Look at the disconnect cause the router sends back for the failing call (TX -> DISCONNECT), then look hard at the difference in the Setup messages for the working and failing calls.

K, I got the log with the debug command.  The 1st log, named success.txt is a number that works.  The 2nd log, named fail.txt is the number that gives me the “Call cannot be completed or is disconnected” message.
 
Does it look like what you think it is Ryan?

Your failing inbound calls could be because your provider is trying to send a call to you on a b-channel that doesn't exist on your side.
 
A 'debug isdn q931' for a failing call should confirm this.

Oh sorry.  The voice port on the router is PRI.  I noticed when configuring the channels on the PRI, I could only specify channels 1-14 (rather than 1-24).
 
I know about the PVDM calculator, but this equipment was ordered by my manager and then given to me to deploy.  I can always try & pop in a new PVDM with more DSPs in the router, but I am trying to figure out why some numbers can’t be dialed (or can only intermittently be dialed).  I am not sure if the PVDM capacity is at fault or not.

What kind of voice ports do  you have on the router?  Analog POTS or PRI or...

If you don’t have enough PVDM capacity, you can’t configure all of the channels on the PRI or all of the POTS lines.  There is a DSP/PVDM calculator on Cisco’s website that will tell you how much you need for a particular configuration.  Based on your symptom description, I’m not sure that this is your problem but never say never.

What specifically happens (or can go wrong) when you do not have enough DSPs on your PVDM module for a VoIP deployment?  Like for instance, if you have about 24 phones + 1 VG204 and you used a C2811 router with (1) PVDM2-16 and (1) VWIC2-1MFT-T1/E1.
 
I’m curious to know if the PVDM2-16 is my problem. I converted an office earlier this week to Cisco VoIP with the above equipment.  However, I’m finding that while outbound calls can be made (not sure how many simultaneously), I’m having a problem of people dialing in and getting a message saying that the call could not be completed or is disconnected.  I did not change any of the phone numbers and the number pool is the same.  The problem is random.  It occurs on some phones, then goes away.
 
Any ideas?
