View Full Version : Call routing display issue

Anyone else seeing this:

When I setup a phone number with a wildcard (asterisk) in it for a CALL FORWARDING route it displays very strange under call routing. This only does this with wild-cards in a call forward and not any other type of call route.

This is what it looks like:

Example: I want all calls FROM 908298**** forwarded to 9083771234. When I enter this route all the asterisks are displayed as [0-9] so when I setup 908298**** it shows up under call routes as: 908298[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9].

Again, this happens ONLY using the call forward routing feature with the "incoming" number having asterisk wildcards in them.

I just created some routes to test this feature. I see the same behavior if the action is to forward. If the action is to voicemail then it shows the "*" character.

[0-9] is part of the regular expression which means that character could be any digit between 0 and 9. So, probably no harm is displaying that way.

Even though the display is odd, I hope call routes work correctly for you.

Yea, it seems to work fine, it's probably just a cosmetic issue. Thanks for confirming.

LOL .... tech support says "that's how the wildcard is displayed." Obviously not because I have 15 other routes that display the wildcard asterisk just fine, only the "forward route" does this.

Don't really care since it's only a cosmetic issue but it obviously isn't how it is supposed to be displayed. Sometimes not saying anything is better then saying things that makes you look dumb. :D
