[asterisk-users] Ringing phones
Hi, I have a system that connects to the PSTN.What do I need to do so that when a call comes in, the system will start ringing the hunt group I have setup but not actually answer the call? The problem is the system is answering the call, and then passing 'ringing tones' back to the caller, so this makes the phone companies call-forward-no-answer not work since the telco thinks they have answered! ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Re: [asterisk-users] Ringing phones
Apologies.. we are using a sangom 4 port FXO card. It used to work (or so the company claims that has the PBX), but they are saying it stopped.. yet nothing has changed on the PBX system. I have verified it IS picking up and then passing the call onto the ringgroup (hence taking it out of the phone companies domain).

Matt, check in your incoming context that you don't have an Answer before you dial the ringgroup. If you don't answer and just dial the ringgroup, Asterisk won't pickup the incoming call until a phone in the ringgroup answers it. hth ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
Re: [asterisk-users] Ringing phones
The config is pretty simple.. when a call comes in it does an Answer(), which obviously is going to stop the phone companies no-answer-call-forward from working. My question, better perhaps, is.. is there a way to cause asterisk to push the ringing through to my ring group, without actually answering the line?

Hi Matt - The config is pretty simple.. when a call comes in it does an Answer(), which obviously is going to stop the phone companies no-answer-call-forward from working. My question, better perhaps, is.. is there a way to cause asterisk to push the ringing through to my ring group, without actually answering the line? Yes, as suggested earlier, just don't use the Answer() statement. Just skip it and go directly to the Dial() command for your ring group. The only real reason to do an Answer() before a Dial() is if you're getting audio-skippage (a very technical term) at the beginning of a call. This can happen on some FXO cards and phone lines, but it should generally work without the Answer(). - Noah On 11/8/06, Andrew Joakimsen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Why don't you post your configuration?
