I'm running Asterisk 1.0 RC2 on a RedHat 9.0 box. I have a ISDN BRI line that I would like hook up to my Asterisk server and would like to ask the group what you guys would recommend as far as isdn cards that install easily into the Linux and asterisk environment. Rgs, Mark
Hi Mark, I've succesfully installed an Eicon Diva 2.0 PCI in 10 minutes. It works fine but i have some problems with CALLER NUMBER: it's always 0. My box is RedHat 9.0 and asterisk cvs 25-08-2004.

Good luck finding a Linux/Asterisk-compatible ISDN PCI card that's usable in the US. I've had my eye out for a while, and haven't had any luck. If you do find something, and find someone who will sell it to you, please share it with the list...

What's the deal w/ this setup in the US? I'm a little new to the Asterisk thing and my company has an unused ISDN BRI provisioned for both data and voice (NT1) Is this not possible?

They seem to work fine with CAPI and chan_capi. However, they are pricey. A quick froogle search has one company listing them at $560. Oh, make sure you pick up a NT1 (eBay is good) as the card has a S/T interface. The cheap HFC based cards are great...if you live in EuroISDN land. US telcos never really figured out how to make ISDN make sense, and we ended up with NationalISDN (NI). Last I heard the only think stopping asterisk drivers for the HFC cards from supporting NI1 was a lack of time, money, and the right Bellcore specs. I *really* like ISDN and I think it could be great for a lot of small business use. However, US telcos rather dislike it. --Justin
