Which is great since we switched to Inband but now the Voipo voicemail can't be checked from my Voipo line. Support mentioned some IVR's would not work but surely I can check my voicemail, correct?

Voicemail uses DTMF too. I am thinking the same problem will exist. I remember when Viatalk went to new architecture DTMF did not work for a number of folks who used Inband. They had to change it to Auto.
Only out of curiosity (and to make some conversation) could you please explain what you mean by "we switched to inband". The voicemail not working without proper DTMF tones makes since. I am fuzzy on the whole inband thing.Quote:

Sorry, you should have been told about VM upfront with it when you requested move to inband. The voicemail system isn't currently compatible with it.
You'll be able to check it using the remote access number 832-838-7000 but it requires AVT/RFC8322 for checking it from the VOIPo line.
I guess I will reprogram our voicemail buttons on the phones to call that number. Thanks Tim.
Off the wall idea but just set line 1 for inband. Leave line 2 on auto. Just when you wife calls always answer line 1. Always check voicemail with line 2.

You are a genius!Quote:

Me neither which is why I was surprised. It also seems to be PAP2 specific as it only happens with the PAP2 from Voipo, not the GS502 from Voipo or the VT PAP2 and GS. Very odd.Quote:

I get about the same amount of DTMF sounds with both companies. So its either set the same or doesn't really matter.
