Customer presses a digit on the phone, no DTMF audio ever comes across the trunk. If that same customer calls a number with the same npa/nxx not destined for our LRN, DTMF audio comes across the trunk. These calls are coming to us via SS7 trunks and the ILEC that these calls transit through has verified that both calls come in on the same trunks, one has DTMF audio, one does not.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>This problem started on Thursday morning.
