Hey everyone, I'm new to asterisk but eager to learn. So here's my scenario. I have an asterisk box with two digium x100p cards. I have a POTS line connected to one of them. Basically my goal is to have someone call into the incoming POTS line and be presented with a menu where they would select an extension that would automatically connect them to my cell phone. I have two phone lines and too FXO cards, but I understand that it can be done with one line and one card using the three-way calling feature. I have the menu system setup and it works well with the exception of transferring or forwarding the call to my cell phone. The most success that I've had is using the DTMF command and manually dialing the number. My phone rings, but asterisk hangs up before I can answer it. I could set a timeout on it, but it would disconnect the call after that time even if I was still on the phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is a snipplet of my extensions.conf file for what it's worth: exten => 1,1,Playback(pbx-transfer) ;*****PRESS 1 TO MAKE AN APPOITMENT exten => 1,2,Goto,cellphone|s|1 [cellphone] exten => s,1,Flash exten => s,2,Dial,Zap/2/9729796243 exten => s,4,Congestion Paul -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

If you do the same thing on a regular phone, the scenario would be this : 1- you are connected with the remote person 2- you hit Flash and get a dialtone 3- you dial the number you want to reach and get connected 4- you hangup the line and both remote are connected to eachother so you need to change your dialplan like this [cellphone] exten => s,1,Flash exten => s,2,Dial,Zap/2/9729796243 exten => s,3,Hangup I never used this so maybe I miss a step, maybe you have to flash again before you do the hangup. Can't test it as I don't have 3-way calling on my phoneline b.t.w.: You had a wrong sequence in there, 1-2-4... missing the 3 hth
