[asterisk-users] *72 Telco Call Forwarding

[Jeremy Mann]

WaitForRing() solved the issue completely, since I never get the 2nd ring it waits and then the channel hangs up when ATT completes the call forward.

Thanks for the tip.

Is there any reason you don't want to use Wait()?

However, I would use WaitForRing() myself - its also a great solution on dirty analog lines where you receive "phantom calls".

That being said, I don't know how to do it without using some form of Wait.. as far as I know zapata.conf doesn't provide a method of telling Asterisk to wait for a specific period of time or rings

Is there a way to force asterisk to ignore the first ring of a call without using Wait() ?

When I active *72 call forward on my analog lines from the telco, they always send a single ring and then do the forwarding.  Asterisk picks up essentially a dead line and rings the phones which gets really annoying.

Thanks.
