asterisk users - Sep 2003 - Calls being interrupted, analog signalling problems

I'm having trouble with a WX100USB adapter and a Siemens Gigaset
cordless phone.

If I select fxols as a signalling method, calls are being
disconnected. Usually after about 4 minutes, and asterisk just says that
the phone has hung up.

If I choose fxogs, I immediately get a LINE IN USE message on my phone
and I can't even get a dialtone.

If I choose fxoks, it mostly works, but sometimes after making a call
the adapter will get stuck in a LINE IN USE state, too. I don't know of
a proper way to correct it, sometimes disconnecting the USB adapter and
reloading the drivers and asterisk fixes that, sometimes not.

What is the proper signalling method? What do you people use? I'd
appreciate any advice.

Hmm. Does the number of responses (zero) indicate that I'm the only one
having such problems?

I've just had to stop asterisk, unload the wcusb module, reload it,
ztcfg it and start asterisk again, because my line was stuck in the LINE
IN USE state (with no dialtone on the phone of course).

I guess I'll report it as a bug, then.
