[Asterisk-Users] Grandstream and CallerID

[Rick Petersen]

We just received a couple Grandstream's and also notice some problems with
the display.  When dialing a number, they will display the digits dialed
except that it seems to clear in the middle so if dialing 5804 it might show
5 then 8, then clear, then show the 0 and 4.

I've also not been able to figure out how to dial numbers that have
characters in them.  For example, how would I dial the extension "gonzo" or
for that matter, how do I dial "5801 at sip.whc.net" from the Grandstream 101?

I've also seen my 101 try to display 'grandstream', but with missing
letters.
I think it showed "gra   str   m" once - all lowercase letters.
At least the display is capable of crude letter display.  Getting it to work
the way you want is another matter altogether.
