Methinks these devices suck rottens eggs.

In any case, what happens if you end the dialed number with its dial string
termination character (#?)? Does that speed it up?

When I need a cheap device I cringe, because the time ain't worth the
troubles.

Subject: Re: [sipx-users] spa3102 for outbound calls

Maybe something related to the 2 stage dialing config? I didn't notice any
delays like this using the config I sent in that PDF but I was just thrilled
it could make calls at all and might just not have noticed the delay. Maybe
plug in a butt-set or a parallel phone and listen for where the delay is to
narrow it down (delay seizing line, delay before dialing, delay or slow
dialing of digits, ...?).

  not sure since the text around it refers to FXS and this is FXO. I sort of
guess there has to be some some sort of authorization for the spa3102 to
know the sipx call can be sent outbound, but I don't know where to do this.
Sorry if I'm missing something obvious here. I think the fact that I got an
audiocodes 8 port working inbound and outbound with no questions (and
clearly not much knowledge on the subject) is a testament to how well sipx
is able to configure it!
