[Asterisk-Users] BroadVoice usage?

Hi Greg,

Thanks for the fromuser= and fromdomain= hints. Adding those cleared
up the problem and we can make and receive calls now.

However, as with Voiceglo, BroadVoice seems to ignore DTMF on
incoming calls. It does send DTMF on outgoing calls. I've tried all
three dtmfmode values in sip.conf leaving the setting at inband which
seems to work for outgoing.

Does anyone else receive DTMF on incoming calls with their BroadVoice
account?
