[Asterisk-Users] making * more like a normal pbx (cisco ata-186)

[Reid A. Forrest]

I've done something similar at home, but made my dialplan such that I can
dial either 10 or 11 digits locally. I don't use a "throw away" digit at all.
Any 7, 10, or 11 digit call will be appropriately mangled and sent out the
PSTN / VoIP provider.

You're probably up the creek with the ATA186.  I had one of mine unlocked
from Vonage, and I think it'll go on ebay and I'll upgrade to another Sipura
instead.  I tested hotline functionality on sipura (pick-up phone and go
right into context) successfully.  It's conceivable you could change the
sipura's dial-plan to include a singular "9", which takes you into the
incoming context, and then you could...

 

[incoming]

9,1,Dialtone

9,2,....

 

Of course, predialing (my phones let me dial a number on display, and once I
pick up the receiver, they're dialed) would now become a problem, as
establishing the connection may cause the first DTMF digit after the 9 to be
missed by *, and you'd have to add a pause to all speed-dial (or pre-dial)
numbers.  If you're setting up asterisk for home-use, consider using "1" as
the indicator for outside lines and always dialing 11 digits.  That's what I
have done, and it's oh-so-wife-friendly, plus I can always re-dial any
incoming CID number without thinking about the area code, etc.

	got it.. so one more question, this is on a cisco ata-186, (SIP) so
it probably wont work. I have gone through the entire "dialplan" portion of
the manual and can't find any function to make it function in this way. I am
running firmware 2.16.
