Hi Lee, I use a Diva Server card here with Asterisk using Chan_capi. The basic BRI card has one BRI port. They also have a model with 4 port BRI model. You can mix and match Diva Server card too, so as your needs expand you can add more cards to your server. Further information can be found on the Eicon website: http://www.eicon.com/worldwide/solutions/Diva_Server_and_Asterisk and http://www.eicon.com/worldwide/products/MediaGateways/all-in-one.htm Thanks David -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com]On Behalf Of Lee Archer Sent: 14 November 2005 09:32 To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: [Asterisk-Users] ISDN card required Can anyone point me in the direction of a quality, works with Asterisk, BRI card.

So far - the 4-port ISDN HFC chipset cards from Junghanns.net works well and is half the price of a 4-port Eicon card.

Thanks to all. I'll probably go with the quadBri card they do.

AFAIK the bristuff package for 1.2 is quiet out-of-date. btw: have you ever used chan_misdn from beronet with quadBRI cards? Any experiences? regards klaus
Junghanns is a very good card, Sirrix (www.sirrix.de <http://www.sirrix.de>) also do a good card with its own channel driver - saves hassels with BRIstuff needed with Jungahnns. In the end its down to personal preference. Sirrix comes in quad version, Junghans in quad and octo.

Less hassle? Then I would recommend the Eicon Diva Server Cards. Active cards with full support for any ISDN line protocol, Modem, Fax and support with Asterisk via a generic channel driver (chan_capi, tested with other cards too). How less hassle do you need?

I could do without playing with multiple versions of drivers trying to find one that works. And I could do with not spending days trying to make the card work with the ISDN lines. Bascially I could do with a card which has linux 2.6 drivers, works with Asterix and is documented.

If you want to use a precompiled driver, then you need to download the one that matches your kernel version exactly. It is not a case of having to try different drivers to see which one works. If you are in doubt, then download the source driver from the website. As long as you have the kernel build packages installed for your system, then it is just a case of running the ./Build command. This will then build the driver for your specific kernel. Kernel 2.6.X is supported!! Regarding spending days making the ISDN Line work with the card, it is first important to know about your settings of the line. Switch Type, Layer 2 connect mode, whether it is point-to-point or point-to-multipoint. If you have a QSIG PBX, then there are also some additional parameters that you need to know. Unfortunately, no card is clever enough to work out what sort of ISDN line you have connected. This information needs to come from the ISDN Line provider itself. I'm sure this is true for all ISDN cards. As the eicon diva server card has a CAPI 2.0 compliant driver, then using the chan_capi from Sourceforge works. Documentation on the card is provided by the Diva Server for Linux reference guide and assistance is also provided via the telephone support line. In short, the Diva Server range of cards, works with Asterisk, works with Kernel 2.6.X as is well documented. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com]On Behalf Of Lee Archer Sent: 15 November 2005 09:52 To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] ISDN card required I could do without playing with multiple versions of drivers trying to find one that works.
