[Asterisk-Users] dialling out

[Stephen R. Besch]

Mick,

If you're using the Grandstream, there appears to be a bug in early 
dial.  After the 4th or 5th digit, * sends back an address incomplete 
message and the phone responds with the buzy - generated at the phone.  
A SIP debug trace indicates that * is sending the correct information 
and continues to waut for the next digit, which never arrives.  I have 
sent Grandstream a bug report and they are working on the problem.  As a 
temporary workaround turn the early dial option off.  If you are not 
using the Grandstream, then there may be a similar problem in other 
phones, or, despite appearances from the SIP debug trace, there may be a 
problem with *;  I'm betting on the phone in this instance.  Turn on SIP 
debug in the CLI and study the responses after each digit.  Ignoring the 
acknowlege packets, you should get a series of invites from the phone, 
each subsequent one with one additional digit, and each followed by an 
address incomplete response from *.  If everything is working, this 
happens until the invite requests an extension that is actually in the 
dialplan.
