<div>The outgoing caller-id is probably just the extension number, so the provider is setting it to a default (usually the main billing number). You can set what Asterisk sends as the outbound Caller-ID in the outbound context before the Dial statement. Make sure your provider will honor what you set, as many filter what you can send to only the DIDs they provide for you.</div>
