Re: [Broadvox Direct] DTMF tones..
Hey Jeff, you thought it was funny before? Read this 
Every time it beeps now, she hears it. This makes her squeal "stop hitting buttons!", which, of course, makes it beep again. Then she goes into a high pitched yelling about it, during which I'm convinced the DTMF tones actually are working as a profanity filter 
You might want to ignore the rest of the post, it's babbling that results from me not sleeping at 2AM
I called the automated weather line here a few minutes ago, and it started beeping when the lady on there talks (well, the recording of her talking plays). Seems to be getting more touchy. Is it possible this is happening at the PSTN gateway here? My inbound caller ID is no longer working- they're all coming up as anonymous. Even says so on the portal. But then again I had a ticket about outgoing caller ID the other day, the support guy might have broken the incoming while looking into the outgoing. Who knows? I opened a ticket about the incoming caller ID. Just thought I'd mention it in the slight chance they're related.
EDIT: I wouldn't have brought that up, but I find it weird that if the adapter were regenerating DTMF tones it would send them out on her side, too. I had asked her before if she heard the tones, and she said no. 
Now that I've sufficiently rambled in my half-asleep state, I'm going to bed.

Are there not two choices like the old Cisco ATA 186?
In-band sends the tone as part of the voice content.
Out-of-band IIRC will generate tones as an extra sound component for when issues with compression and transmission quality make the tones hard for another system to properly detect.
It would seem that In-Band would be used with G.711
HEY EDIT: If this is the far end . . . it would be the phone switch, of their phone company???
