OBI110, UK PSTN Call Barring
rizdina:
ianobi,
I had some free time tonight since the kids went to sleep early and I decided to test the new configurations out.
Everything you recommended worked perfectly. I didn't try the 100/101/112 emergency numbers (for obvious reasons), but I am assuming those are set up correctly. The local land-line and mobile numbers are being correctly routed to the PSTN line and the 1-xxx-xxx-xxxx numbers go straight to my GV at sp1. :-)
I was able to decrease my DTMF lengths down to 50. I made quite a few test calls and all went through with no problems with the shorter DTMF lengths.
The only item I could not test was caller ID. My PSTN subscription does not include caller ID. For me it's not worth the money to pay for that service since I mainly use my mobile phone. The home land-line is just for emergencies and the kids.
BTW, I noticed that OBI on only supports four caller ID standards, two of which are DTMF, which is what the Belgium caller ID uses. But the DTMF standards the OBI supports are for Finland/Sweden and Denmark. There are other DTMF caller ID standards out there. I don't know if the Belgian caller ID standard is close enough to the Finland/Sweden or Denmark standard to make it compatible with one of those setting. Perhaps someone else on this forum can help.
But thank you so much for your help in setting the parameters for my OBI.

Riz,
I think we have a good configuration for Belgium users now. There's sure to be a few numbers that we have not exactly matched, but that's what the "xx." rule is for.
CallerID methods vary all over the world. I bought a device a while back made in Taiwan; its CallerID detect method was DTMF Finland/Sweden! Lots of trial and error working these things out.
If you are not using CallerID on your PSTN line, then you may as well set this to 0:
Physical Interfaces > LINE Port > RingDelay
There's no point in delaying the incoming ring.
