That is not correct or at best not completely correct. That is what I would have believed it to be, but some passthrus (like the handytones) allow you to dial *00 or some other combination to dial out of the PSTN directly. I guess it is possible that the *00 turns off the FXS to allow the straight passthru, but even if that is so, the X100p doesn't have an equivalent functionality. _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
