Hi, DTMF will not pass reliably through *any* low bit rate codec, with the exception of some forms of ADPCM. GSM certainly does not work. When a VoIP system is configured properly it works just like a cellular telephone system, which suffers the same problem. It doesn't send the DTMF tones.

Greetings all, I have searched all over and have found bits and pieces on low bit rate codecs, however I have found it very difficult to compare apples with apples. The conclusions I have come to are as follows, I would appreciate if anyone has some feedback, or point me to where I might find
