Hi All, Just a quick question, but I could really use some help on this one. I've got the CVS-Head of * installed and running, and am using a VoiceTronix OpenSwitch12 to connect to 12 analouge lines. I've got callerid activated by the Telco, and can get callerid using a std phone. However, using *, I always get an error 'Cannot decode callerid'. Does anyone know if I need to patch the vpb driver or something? Many many thanks, Ian Bonham P.S. the POTS I'm connected to is British Telecom's SystemX if thats any help? _________________________________________________________________ FREE pop-up blocking with the new MSN Toolbar - get it now! http://toolbar.msn.click-url.com/go/onm00200415ave/direct/01/

VOIP-info has a page here: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+and+UK+Caller+ID There are patches here for zaptel and asterisk: http://www.lusyn.com/asterisk/patches.html -- John
