    I bet the fix for ATAs would mean gaps in the voice, and cause more complaints. I *think* out-of-band mode would prevent this, but may not always work.

    I bet an IP Phone is immune, because it should know when the buttons are pressed.

    As sr98user says, it's predominantly a Linksys ATA issue. Linksys has other ATA models that have adjustable "DTMF strict" settings to address this problem. Unfortunately, I don't believe the RT31P2 or PAP2T have the ability in their firmware to adjust this. You can contact support to have them set you to in-band DTMF. This should eliminate the issue but is likely to cause problems with some IVR systems especially Voipo's own voicemail system.

    If it's too annoying, you might want to see if support can swap out your ATA with a Grandstream model.......

    Actually it's changing DTMF method to "INBAND" that fixed it for me. I had that problem on my PAP2. It drove me NUTZ. I kept blaming callers for pushing their TT buttons.

    Correct...Changing DTMF method to "INBAND" fixed it for me as well. All is good now!
