Exten => _XX.,1,Set(CALLERID(num)=whatever)
Exten => _XX.,n,answer
Exten => _XX.,n,Dial(DAHDI/1/5551212,30)

This seems to work for roughly 2/3 of calls.
I'm trying to get as close to 100% as possible.

I can't think of any configuration issue or bug in Asterisk that would
cause 1/3 of calls to be incorrectly presented.
I rather suspect that different calls MAY use different routes and a
misconfiguration in one equipement in one of those would cause the issue.

I don't know how Telcos manage their networks.
I would have naturally thought that going from one point to another in this
network would always pass through the same set of equipements.
Maybe it's not the case and specifically when the end destination is a
cellphone and there is a large gateway between the landline and the mobile
networks.

Is this reasonning correct ?
