Why does a call disconnect after one or two rings and how do I fix it in MyOperator?

Why does a call disconnect after one or two rings and how do I fix it in MyOperator?

⚡Quick answer-

Early call drops (0–2 rings) usually mean one of four things:

  1. No valid call flow at the current time,
  2. Account/plan suspended or credits exhausted,
  3. Routing to an empty queue or all agents unavailable, or
  4. A policy block (blacklist, geo-restriction, caller-ID rule).

Follow the checklist below and confirm success with a test call.

When should I use this guide?

Use these steps if callers report “it rings once, then hangs up” or your Call Logs show Rejected / No-flow events.

5 — Policy / limits that auto-drop calls

• Blacklist / spam filter – Settings → Policies → Blocked Numbers.

• Geo-permission – Numbers → Inbound Settings → Allowed Countries.

• Caller-ID rule – Reject anonymous CLI if policy enabled.

• Compliance prompt missing – Mandatory consent/DTMF enabled but no audio file attached.

6 — Network / PSTN checks (less common)

• Carrier outage – monitor multiple caller samples within 30 min window.

• SIP PBX rejects – look for 4xx/5xx in PBX logs; disable SIP ALG and open RTP 16384-32768.

• SSL inspection – if SIP/TLS 5061 or webhook callbacks in use, bypass SSL inspection for MyOperator subnets.


7 — Confirm it worked

✓ Test call during in-hours reaches IVR within 2-5 s and continues ringing/queuing.

✓ Call Logs show Connected or IVR Reached (no Reject).

✓ Test off-hours hits voicemail or fallback (doesn’t drop).
