I have set up Hint on all my extensions, according to all I have found out, the correct way, however I do not get anything on the phone. Is there something I am missing? I have one of these snom 220's with the side car, and another 220. I am running an RPM version of asterisk and have also tried this on a compiled version of asterisk from the CVS tree. Neither way did it work, is there some thing else I am missing? I set it up as Destination with the sip URL of the extension and my dial plan looks like this:
;1713 exten => 1713,hint,sip/1713 exten => 1713,1,Playback(transfer,skip) ; "Please hold while..." exten => 1713,2,Macro(stdexten,1713,sip/1713) as you can see I use a Macro but I do not try to put the hint in the Macro, also I have tried this without the Macro. I have rebooted the phone and restarted asterisk after each change. Can someone please help me out?
