FreePBX newbie is looking for help: (FreePBX 2.5.0 / Asterisk 1.4.22)
Here is my office setup:
- one Polycom phone at extension 501
- A Nokia E51 GSM phone which has Wifi and SIP functionality at extension 598
If somebody calls my office number, a ring group with ‘ringall’ strategy will make both extension ring.
What I would like to achieve is automatic failover to the GSM phone for the 598 extension when I am outside Wifi coverage in the office.
I installed the “Misc Destinations” module and set up the GSM phone number as a destination.
I can set up the Nokia’s GSM phone number as a destination when there is no answer on the ring group that rings the two extensions above - but that means that when the Nokia E51 is outside of Wifi coverage, the Polycom phone will ring first, and then when nobody answers the call will go to the Nokia via GSM.
What I like to see, is that the Polycom phone and the Nokia phone (via GSM) ring concurrently when the Nokia is not in Wifi (SIP) coverage.
Is there any way to achieve this with FreePBX?
Many thanks,
Wolfgang
