[Asterisk-Users] How to use * and # as part of number indialcommand

[Damon Estep]

Good to hear you have found a temporary solution, although I think it is
the permanent solution.

Keypad protocol is a bandaid to fix the real problem, not a solution.
The problem is that many PBXs cant set the caller ID presentation
fields, so keypad protocol was derived to work around it and allow end
users to modify caller ID representation from the handset 'keypads'

Use the caller ID presentation flags! That is the RIGHT way to do things
on ISDN.
