Thanks for the input. I am using A2Billing and it takes long time to authenticate PIN number and to dial destination number. If # sign is used then it's a different story and it goes through quick.<div><br></div><div>-Bruce<br>

<p>As soon as the dialed number matches one of the dial patterns defined in extensions.conf or its included files, asterisk starts dialing it. The wait you have is probably from the trunk provider's side because by default asterisk doesn't start playing the ring tone unless it gets acknoledgement from the provider's side indicating that the call is successfully going through.</p>
<p>But even before the above process starts, sip soft phones have their own dialing patterns and timeout values. As soon as your dialed number matches one of them, it is sent to asterisk which does the above. So first you'll have to check your sip phone's dialout pattern and timeout values.</p>
