Local (PSTN) Line Delay Connect/Ring
bsdaiwa:
I am not sure how to explain this but here goes. I have an OBi200 with a OBiLine attached. The 200 is setup with all four (4) SP’s assigned, one to CallCentric and the other three with GV. The default is set to the PSTN line therefore I have to dial **X (X being the line number I want) in order to use any of the other services.
Here’s my problem, when I dial a number using the default PSTN line it takes 18 seconds of dead air before I hear a ring tone but if I use any of the other services it takes 1 second before I hear a ring tone. If I disconnect the PSTN line from the OBi and connect it directly to my phone the local line then only takes 1 second before I hear the ring tone. Based on that test I am assuming that the OBi is in some way creating the delay. Can anyone tell me how I can reduce or eliminate this delay on the local line?
Thanks

This is almost certainly a problem with matching the digits you are dialling with the OBiLINE digitmap. I don't use OBiLINE, but I believe that its default digitmap is:
(xxxxxxxS4|1xxxxxxxxxx|xx.)
This is very basic! It matches seven digit numbers and eleven digit numbers that starts with "1". Any other number has to be matched by "xx." This rule waits for ten seconds after the last digit has been dialled just to be sure that it is the last digit. Then add on time to seize the line, send out DTMF tones, connection time at far end etc and you soon get to your 18 seconds.
If you detail the number formats that you normally dial using your PSTN line, then I'll have a go at producing a better digitmap that suits your needs.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. I have a home in Brazil and this is for my OBi located there, where I am at the moment. I hope the following explains the dialing method here if not let me know what additional information you may need.
Calling another country when you are within Brazil
00xx xx=providers code i.e. 0014=Brazil Telecom, 0015=Telefonica, etc. followed by the Country Code, Area or City Code, then the local number.
Calling another city from my phone
0xxCCyyyyyyyy xx=providers code, CC=city code (two didgits) yyyyyyyyy=local number 8 didgits for landline 9 for mobile.
Calling a local number
Landline=yyyyyyyy
Mobile=yyyyyyyyy

As mentioned, this is almost certainly a Digitmap problem which ianobi can help you with.
What happens when the very last digit you dial (after the number) when making a call is "#" ?
So instead of dialing 0xxCCyyyyyyyy, you dial 0xxCCyyyyyyyy#
Does that decrease the amount of "dead air" you hear when making a call out your PSTN line?

Yes, adding a # after the local number does decrease the "dead air" time to what seems like normal.
