I was not thinking that it would be too much difference. Therefore I 
also do not know what more info could help to distinguish the problem. I 
hardly can post my entire configuration.

You hit another problem with that. I hardly see here anything anymore. 
The messages fly by so fast, .... Especially annoying messages:
 chan_sip.c:10888 handle_request_register: Registration from 
'<sip:192.168.250.20>' failed for '192.168.250.244' - Username/auth name 
mismatch
 -- Got SIP response 486 "Busy Here" back from 192.168.250.244
 -- Got SIP response 400 "Bad Request" back from xx.xx.xx.126
NOTICE[5936]: chan_sip.c:9600 handle_response_register: Failed to 
authenticate on REGISTER to '1747xxxxx at proxy01.sipphone.com' (Tries 3)
.....

It would be nice to "filter" the CLI for such investigation for a moment.

That is a very good point and I will contact the manufacturer of these 
no-name phones.

I disagree with that! Why Asterisk treats dialing and transfer 
different. That makes not really sense, does it?
