I am not sure why they would tell you to ignore PID, that seem broken to me.  However, in this case, you could resolve it in a couple ways.

1) you could just look at the sip_from_user variable
2) you could set a param on the gateway for caller id in from (this may be less sucessful based on if we can match this inbound call to the gateway)

Hi - I'm getting calls from a carrier with the proper e.164 FROM but their PID is coming in inconsistently. I was told to ignore the PID.

Apparently, FS is using the PID for the profile Caller-Caller-ID-Number variable.

Are there any toggles for how to manage inbound caller ID?
This is currently coming in via ACL to public context... can I even set the sip_cid for that?

Suggestions?
