Hello,

I am experiencing a strange problem and I am wondering if anyone may have some pointers as to how to overcome it.

I have an account with VoipTalk here in the UK which I have connected to my Asterisk server. VoipTalk supports IAX2 and SIP and I have connected to my Asterisk box using both methods. The problem is when I dial into my Asterisk box via my VoipTalk incoming PSTN phone number from a landline or mobile Asterisk does not consistently recognise DTMF's.

I have my VoipTalk context for incoming calls set to dial an extension in my house then forward on no-answer to Asterisk voicemail. The idea is to:

--go into the voicemail box
--go to administrative options
--place an outgoing call
--dial a local extension that activates the DISA function
--Once in DISA, enter a DISA password and then it's possible to dial any other locally defined extension.

When I hear my voicemail greeting I press star to get to the prompt where I can enter my voicemail password. Asterisk seams to consistently recognise both the star and my password. So far, so good!

Then, I press "4" for administrative options and "3" for place an outgoing call. Again this works fine.

The problem however is when I attempt to dial the extension assigned to my DISA function. More often than not, Asterisk seams to miss my DTMF's. In the event I do get to my DISA password prompt, it more often than not misses DTMF's there as well.

I have this same problem no matter if I use IAX or SIP to connect to VoipTalk. When connected via SIP I have the DTMF signalling set to "inband" which seams to work as I am able to get into my voicemail box as I said above.

Can anyone offer a suggestion as to why it seams like Asterisk is inconsistent with recognising DTMF's? Does it use different recognition routines in different function s of the programme? Is there a way to heighten the recognition sensitivity?


Any ideas would be very much appreciated!

Thanks in advance
  Monty
