I have an interesting problem. I am attempting to install a payphone utilizing a Cisco ATA-188. The payphone actually works, but there are some timing issues. What happens is you pick up the payphone and the ATA grabs a line and goes offhook. While you monkey with putting money in and dialing the number, you are eating up the time before you get the offhook reorder tones (or howler tones I think). If you can put the money in and dial real fast, it works!! I have been screwing with the ATA configs for days now and can't come up with a way to extend the timeout or to even disable it. Anyone have any suggestions or could recommend another method? FX ports may be an option, but they are pretty far from where these phones are going to go. As always, thanks for any input!! Mark
