Hello Everyone, I have a client that is looking at Asterisk. Does he have to get a T1 for the system or can he use his DSL line? Thanks for the help. --Tony -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

DSL with decent speed (256/256 or higher) will work. The connection speed and the chosen codec determine how many simultaneous calls the server can support. If there's a lot of other internet traffic on that same connection, you'll also need to implement QOS. -----Original Message----- From: Tony Vickers [mailto:tvickers@idltechnology.com] Sent: Tuesday, November 16, 2004 10:01 AM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Newbe Question Hello Everyone, I have a client that is looking at Asterisk.

Tony, You are going to have to be a little more specific. What does he want to use Asterisk for? What is his current PBX doing? Does he have a current PBX? How many lines at once, i.e. How many Erlangs does he need? Not to be critical but your questions is more like: "I have a client that is looking at a Car. Does he have to get a 6 cylinder for the system or can he use his house?
