Hi all,
i'm new to this list, and amazed with
Asterisk. I wanted some information about the Digium
cards. I need these cards to connect to the PSTN from
home. All i need is to connect to the PSTN and have
one more port for connecting my land line (local)
phone, please advise me on what i should buy to get
this functionality on to my PC running Asterisk. a 2
PORT card is what i'm looking at but i dont mind
buying a 4 port one too.
I would also like to know whether someone on
this list from India have tried connecting to the PSTN
usng Digium cards. If yes, please give me the card
details i should buy.
thanks for you time.
cheers,
Amith

It might not make much sense to you, we either for that matter, but it is illegal. To the point that plugging in a system capable of VoIP, but not used for VoIP can get you in trouble. I needed to install a system in India and worked with the Telcos to see if I could install a local-use only system. We were offered the option of buying a $24,000 license, which could be revoked at anytime for any reason. No one could tell us if we would need to renew annually, or if the license fees were refundable if the law changed. So what makes sense to you and I had no bearing in India, and the rules don't look like they'll be changing anytime soon. Dan

Right about the time they arrest some guys running a VoIP shop they make it legal, all in the same week. Biggest concern india appears to have now are wiretapping (cant tap an illegal network) and revenue (the bust that happened the gov was complaining about all the lost revenue). -- Trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com Bret McDanel UK +44 870 340 4605 Germany +49 801 777 555 3402 US +1 360 207 0479 or +1 516 687 5200 FreeWorldDialup: 635378 http://www.sacaug.org/ Sacramento Asterisk Users Group -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
