The problem is probably that you have not told the MAX that the phone
number is a huntgroup number and thus may be used on one or more lines.
If you do not configure the huntgroup number, especially if it does not
match an existing number, then the MAX will recognize that the dialed
number does not match the Pri Num/Sec Num associated with the line and
reject the call.
You can configure the MAX to recognize the hunt group number using the
"Ans #" parameter. Ethernet>Mod Config>WAN options...>Ans 1#=
The following is from the Reference section of the MAX manual:
Ans N# (N=1-4)
Description: Specifies a phone number to be used for call-routing purposes.
It appears in a number of profiles. In each case, it indicates "route calls
received on this number to me."
