All, I use various IAX providers to terminate my outbound calls. I set the caller-ID to one of several DIDs, based on the called number. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to what the called user sees, however.
Calls to most cell-phones show *exactly* the number I submit. Calls to land-lines sometimes show, other times not. Calls to other voip-providers most often show, but sometimes don't. I'm currently only setting CID as a ten-digit number. Has anyone on this list tested caller-id delivery with various services? Is there *one* usable format (i.e. 1+10, or "+1"+10), or does it vary from provider to provider? Secondly, I've been having a difficult time hiding my CID information from callees. Not setting it will sometimes deliver the extension ID (logically); setting it to a blank string will sometimes deliver random, even invalid numbers. My best bet so far has been to simply set it to 0000000000. Better options? _______________________________________________ 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
