[Asterisk-Users] long pause on dialing..

[Giorgio Incantalupo]

Hi,
it is hard to answer without the right piece of extensions.conf but 
remember there is a digit timeout in Asterisk: you enter 9 digits but in 
the dialplan there is a match for 10 digits so how can Asterisk know if 
you want to call the 9-digits number or the 10-digits? After 9 digits it 
waits for a while...if another digit is dialed then it can call the 
10-digit number otherwise it calls the 9-digits number. You can lower 
Asterisk digit timeout but remember that not all users are so fast to 
dial...

Giorgio.
