<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt">Hi all now that I am on 1.6.2.11 I am running into call pickup issues.
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">What changed between asterisk 1.6.1.20 and 1.6.2.11 with call pickup. I can not find anything in the change log that would indicate why our call pickup ability broke. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">Grandstream phones send a prefix to the extension on call pickup so say a user tries to pickup extension 6168551030.6001 the grand stream phone would send **6001 our dial context for extensions would send a pickup for SIP/6168551030.6001 </p>
