Are you sure you don't just need to try playing sith some SIP options to get the phone to work (good) with Asterisk? One obvious canidate that comes to mind for example is whether DTMFs are sent in-band or as SIP messages. Most SIP implmentations (for Linux or otherwise) are very bad in interoping in regard to out of band SIP DTMF messages. Try enabling in-band DTMF in Astrisk and in the soft phone. > There might be one or two more I forgot to mention, but I think I tried > every single one I could get my hands on.

If it's OK to ask - what is your experience in regard to using Asterisk as an office PBX (I assume this is what you're doing)? Gilad -- Gilad Ben-Yossef <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Codefidence.
