I was alerted the other day by of all people, my mom, that she wasn't hearing a "ring" when she dialed my number. Puzzled, I tried calling myself. The call connects, but there's dead silence until voicemail picks up. Calling internally, extensions worked perfectly. So, I figured, "another damned Broadvoice issue." For kicks, I upgraded to 1.2.6 today, and the end result is the same. So, I went to the dialplan playground, and removed a few lines for testing. It turns out that if I playback a file before ringing an extension, ringing works fine. Without, dead silence. Any ideas? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I use BroadVoice also and I used to have the exact same problem but putting Answer() as the first step in the context before playing my menu solved the problem. -Chris -- Chris Shaw IT Manager Precision Pump, Inc 150 N Main St Banks, OR 97106 Phone: 503-324-2361 Fax: 503-324-2203 E-Mail: chriss@precisionpump.net

After that, Asterisk will generate the ringing internally in audio instead of sending an indication signal Seems like there is a signalling problem so that Asterisk does not get a ringing indication from the device that we ring before moving to voicemail, or that Broadvoice does not get the ringing indication we send to them. /O --- * Olle E.
