Well, the ATA uses SIP to communicate with the * box. SIP by default doesn't generate a ringing indicator when the far side is ringing, you indeed DO have to tell it to ring, using the r flag in the extension.
**Note, this is just from my experience. -------------------------- Josh Roberson Indigent Networks 1.877.677.9647 x1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Steve Dolloff Sent: Thursday, October 09, 2003 3:17 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] No Ringing from PSTN That does make a ringing sound, but any idea what's causing the problem? Stephen Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] No Ringing from PSTN You can send a fake ring by using something like: exten => 1234,1,Dial(SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED],20,r) Assuming the ATA is in the sip.conf as [1234] However, this does NOT solve the underlying problem.
