[Freeswitch-users] Unreliable DTMF

The carriers pretty much had to do this. Back when IVR meant PC + 
Dialogic card + SCO Unix + application it was very very easy to end up 
not actually answering the calls, especially when using T1RBS. Most 
people had no idea their app was not answering the calls until the telco 
complained.

Regards,
Steve
