[Asterisk-Users] Bristuff and incoming call problems

[Remco Barende]

I tried it and indeed putting Ringing first seems to work.

Weird bug though that it sometimes work and sometimes doesn't.

The other bug is even more annoying however, my incoming phone number dies 
about 2-3 times a day and the number appears to be invalid.

This is something I can't live with
