It sounds sort of like the SPIDS are incorrect in the P75. I have seen
several times when I could simply hook up a P75, and I could make
outbound calls on a National Switch. Of course inbound calls are being
ignored by the unit. If the unit has had some changes made, or the
telephone company decided to change things w/o telling you, that might
be the case.
Do a "Show ISDN" at the terminal prompt, and see if it is saying INVALID
SPID.
