> Hello Enthusiasts:

> exten => _9011.,2,Dial(SIP/LDProvider/${EXTEN:4},120,tr)
>
> Here is the issue... Everytime a call is placed, it of

> carrier "LDProvider" is able to successfully make the calls
> go through, or not at all.

> But each time the above dial plan is executed, the voip phone
> user thinks the call is going through because they hear the
> ringing tone & feel that the other party's phone is ringing.

> The reality is that... as long as my LDProvider is

> one of the two signals.
> 1. "Making progress".
> 2. "All circuits busy"... or something like that.

> When it make's progress to reach the destination, the 3rd

> When the circuits are busy at my LDProvider's side, my client

> client's to get the impression that the calls are still being
> attempted while "All circuits busy" message is received.

> I want to give them a TRUE message... that is... if and
> ONLY IF my LDProvider makes progress, ONLY THEN, I want my
> clients to here the ringing tone that their destination
> number (where ever on this planet) is ringing.
