[Asterisk-Users] Long wait for ring

Thanks both of you.  The asterisk dialplan was my first guess.
Simplified it to try to eliminate that possibility, but still
wasn't sure I had done it right.  Didn't help.

Ran tcpdump and discovered it was about 8 seconds before the
ATA sent anything to asterisk.  Then I read the second suggestion.
Tried #, and the phone rang almost immediately.

Thanks again,
Drew
