HOW-TO: Setup Asterisk 1.8/gtalk on Dockstar/Debian

<< < (3/7) > >>

I used this how to to setup my dockstar twice. Every single time I get the jabber authentication error.
I checked and changed gv password, logged in using gv software.
I'm using asterisk 1.8.2.4

Wanted to update on the poor outgoing voice quality I was experiencing using my dockstar and gTalk. It turns out that it was my network that was using Clear internet service. When I moved everything over to my Suddenlink cable internet service, the outgoing voice quality was excellent. I can make VoIP SIP calls over the Clear network and they sound fine most of the time, however, Google Voice using gTalk must be more sensitive to higher latency and jitter. I wouldn't call the latency and jitter I experience over the Clear network excessive for VoIP, but it seems to upset gTalk. I could use the old pygooglevoice method of Google Voice over that network, and it was just fine. Hmmmmm?

This is really weird, I let it sit for a couple of days and all of the sudden gv it registered, I didn't change a thing.

I have just installed following the instruction in this forum and have a question about the outgoing CID. When I use GV to call my cellphone, the CID showed as "Unknown" but when I called a Vonage number, the Vonage phone can display the phone number correctly. This is strange. When I used the GV to call another GV number, it also showed Unknown too. Anyone has any idea why Vonage can view the phone number?

Hi there,

First of all, thanks for the good how-to. I have setup a debian box on dockstar and followed the guide above for asterisk. I was using DHCP and everything worked well. Just recently, I needed to change to a static IP since my new router cannot make an IP reservation for the dockstar. Then there is a problem and asterisk no longer works. I got the following errors:

*CLI> [Jan  1 00:09:47] ERROR[748]: res_jabber.c:3113 aji_initialize: JABBER ERROR: No DNS gmailusername for client to  talk.google.com

It seems the problem is with the DNS server. Could you tell me how to fix it? I have tried to add the router's IP to the /etc/resolv.conf but it did not solve the problem. Do I need to reinstall asterisk after changing from DHCP to static IP?

Thanks.
