Random Incoming Call - CID displays "asterisk"

(1/4) > >>

Loughary:
Okay, not sure if this is a VOIP problem or my OBi but I've been receiving random incoming calls  that show up on my caller ID as "asterisk" it does not display a number.  I've checked the log of OBI and it displays the same "asterisk" without a incoming number. I logged into my VOIP account and it shows no history of the calls, that's whats making me think it is the OBI device.  It started on 06/27  I received incoming calls at these times 6:44:19, 16:35:58, 17:43:42 then today 06/28 at 5:01:37 and 6:32:05.  When I answer the phone there is nothing at the other end just silence. The calls this morning at 5am didn't make the wife real happy.

I recently updated to the latest firmware...so I'm going to downgrade to the last firmware to see if it fixes the problem.

Thanks.

This has been addressed by RonR and some other folks. But here is the quick fix.

You'll have to add this to the incoming VoiceService --> SP1 Service --> X_InboundCallRoute

Add the following string: {asterisk:},{(xxx):},{'asterisk':},{('asterisk'):}

So the actual string would look something like: {(x.4029997777):aa},{asterisk:},{(xxx):},{'asterisk':},{('asterisk'):},{ph}

This would also prevent calls from 3 digit numbers that the Obi sometime receives at odd times.

Thanks

Shouldn't he be using "asterick" as oppose to "asterisk" or both?  Seems whomever is attempting to "break into" his system has change the word to "asterick" to defeat the block!  Unless of course the OP spelt the word incorrectly.....

Loughary:
My bad it is ASTERISK not asterick...sorry I corrected my original post.

I'm a little new to this...should I put the string just like below or am I editing anything based on my phone number and area code? Currently now under X_InboundCallRoute it has ph

{(x.4029997777):aa},{asterisk:},{(xxx):},{'asterisk':},{('asterisk'):},{ph}

Thanks for all the help.
