URGENT NEED HELP SETTING UP

[certainr]

Hi,
Im new on this. I need Help.
This is what I need: I have a analog line, that when people call I want for a digital desk to answer and say dial 1 for sales 2 for suppot etc.....When you dial for example 1 for sales the call will be routed to skype users. Is this possible?
I was reading I need a gateway to get the analog line to 3CX. What do I have to buy and how can I configure this to work?

Hi,
Yes, this can be done.
This is the same thing when having a hardware PSTN device.
For Example when you install a hardware PSTN device, first of all you set up a digital receptionist with the prompt desired ( for sales press 1 .... ) In the DR you can set up that if for example you select 1, when a call hits the DR and 1 is selected it goes to which you set before. e.g 1 connect to ext 100 / 999 / 700 and so on. Also you need to set up correctly the PSTN Device too. So when a call hits to the PSTN device it will forward the call to the DR and then to the extensions.

The same thing for Skype, create a DR with the prompt desired. Then create a port for skype gateway so it will register to the PBX. Open the PSTN devices in the PBX side and select Connect to DR with the DR you created.

Then open the interface of Sype gateway, use same ports as created in the PBX side. Create a user account for skype and run the gateway.

Please read this doc which will help you alot in how to configure skype gateway with 3CX PBX -
