Hi, I have a linksys spa3102 voip adapter. I've been trying to set it up with FreeSwitch and integrate my PSTN line. After repeated attempts I was getting nowhere when I finally looked at regional settings. I've tried various configs and am now reasonably sure that its an issue with regional settings.
I reset the spa3102 to default settings, and plugged in the PSTN phone line into fxo and an analong phone into fxs. There is no network cable connected and no sort of PBX involved. When I call my PSTN number, the phone at fxs does ring but a call is not being established. If I answer the phone, there is no call established and it disconnects in 2 sec. and I get a disconn tone, while the caller continues to hear the PSTN number ring. Same thing if the call goes unanswered. The PSTN line status on the spa3102 shows Last Call Disconn. reason: CPC Signal.
I think I am correct in assuming that there is no point in any further configuration attempts until I manage to get this call established first. Should this plug and play setup be working by default on every spa3102 if regional settings are correct? If that is the case then it mostly seems like an issue with regional settings. I looked at the voxilla forums and other places and tried whatever regional tone settings I could find for India. Nothing has worked so far.
When I bring in the PBX into the picture, I have no problem with my phone working as an sip extension doing everything that is configured just as any other softphone would do. The problem is with PSTN and I suspect its regional settings.
Where can I find the correct settings? If anybody has this device configured, please drop me a line.
Thanks

Is this box made for India? Tel. line signaling and supervision vary in each country.
I agree with your approach of testing - first get the PSTN connection working before diving into the VOIP functionality. Caveat, make sure such a setup is allowed in India. IIRC, a while back VOIP networks could not be connected to the PSTN network with the exception of lic. service providers.
I would suggest you contact the hardware vendor and/or participate in their forums - chances of solving your problem there is higher.

I hope you are aware that it is illigal in India to connect a voip box to a pstn line.

L&T settled for Rs.350 Cr. approx half the demanded sum, afaik.
so are you saying its illigal or allowed ?

in kannada 'illigal' would mean 'the girl is here'

illegal. Without a dot licence (even for a Closed User Group). L&T manged to show that it was a CUG, not a profiteering call router. Never mind that the DOT imo seems like a neat protection racket.
