Hi, please forgive me for this (hopefully) simple question. I cannot seem to find an answer or solution while searching around. I want to be able to call in to my server using my cell phone and be able to set call forwarding for my extension and enter a phone number and also be able to call in to that extension and disable the call forwarding. I see I can do this through the ARI web interface but wish to do this with my cell phone. Currently, it seems I can only get into my voicemail and attempting to run feature codes like *72 don't get recognized. I currently have a DID assigned to my extension if this helps. I am not sure if it is required. Thanks much. jellydog Hope this answer is more helpful than harmful, but in my experience and reading, feature codes and cell phones don't play well together. DTMF processing is usually way less than 100% reliable in this setup. Your best bet is probably to replicate the feature function you want into an extension (1234 instead of *72) and dialing that from your cell or using the web interface on your cell to do the ARI function.
