[asterisk-users] Que on A2Billing

[Nitesh Divecha]

Thanks everyone,

OK, I got everything working... I manage to create a SIP Customer with a 
real DID number and configured an ATA with the DID number. ATA can login 
and can make calls out without any issues.

But incoming calls are failing... As soon as the call hits Asterisk, 
A2Billing script runs and ask for PIN Number... I checked the context 
for my DID it shows "context=a2billing" and under sip.conf 
"context=a2billing".

If I change the default context under sip.conf to "context=default", 
then the calls are failing... meaning I do not get any response back, 
but on *CLI debug show that its failing to look for the DID number. 
Well, I know this is due to my DID is in  "context=a2billing".

Anyone can suggest how can I fix this... I want to ring my incoming to 
that ATA which has DID assigned.

Cheers,
Nitesh
