I have an Asterisk server with 3 TDM400P cards. 9 FXO and 3 FXS ports. It also has 2 Astribank-8 units connected. The customer is having calls dropped at random intervals but several times a day. Could this be an issue with Interrupts with the 3 cards? I am also having a problem sending and receiving faxes when they are either connected to the Astribank or to an FXS port on the TDM card. I know there are issues with Asterisk and faxes but I have never had so many problems in a single installation. Some faxes go through (mostly to local numbers) but long distance calls always give a transmission error on the fax machine. Any tips? I am using Asterisk 1.2.13 and Zaptel 1.2.11 on a CentOS 4.4 dual core server. -- Carlos Chavez Director de Tecnolog?a Telecomunicaciones Abiertas de M?xico S.A. de C.V. Tel: +52-55-91169161 Ext 2001

You should be able to see where this hangup came from.> > I am also having a problem sending and receiving faxes when they are > either connected to the Astribank or to an FXS port on the TDM card.

Do you guarantee that faxes go on a channel with no echo cancelling? If you want to fak from the ports of the Astribank, you'll probably need to use adj_clock . Also make sure that you set the kernel parameter prefmaster of xpp to 0, so it won't force itself t become the zaptel master.> > Any tips?

I've been getting a number of dropped calls today with the following visible in the logs: Feb 5 12:06:29 DEBUG[8340] channel.c: Bridge stops because we're zombie or need a soft hangup: c0=SIP/peachnet-213243-b7830fd8, c1=SIP/2142-08f4b6a0, flags: No,No,No,Yes Feb 5 12:06:29 DEBUG[8340] channel.c: Bridge stops bridging channels SIP/peachnet-213243-b7830fd8 and SIP/2142-08f4b6a0 Feb 5 12:06:29 DEBUG[8340] res_features.c: Timed out for feature!
