BV apparently has decided to avoid those callerid problems by implementing limits on their equipment that basically emulates the US pstn telephony standards. Since we all know BV uses non-asterisk equipment for their primary itsp infrastructure, the limitation might be imposed by their softswitch manufacturer. I have a friend that works in a US central office and he reportedly will change the calleridname in the libd database to "God Calling", dial a friend, and then change it back. Raises at least some questions. ;) _______________________________________________ --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
