Just to document the solution to this problem: Essentially, we did nothing except confirm the settings, reboot the phones, restarted Asterisk, rebooted the Linux server it runs on, etc.-- many times. During one observation of the Asterisk CLI, we saw some sort of registration message for one or both of the phones, and they started working--able to dial outgoing calls, *77, *98, etc. It's a mystery. I suspect it has to do with some sort of behind-the-scenes housekeeping that Asterisk does that finally finishes, and the phones start working. It would be nice if the developers would look into this. To say the least, if someone is under a deadline to get a system up and running and they are doing everything right, it becomes a very frustrating and stressful exercise when the software is so fickle. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation sponsored by Easynews.com -- 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
