Its my full "test" dialplan for now. I do get fast busy as soon as I hit 8, so that part works. > So, it looks like what you want is a global dialing timeout > in the phone, which the Polycom phones don't appear to have > once you break dialtone.

Did I misread the Asterisk wiki pages, because I believed that when a pattern was present, the pattern takes precedence over any "real" extensions? (i.e. if I have both 1234 and _1XXX as extensions in a context)? Thanks John, I appreciate all the info.
