[Asterisk-Users] Problem about outgoing calls with verizon.

[Steve Totaro]

Add a w (wait) to your dialstring.  Chances are asterisk is dialing
before you are getting dialtone.  You can put a butt set on the line and
listen while dialing out to verify this before adding the w.  Sometimes
it may take ww to get it working correctly.

 

Thanks,

Steve

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Problem about outgoing calls with verizon.

 

Hi, everyone,

 

I have met a very strange problem. We use a Asterisk PBX connected with
two rollover PSTN phone line provided by Verizon by Digium TDM cards.
The incoming calls are always OK. But when I make outgoing calls,
sometimes it works, sometimes it just get a busy tone, doesn't work at
all. The strange thing is that when I use the same server with SBC lines
perviously, it worked fine. 

 

What is the problem here? This drives me crazy.

 

Thanks
