It is in a database or CNAM dip. You just need to contact your provider and tell them to have it changed. What you send is moot on the PSTN. Also call 911 and make sure they have the correct address and information on file. I do it all the time for liability reasons, just make sure you tell them right off that bat that there is no emergency and you want to verify what they have in their database is correct. I have never had a problem doing this and try to do it in front of the big boss to show them it is correct and that I am thorough and looking out for them. -- Thanks, Steve Totaro +18887771888 (Toll Free) +12409381212 (Cell) +12024369784 (Skype) _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
