Usb dongle block caller id

Asterisk Asterisk Support
1

Hi. i am running asterisk 11 and i have a 3g usb dongle to make/receive calls. At the moment the outgoing calls are with the following:

exten => _9X.,1,Dial(Dongle/dongle800/${EXTEN:1},120,KT)
exten => _9X.,n,Hangup(${HANGUPCAUSE})

i need to block my caller ID on the outgoing calls and the carrier has the #31# for this to works(it has been checked in an ordinary mobile phone). If i edit the dialplan to be:

exten => _9X.,1,Dial(Dongle/dongle800/#31#ww${EXTEN:1},120,KT)

but the carrier responds that the number is wrong. Here is the output from the asterisk’s console:

Previous chan_dongle questions have established that there is no chan_dongle experience amongst the regulars on this forum. It is community supported code.

Why are you calling with double ‘w’ in your called number?

4

i thought that it might help to add a delay of 0.5 secs for each w.
Do you see any way to make it work, please?
If i take the ww off, then i have:

and the carrier to respond that the number is not valid and that i have to call directory services.

During call setup, mobile phone systems don’t send one digit at a time; they send the whole number, in one go, when you press the end key, or do the equivalent electronically.

OK, so how do i do that, please?

Back to my original response: there is no chan_dongle expertise here. If removing the w’s doesn’t help, it is unlikely anyone will know what is going wrong, or even if what you want is possible.
