Hi,

I’m using a X100P card connected to the PSTN and I need to set the number of rings before Asterisk answers calls. Right now it only rings once. Where do I set that? Using Asterisk 1.8.

Thanks.

You might also want to look at the WaitForRing() application in order to reduce the chance of Asterisk picking up a shared line.
