[arm-allstar] Phone Patch Caller ID

Mon Feb 22 22:05:10 EST 2016

On the "General" tab of my VoIP.ms account settings I tied the DID number
dedicated to my repeater as the callerID number for outgoing calls from the
repeater.
Then I emailed a request to VoIP.ms customer service requesting a CNAM
update for that DID number to read: N4WGY REPEATER
VoIP.ms charges a one time $10 fee for the CNAM update.

If you email VoIP.ms customer service do do this, be sure to include:
Name:
Address:
CITY:
State:
ZIP:
Contact Number:
