I have an [EMAIL PROTECTED] 1.3 server (Asterisk 1.0.9) and recently added a
TDM400P with (1) FXO card on port 4. Inbound calls are always successful
but outbound calls fail 75% of the time with intercept messages from my
dial tone provider that include "we're sorry, your call did not go
through", and "we're sorry, when placing a local call it is now
necessary to dial an area code and the 7-digit number".
Add a "w" in the dial string within extensions.conf. The "w" adds a short
delay before sending the dtmf to the telco, which is likely happening
too fast for the telco switch.
Is that undocumented?
The wiki entry for the Dial() command says:
w: Allow the /called/ user to start recording after pressing *1 or what
defined in features.conf (Asterisk > v1.0.x)
To add a short delay to one of my remote FXO lines, I added A(silence/2)
to the dial string.
I don't recall seeing any changes come through for that, and "w" does add
the delay before sending dtmf. Lots of folks use it, so I'd have to guess
that either the 'show application dial' displays the help for w used in
a different context. Embedded the "w" in the called number, and it will
add about 200 milliseconds of delay. Multiple w's add more delay.
I believe that the Dialplan option 'w' and the dial *string* meta-digit
'w' are the source of confusion here. They are distinct.
One of them is found in the string of "digits" to be dialed and causes a
wait; the other one is found after the "|" that separates the dial
target from the options to the command.
