[asterisk-users] Hang up detection with TDM400P and Telewest/Virgin Media line

[Luis Morales]

Ok!!

Do this finale test.

call fron analog lines to any number, wait until the called hang up.
Now tell us the signal tone. If the signal is busy ? or any thing
else....

Your set up look ok. Now try with this options into zapata.conf header:


zapata.conf:
usecallerid=yes
hidecallerid=no
callwaiting=no
threewaycalling=yes
transfer=yes
echocancelwhenbridged=no
immediate=no
faxdetect=no
busydetect=yes
busycount=4
