Maybe this is easy, but I am a asterisk beginner …
I am using asterisk with only ip-phones and SIP-proxy (voipbuster.com).
I have incoming voip-calls from voipbuster routed to a Grandstream-488 ATA on my local network. This works fine. But the caller-id shown on the display of my phone (connected to my ATA) shows “asterisk” instead of the phonenumber of the caller.
When I use the Grandstream-488 directly with SIP connecting to voipbuster (so without using Asterisk), I do see the phonenumber of the calling-party, so I think the number is sent.
Can I configure asterisk so that it repeats the caller-id code to the extention (my ATA) ??
I would expect this to work by default - it certainly does for me. I’ve never done anything to explicitly make Asterisk send the CID number, it just does it.
Are you sure it’s not the way the ATA’s configured?
I don’t know if this will help you, but have you had a look at

I don’t think it’s ATA configuration, because it is receiving a CID (“asterisk”) so this CID must be made by asterisk.
How to you route incoming calls from voip ?
I have the following entry in extensions.conf :
exten => xxxx,1,Dial(SIP/grandstream1)
exten => xxxx,2,Hangup
(where xxxx is the accountname for incoming calls and grandstream1 is the sipaccount (friend) from my ATA which is on my local-net (192.168)

I did not see this page before but it is not the solution for my “problem”.
The last post on there is from a guy who has the same ISP as me and probably lives around 25km from me (unfortunately there is no email adress of him there)
That’s the CIDname. It’s probably also being sent the CIDnumber - maybe it’s displaying the wrong one. If in doubt, configure extensions.conf to only send the number - i.e., set the CID with the number and a null name. And see what happens.
