Simple test setup, cannot make outgoing calls

[jsalton]

Hello,

Please help. Have burned many hours on this and can't find anything in the forum, manual or technical manual.

Outbound calls fail as shown below.

I tried to get it working on a vmware xp machine but that had the same problem. It is now running on a proper Win 2003 SBS box and has the same problem.

I am forwarding ports 5060 and 9000-9015 UDP to 192.168.1.108, the 3CX boxes IP. All firewall tests work and the Stun server contact seems happy.

I have one outbound call rule. Calls to numbers starting with 0, and Route 1: Pennytel. Strip digits: 1 The digit stripping seems to work according to the log below.

Can anyone help me get started please? I am sure that this is a basic, simple setup issue. There are only 2 extensions and one Pennytel VoIP line. It couldn't get simpler.

Thanks,

Jonathan

Can you setup any of your phone to connect directly to VoIP provider and try to make outgoing call?

 

[jsalton]

Yes, am using 2 SPA941s. I have one line setup to dial directly using Pennytel, and it works fine. Also, I can call extension to extension. Pennytel shows that they have the 3CX pbx registered.

Do you have some outbound proxy settings in 3CX for Pennytel?

 

[jsalton]

Archie,

I have the following VoIP provider. Not sure if it is right or not:

Registrar/Proxy Hostname or IP: sip.pennytel.com port:5060
Outbound Proxy Hostname or IP: sip.pennytel.com port:5060

It actually started working at one stage, but took ages to connect a call. I test again now, 48 hours later and it has stopped working again incoming and outgoing calls with no change to setup.

Thanks,

Jonathan

Try to remove outbound proxy settings

 

[jsalton]

I removed the URL and port from the proxy setting and the line registration was lost. Pennytel reported offline and the line status indicator in 3CX server status page went to red.

I am just about to fire up pennytel, is this resolved or is this still an issue?

Pennytel works fine for me also. Never had a problem. Nothing special required to set it up in my experience. Happy to share details with anyone needing them.

If I recall, doesn't 3CX default to a greater range of ports than just 9000 to 9015? I thought it went higher unless you manually set it to restrict the ports to only use up to 9015. What happens on an incoming call, does the system log show the call? Are you seeing logs indicating that 3CX is registering properly with the VoIP provider when you first boot up?
