I've got a better idea. Stick the IVR system on a box with a wired telco connection. Not only will this make DTMF more reliable and the audio will be clearer which is useful when reading out lots of statistics, but it will also make it much easier for you to test, manage and update. Unless you like site visits to the middle of nowhere. The backend AGI scripts on this system can then speak a lightweight protocol to the remote system to query it. I'd be inclined to use GPRS as it'd have a very low cost considering the minimal amount of data that would pass, with CSD as a fallback if GPRS fails or the remote handset runs out of credit. -- PGP key ID E85DC776 - finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] for full key _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
