A simple way for you to test your indications.conf as far as the ringing 
goes is something like this:

exten => s,1,Answer
exten => s,n,PlayTones(ring)
exten => s,n,Wait(30)
exten => s,n,Hangup

That should pick up the line and then play your locale's ring tone for 
30 seconds before hanging up.  If you hear ringing then indications.conf 
is fine, otherwise you have confirmed that there is a problem somewhere.

This will have nothing to do with your carrier as the sounds are 
generated by asterisk itself as audio (as opposed to any kind of 
carrier-specific signaling).
