Hey Guys

I've got a weird thing happening with my clients VOIP phone system and also my own.
The first 3-6 seconds of the phone call is really quiet for the callers end.

I did a search through the 3CX forums and FAQ's but couldn't find anything related to "quiet phone calls". Maybe I didn't type the write search query! hehe

Here's the setup:
My clients is running 3CX using VOIP and cabled Yealink SIP-T26P phones. I'm looking to upgrade to the latest 3CX with them, but I have to update the firmware on their phones first.
I'm running 3CX using PABX and Siemens Gigaset C470IP wireless phones.

Would anyone know what could be causing this issue? Is it a gain or a codec issue? Where should I look first to start diagnosing the issue?

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Kind Regards
Aaron
 
I think that your issue is not codecs (it would not work at all). Are you using sip trunk or some pstn gateway? You can start the wireshark on the 3cx and see at the beginning of the call is there RTP or it came few seconds later. Also check firewall checker in 3cx
 
Hey mixig

Thanks for your reply :)

I'll test it on my own network first. I'm using a PSTN gateway here.
I tried to take a wireshark trace today but both phone calls came in normally! so I'll try again tomorrow :)

here is the firewall test results from 3CX. What do you think?
(i took a small capture as the rest of the ports 9xxx had the same result)
