[asterisk-users] Help with Dialplan Rules Please!

[Alex Robar]

If the order is giving you problems, create two separate outbound routes,
one for local calls and one for long distance. Make sure the local route is
before the LD route, and it should work for you. Both outbound routes can
use the same trunk without issue.
