Latest FreeSWITCH, PennyTel and Billion 5200N development

For a while now, I had not being using FreeSWITCH for my VoIP, but just logging into PennyTel directly with my Nokia E65. It worked OK, but the voice quality wasn’t as good as going through FreeSWITCH. A month ago my old ADSL router died, so I bought a Billion 5200N to replace it. Since [...]
