Does anyone know if there is a way to get a DB or any other means to see if I can see if a call is coming from a cell phone or not. If I am able to see if it is cellular or not is there any way to see aprox. what area the phone is in (I know this wont be simple but would it work if I have an agreeement with the cell phone companies) ? This is for the US. Thanks. Dovid -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

[asterisk-users] Determine if Call is from a cellular phone
What exactly are you trying to do? YOu can determine where the number was assigned and if it was originally a cell phone easily and cheap....

[asterisk-users] Determine if Call is from a cellular phone
With LNP in the US, there really is no way to determine if the call originates from a landline, a VOIP line or a wireless line Most numbers are portable and even the NPA doesn't tell much any more. I have a wireless phone with a ( former ) landline number, and a VOIP line with a ( former ) wireless number. I have to wonder why you care.
