Steve, The cellular system is Cingular, and as I said it works fine if the call is made from the cell phone to asterisk, so I don't think it's the cell switch, If the call is made through the asterisk box using a pri line, Digum T100P, to a cell phone then the DTMF does not work, for any application.
Thanks for you response, John -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Steve Underwood Sent: Wednesday, March 09, 2005 7:55 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] DTMF out to Cell Phone Hi John, You didn't say what kind of cellular system. If its an AMPS system (I don't think any other analogue cellular stiff exists) DTMF is quite troublesome. If it is a digital network the DTMF actually comes from the basestation, rather than the phone. Its is normally very high quality. However, its timing is nothing like the timing of the button pushes on the handset. The basestation stretches the digits to rather long ones. Possibly as much as a second each.
