I had this problem for a while - the phone is actually displaying the 
work "asterisk" in lower case - but it can't.

The GrandStream 101's display the number part of the caller id on their 
display. So - you can get around this by setting the caller id before 
you dial the extension.

How you go about differentiating - that's a bit harder - but you could 
set the caller id in your incoming context, and set it when you 
transfer to a specific extension from the local context... or use a 
goto statement based on the ${CHANNEL} variable... I haven't got this 
working.

Also - try setting callerid = "Name" <number> in the sip.conf file for 
each of the phones.
