On prem 3CX v18.

We have a persisstant issue with inbound calls which presents as 1 way audio. We do not use IVR / Digital receptionist so all calls are directed to a group, all members of group are local extensions running 3CX client. In simple terms, caller rings, we answer and hear them but they can't hear us. 30 seconds later we've all hung up and they try again, usually with success. This probably effects 30% of inbound calls. Outbound calls are fine.

Majority of our inbound calls are from regular callers and it's obvious that some callers never have an issue and some are almost guranteed to fail first attempt. The callers with issues are a mix of mobile and landline users.

Pcap shows the same (interesting?) results for both failed and sucessful calls which has been confirmed with VoiceFlex SIP provider.
"PBX is sending early media without sending 183 first".

So flow from pbx goes something like this.. (Invite) - 100 Trying -> 180 ringing -> RTP-> 200 OK

It would seem that the above flow is accepted or handled by some inbound provers but not others.

Indeed call recording and captures show that audio is making it out of the PBX, just earlier than caller is expecting it.

I have toggled Earlier Media on and off, no difference and I've never seen a 183 in any pcap performed on inbound calls.

Do a few test calls and check wireshark. You should notice that RTP comes after the 200

So just had the same caller test that was in previous example from yesterday...
Call was actaully successful, flow is below

Fingers crossed
 
So a few failed calls already today. Managed a pcap of the last one... we can hear caller but they can't hear us.

Back to Voiceflex then and see what they say now that early media is turned off.
 
VoiceFlex response (referring to last image posted)

The screenshot looks like a trace of a signaling screenshot, where we are unable to determine if the RTP was sent properly along with the signaling.

Would you be able to generate a media capture and send over the pcap to investigate further?
