[Asterisk-Users] Overriding Caller ID

[Michael D Schelin]

PRI is one of many signaling formats available on a T1 circuit. T1 and 
PRI are not the same thing.  Have your carrier change the signaling 
format of your T1 to PRI. PRI is 23 B Channels and 1 D Channel 
(Signaling) and is an end office protocol. It has many of the features 
of  a full blown SS7 network.
