[Asterisk-Users] really need help with outgoing calls..PSTN errors

[Mark Hulber]

Have you tried dialing an 800 number?  Does that work?  This extension:

    exten => _9XXXXXXXXXX,1,Dial(${OUTBOUNDTRUNK}/${EXTEN:1})

seems to be missing one X since it's only 10 digits long.  Your PSTN 
probably requires a 1 to be dialed also.  On the other hand,

    exten => _91[1234567]XXNXXXXXX,1,Dial(${OUTBOUNDTRUNK}/${EXTEN:1})

you should probably be matching this extension instead although you 
won't be able to match anywhere that has an area code that starts with 
an 8 or 9. (905, 916, 914 as a few examples).

MARK.
