asterisk users - Feb 2012 - pstn bridge to asterisk - phones connected to pstn stop ringing when asterisk answers

Hi All,

I am using an Obi110 to bridge my PSTN line to Asterisk. Inbound and
outbound calls work fine, but I noticed that phones connected directly to
the PSTN line stop ringing as soon as Asterisk answers and rings one of my
extensions. I'd like the regular phones to continue ringing so I have the
option to use my multi-handset phone that is directly connected to the wall
if I'm not close to my VOIP extension.

Thanks,
Gaurav

Any chance of posting the relevant section of extensions.conf? If you do 
an Answer() in your dialplan, that would indeed answer the line and stop 
phones connected directly to PSTN from ringing further.

Im sure your incomming context starts with Answer() command. Remove it.
