAs?. I am now starting to set up a FreePBX system as it seems the most popular now and have watched the series from Chris of crosstalk solutions called FreePBX 101 v15 but I have gotten stuck on the firewall page at the moment.
Hi, i configured devices like you but when i call (outgoing) the ring after two times state change to connected and then nothing happen What should i do, please give help me
this setup can work for connecting landline port from ONT modem to FXO port in HT813? the goal is, my smartphone can be used to do a call or receive incoming call from my landline number using zoiper wherever i am?
Great video, I used to build Asterisk PBXs as part of my first IT job about 11 years ago, those were great instructions and the interface has improved a lot. This is a cool peace time idea, but without rule of law the IP to IP calling would be sufficent I would imagine? I mean you can use the PBX if you have a lot of phones in the system and want to make internal dialing easier and setup conference calls (OPs calling into CP), otherwise IP dialing would be sufficient. Any other thoughts on that I may be missing?
can you make your pi into a pstn auto dialer like those in a home alarm system without a voip account? i have an existing land line and wondering if i could use my pi to make calls via the land line if an alarm is triggered
@@Commsprepper I'm not the best with computers but I'm learning from you and others and from trying different things also. I had to program a wind turbine inverter over the phone with a laptop the other day. There's more to it then one thinks
i have setup done but i have Problems from the Grandstream HT813 Ata is always auto CallBack to my FreePBX with inbound extension, so anyone can help me fix this Problem please? Many thanks
If your calls are not going out is because you didn't put the stage method to 1 like me. Spent 3 days and finally noticed I had my stage method set to 2
Hey, I've been trying to find an "Elmer" for a long time to help me get into radio for self-sufficiency and prepping. I only talk to family on the phone anyway. Work coms is through SIP phone and equipment they provide. Can you help with that? My local radio clubs here are not very helpful. Not many old school guys left. I know a bit about tubes and can build basic amps with them, but I really want to learn more about radios hobby wise but also setting up a legal licensed short wave...I've got CBs but that is a whole different issue there.
I followed this to set up an HT-813 and it works great other than the number passed with an incoming call. I always get the dialed number, not the calling number. Any idea what could cause this?
Hi, I wrote you in one of your videos. I would like to get in touch directly with you. This videos is great for emergency, I'm ham radio and also member of the Chilean Red Cross , also electronic engineer but old-fashioned. Please help me to get you help. 73's
FXO Grandstream HT503 = RJ11 PORT My PBX server using RJ45 connect to WAN port, but PSTN using RJ45 connect to FXO with RJ11. so, can i using RJ45 to RJ11 converter ? that is still work?
