I tried it between 3 polycom phones as well (all on the same subnet). Phone a calls phone b
<rings> Phone c dials *78<phone b ext> - call gets dropped. To be fair - the phone to phone test - happened with alpha characters in the userid. I have since changed those phone to the extension as the userid and have not had a chance to re-test that scenario again. ----- Also tried it with a call coming in via Patton PRI (with #### as the userid): Productname : SN4960/4E48V Software Version : R5.2 2009-01-14 H323 RBS SIP ------ Also - I am not running the recommended polycom firmware...I will downgrade to 3.1.3C and try again - I actually feel kind of silly for not doing this first... I just went there to download - 3.3.0 is out as well - which I'm assuming I should avoid like the plague? I'll keep you posted - thanks.
