Hi, I've got a (maybe stupid) question: I'd like to install Asterisk on my notebook (just to play around with it). Is my internal phone modem equivalent to an FXO port? Hence, could I make phonecalls to my pots-line with it? thanks philipp
Hi Philipp, I have a notebook running in a remote location (powered by Solar) and connected to an ISDN line with an AVM Fritz PCMCIA ISDN card (and chan_capi) - this works very well for me. This may not be helpful to you at all as you are specifically talking about a POTS line.

Did you need to repost EXACTLY the message you sent yesterday? One other person and I gave you an answer YESTERDAY. Did you just not read it or are you bone headed and unable to accept that you probably can't use the modem as a FXO device. -- Steven Critchfield <critch@basesys.com>
