[Asterisk-Users] BroadVoice outgoing works - now tackle caller ID

My question was about setting the caller ID to be something other than 
the broadvoice phone number. That way if I want to put an 800 number on 
their display I can do so. I also need this because I am setting up 
incoming DID numbers to the pbx. I need to set caller ID to show the 
correct callback number. Otherwise I might as well stick to using vonage 
for outgoing calls.

One thing I like about them so far is that they can set the caller ID 
name for you in the database. All I had to do was ask. The change shows 
up now in my web login. Maybe in a few days it will actually show up on 
phones I call. I can't get that feature from the other voip providers I 
am trying or from my cell provider. I have it on my pots line. If I set 
the callerid to my pots number when placing outbound calls through other 
providers, that number and my business name is displayed on the called 
party phone.

Again, has anyone been able to set caller ID on outgoing broadvoice 
calls using asterisk?
