[Asterisk-Users] On PRI: Getting (or faking) the ringing tone for outbound calls

[Jerry Glomph Black]

In the UK I have successfully cross-linked an Asterisk box (w/Digium E1 card) to
the office PBX (Small Siemens).  Works great in both directions!

But...

When calling FROM asterisk TO the PBX, the caller hears -no ringing-, just 
silence.  Users have been interpreting the silence (can be 20 seconds before the 
Siemens voicemail kicks in for a No Answer situation) as a dead line.

I have tried faking the ringing with various Asterisk methods, and have had
no useful result.

I'm sure users on this list have encountered and overcome this problem.

Thanks!
