[asterisk-users] CallerID from POTS to SIP

[astuser at braingia.org]

Thanks for the reply.  Yep, the telco is providing the callerid since 
it's getting into the asterisk call database just fine, in all cases.

It appears that the telco has changed the cadence for the distinctive 
ring again.  I modified the dring contexts to handle a 0,0,0 dring and 
now callerid appears to make it through to the phones, sometimes.

I'm therefore led to believe that there is weird behavior around 
distinctive ring and the passing of CID.  I can only assume that if an 
exact matching dring context isn't found and it goes to [default] then 
callerid isn't passed out but still is logged, which is just wonky to 
me.
