asterisk users - Oct 2004 - Cannot send # to far end, asterisk intercepts.

Okay,  I know there have been previous posts about this, and there is the 
patch 110 on mantis that was never added to CVS.

If you have a mixed environment of SIP based phones and ATA adapters, how 
can you still allow the ATA style phones to use the transfer function, yet 
allow all dtmf to be passed on to the far end?

I thought the double # answer was a good one, but Mark brought up the fact 
that it's non-intuitive and if people can't figure out how to flash a 
phone, then they surely can't figure out the timing in pressing two #'s.

Has anyone figured out a solution to this, that isn't 'replace the
ATA's
with SIP phones'?

Many ATA's have a build in transfer feature. Most of them are probably
more complicated than the ## transfer however.

I know on my Sipura, I can hit flash, then hit *98 + number to do a
blind transfer, and it seems to work fine. Not exactly intuitive
however.
