The first thing for passing caller ID during forwarding is to find a termination service provider that allows you to set caller ID number per call. The second thing to worry about is whether the PBX server is ready to pass the caller ID number from the inbound call to the outbound call.
What's interesting is that when I forward (*72) some other voip number to my provider that rings my ATA registered with voxalot, I do see a correct CID. Doesn't it mean that my provider does pass CID in certain cases, and all this is just an integration problem?
