The number is not answering - solved

I had the problem when calling mobile phones in certain countries, that it took a lot time before answering, and finally after it was ringing two times, a2b answered "The number is not answering ...".

I solved that riddle by increasing the ringing time-out value in a2billing.conf:

Code:

dialcommand_param="|90|HL(%timeout%:61000:30000)"

So with the above modification, it would allow 90 seconds to ring (instead of 30, which is the default) before dropping the line.

I thought, others might have experienced such problem and therefore I am posting it here for info.
(Even though I could have posted it under "Success Stories" :wink:

)

I point it to 90 seconds too, always on fresh installs.
My recommendations to do that to all. Much better result.

The reason for it taking so long to get the ringback is due to your carrier. The better carrier you have, closer to tier one, in general - the quicker the ringback. The faster the ringback, the faster users can get connected and the more traffic you can push. Not to mention happier customers.
