[asterisk-users] Call dies when I press *

[Steve Davies]

Is it related to Dial() options:

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+cmd+Dial
  h: Allow the callee to hang up by dialing *
 H: Allow the caller to hang up by dialing *

Perhaps it is some other system inline with yours that has this
feature enabled. I certainly found this to be the case with a version
of a2billing which included "Hh" in the dial parameters by default. It
is quite possible that the same system is swallowing your other DTMF
presses too.

Regards,
Steve
