Apart from the BT changes, I know that you also upgraded Asterisk.
Are you sure you applied all of the patches with no patch failures?
You would have needed to install both the Zaptel and Asterisk patch
sets and would have needed to restart everything.

Also, if you switched from an old patch set to a new one then you
would need to remove "ukcallerid = yes" from your zapata.conf file and
change "usecallerid = yes" to "usecallerid = uk".  That depends upon
the age of your previous patches, of course.

Double-check everything.

Also, plug a phone, with Caller*ID support, into your BT line and
verify that you are being sent the ID.  Perhaps BT switched it off
by mistake, or there's a problem on their part.
