    I had the same issue with Astra Phone today, Astra phone was enabled with all the codec, so I selected G711a(8K), G711a(16K) and G729, then its started working for me. Kindly update me the best settings to proceed with al other Astra SIP phones to be working with Linkus.

    Hi All, we have the same issue with calls from GXP2170 IP Phones. Will the fix work for call from GXP to Linkus ? I do notice that on some occasions the GXP will select PCMCA ( First Codec in List ) and then we get the Robot sound. If we dial back again within a minute or two it connected with iLBC and sound is fine.

     

    Wait another 5 mins and call again and it hits PCMCA again.
