Hello all,
I was hoping to be able to call a mobile and if it is un-reachable for whatever reason (e.g. switched off) then I was expecting an unobtainable response that would be detected in Asterisk. It seems that the operator (Virgin in UK) imedately completes the call and plays an automated message before clearing the call. Does anyone know if there a way of avoiding the call completion for mobiles? I have noticed that Sipgate charge for a calls to an unavailable mobile regardless.
Bellsouth at least WILL play an automated message, but NOT answer the line. I work around this by adding the "r" option to the Dial command. The "r" option of course provides a fake ringing sound to the caller, even if it REALLY should be doing something else like playing telco audio before answer, or a busy tone.
