Hello,

I've got a SPA-3000 recently.
I disabled the possibility to switch from voIP -> PSTN when I want to
make a call and that the VoiP provider is down.
(I would like to avoid bad surprise on my phone bill.....)

However, I would like to force the SPA to use the PSTN line when I use
some specific number...

Is there a possibility to do this ? like ' *9 ' -> to use the PSTN Line

Thanks

You mean if you dial some sequence from the telephone set connected to
the "Line 1" (FXS) port of the SPA-3000? Sure: just craft a suitable
dialplan in the "Line 1" panel of the "Advanced" admin setup. For
instance, this dialplan, a subset of the one I use at home:


....would result, by default, in calls to the PSTN (the "gateway 0"),
unless you dial "##" which will give you a dial tone (like dialing "9"
on some PBX's to get the external line) prompting you for digits to be
dialed through the main Voip account defined under "Proxy and
Registration" and "Subscriber Information" in the same panel.
To speed up the dialing and avoid a wait for digit timeout, just
terminate your phone numbers with a "#", just as it's normally done
when calling IDD.

Probably (but I haven't tested it) the behaviour you described above
would require this dialplan:


If you don't want a dialtone after the "*9", just take out the ","
after the "9".
