That&#8217;s not too shabby. I&#8217;d love to sign up for that for easier billing (filing expenses 12 times a year is more of a drag than one), and it&#8217;d certainly be much cheaper for RedMonk.<\/p>\n<p>The problem is, the damn Skype client doesn&#8217;t work with conference calls very well. I&#8217;ve never gotten the touch tone dialing to work. &#8220;DMTF&#8221; they call it, right? For almost every call I do, I have to dial in pass codes. Obviously, it works like a charm on normal lines. But Skype always, <i>always<\/i> screws up.<\/p>\n<p>To that end, does anyone know if there&#8217;s a way to make it work? It seems like it&#8217;d be possible for it to work and, obviously, other VoIP providers have it working (right?).<\/p>\n<p><!-- technorati tags start --><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:right;font-size:10px\">Technorati Tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/skype\" rel=\"tag\">skype<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/voip\" rel=\"tag\">voip<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/dmtf\" rel=\"tag\">dmtf<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/conferencecalls\" rel=\"tag\">conferencecalls<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/jjb\" rel=\"tag\">jjb<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- technorati tags end --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Frustration with DMTF and Skype.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-572","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-the-analyst-life"],"acf":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/572","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=572"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/572\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=572"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=572"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=572"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
