[asterisk-users] Sender phone ringing while recipient talking
I've had asterisk running for about a month now between our PBX and our T1, and everything seems fine but for one simple nit-pick: When a call to the outside workd is made, and if the recipient picks up while a the sender's phone is still relaying the ring, the sender won't be heard until after the ring stops. This often translates a simple "hello?" into a "lo?" or even "*long pause* hello, is anyone there?" Is there a way to immediately stop the ring when a pickup is detected? Thanks, Nathan Bell

Are you using the option r in your Dial string? If so, remove it.

It creates an artificial ring and can be helpful when the telco or carrier does not provide ringing (which they should).
