[Asterisk-Users] DTMF Talk off

[John Millican]

Okay here goes,
I guess I misunderstood Doug's question about the far end interface. I have no 
availability for high speed internet at my house to place a VoIP call over. 
So, I have a standard phone plugged into the PAP2, The PAP2 plugs into the 
network at my house to which the asterisk box is also connected,  the 
asterisk box has an FXO card that has the PSTN line plugged into it, this is 
where the ZAP channel comes in.  when i dial a local number asterisk simple 
dials the number out the pstn line.  If i dial a long distance number, the * 
box dials a local phone number that I have through my VoIP provider which is 
answered by an * box that I have at a different location using a line in 
extensions.conf like:
Dial(zap/1/<my_sip_number>wwwwww${EXTEN});
this way when the second * answers the phone it get the ${EXTEN} that I 
actually dialed and dials it out over the cable connection.  I hope i was a 
little clearer this time and sorry for the confusion.
