The next question is about the outgoing Caller-ID Name. From the SIP trace, I see the name is set both in the "From:" line and the "Remote-Party-ID:" line, in quotes (""). However, the name does not appear on the caller-ID box of the POTS line. It seems the phone company (AT&T) is getting the name from a CNAM lookup. Is this something I can change, or is it just not sent in the path between Flowroute and AT&T?</div>
</div></blockquote><div>If the phone company is doing a CNAM lookup then there's not really anything you can do, unless they have a reason that they're doing a CNAM lookup instead of using the caller_id_name information. I'd ask Flowroute for feedback on that one.<br>
