External Page with Hunt ringing

[adamleahy]

Hi guys,

Finally got my butt into gear and organised an amplifier for external page.

Works fantastically when paging so one problem solved.

Is there a way of effectively adding the external page to the hunt group? The problem with my customer is that there is not someone always around or in the office, so someone out in the warehouse needs to be alerted to a call. Putting a phone out there is not sufficient enough in volume as its quite loud.

Is there a way I can get the external page to work when the hunt group is ringing?

I am running Release candidate 2.3 and was hoping this would become a feature.

Any help is much appreciated.

cheers!

Hi Adam,

Typically you don't want a page call in a hunt group because it auto answers and the caller would not hear any thing.  I think what you are looking for would be more of including an FXS port in the hunt group and then looking at what other partners have done in this thread with combination of ring booster and ringer:

Hope this helps.
