[asterisk-users] E&M Wink and T4xxP losing ability to dial

[Steve Totaro]

A critical lesson I learned was not to rely to heavily on the AMI, 
especially when there are other ways of doing the same thing that are 
just as simple.

I suggest, rather than using AMI originate, mv or ftp .call files.

Thanks,
Steve
