Hi all, How are things going ? Is there a way for me to individually identify each BRI channel on the Sirrix quad BRI board. The reason I ask is because our client uses the "Asterisk Flash Operator Panel" to monitor its external lines and transfer calls from the lines to the various SIP phones. The "Flash Operator Panel" requires that we set a static value for each line or

Hi guys, How's things going ? Got a bit of a weird one here that I've been unable to solve. I have a Panasonic PBX linked to a Sirrix Quad BRI card that is running in TE (ptp) mode in a Asterisk box - this then links through Internet to another Asterisk box via IAX2. When a user on the Panasonic PBX system dials the extension of my Sirrix Asterisk box, Asterisk answers and says

Which PCIe cards work with North American BRI & Asterisk? Digium & Sangoma don't support it, according to everything I've read (their manuals and their tech support). I think I need National, maybe National 1 or National 2. I already got an NT-1. I'm getting a few ISDN phones to test the circuit. I ordered a Dialogic Diva Diva 4BRI - 8 PCI-E 4 Ports Quad 803-031-02B Gu...

I have a test install set up as follows Grandstream 102 ---- Asterisk ---- X100P ---- Adtran Express 3000 --- ISDN line to PSTN Most things I want to do work fine except I do have some intermittent problems with an echo. I am assuming that this is created in the link between the X100P and the Adtran terminal adaptor. I am not sure of the proper terms but on the PSTN side of the Adtran there is

Hello everyone. I need a BRI ISDN card that works in Romania. I already have one of the "Cologne HFC-S" PCI cards and it doesn't work right, it's junk. I get waaaay too much echo using it. I'm now "shopping" for a better card. Can anyone recommend me a card that "fits" the following: (a) Costs less then $1000 / 750 euro (b) Has one or (preferably) two

Hi, I am thinking of starting a project at Work to pilot to use of Astrisk and VOIP, and would like to tie in several projects together. Currently we are looking at purchasing an ISDN and H.323 based video conferencing system from Polycom. It suggests the use of 3-4 BRI lines (ie 6-8 B channels, but in the form of individual BRIs). We need ISDN for the video conferencing to communicate with

Hi, folks! Sangoma has an informal user survey up on their home page (at http://www.sangoma.com) asking if people would use their A500 card for North American BRI, if it were supported. I encourage anyone with an interest in voice BRI in North America to vote; this information will be used for deciding whether to make the investment in developing a National ISDN driver layer for it. Benefits to

Anyone actually got this working with asterisk ? I have read posts that it is possible with capi and the diva server cards. Regular diva and diva pro both claim to support NI-1 and NI-2 and CAPI - will they work as well ? Has anyone actually got it working ? Forget the should and could part, I only care about the does/doesn't and why. If you have it working, please tell me - telco,

hello list, i have a problem regarding the synchronisity (clock source) when using multiple cards. e.g. when having connected one PRI port of our TE410P to the telco, i need to have the analog card like the TDM400P or a B410P synchronous to the clock of our telco provider. otherwise faxing on the analog cards does not work or i get cracking noise or even hangups on my BRI lines, due to bit slips.

Hi guys, I'm running a Sirrix PCI4S0 quad BRI card in a box with Asterisk CVS-HEAD (20050614). Something I've come across is that with 'echocancel = yes' in /etc/asterisk/sirrix.conf the echo is unbearably loud - so loud in fact that the echo distorts. To remedy this I've set 'echocancel = no' and disabled the echo cancellation. With the echo cancellation disabled

Hello everyone, I'm hoping someone can help me with this. I have a business customer in the U.S. (Michigan, AT&T Territory). I need to get 4 trunks into an asterisk Box. My intention is to use an Eicon Diva Server card with 2 BRI Circuits. The reason for this is that the business needs DID's on the trunks (20 of them). A full or fractional PRI is overboard for them, as they will

Hi, I'm in the process of setting up Asterisk in a SOHO environment using ISDN for trunking. More specifically a BRI 2B+D circuit where one SPID is used for the business and the other is used for personal. The circuit already exists, but is presently being interfaced to POTS phones via a TA. This configuration is not very common in the US, but we are fortunate that our LEC offers it price

Hi, Anybody have lots of experience with PCI ISDN cards and Asterisk? I'm thinking of getting a BRI in my house to deliver more advanced signaling to my PBX (yes, I'm a geek :-)) but I've never played with isdn4linux. Is there any particular BRI card that works better with Asterisk than any other? Also, can the BRI interface cards participate in conference, etc., since they

Hey all, It such a shame that BRI technology is such a flop in the USA. For a small office such as mine it would be a great product. So her goes my question.... What is a known asterisk working BRI card that will operate in the USA. I need to weigh price/quality. I need to do DID/DDI (or what ever you want to call it). Asterisk will do everything else I need. The ILEC has at the other

Hello everyone! I've got a Eicon Diva Server BRI card into my "*" box working just fine, but I wander if there's anything I can do to improve voice quality for my operators. I'm thinking something along the lines of "auto gain" and sudden noise suppression (like when you hit a fax machine or the other party accidently touches the dial pad on the phone). Does

I have a North American BRI configured as National ISDN (NI-1) on an SBC (Nortel?) switch. SBC calls this "FastTrak ISDN", and it's surprisingly inexpensive -- less than two POTS lines. I've been trying to find an inexpensive PCI interface solution to connect this to Asterisk as voice lines. I prefer ISDN BRI over POTS lines because of the improved signalling, fast dialing,

Hi all, I have a sirrix bri card, connected to 2 ISDN lines.I used to get a lot of slips on it, so i put the 'master' setting to 'yes'. But every couple of hours the machine completly hangs, and i have to reboot it. I only get 1 or 2 slips,I dont know whats wrong? yusuf

I wrote a week or two ago about a problem I was having with a TDM400P with 2 FXS. The problem was reliable fax transfers. There were often slow or had communication failures during transmission. Richard replied to my post and told me this is an ongoing problem that might have a solution in the weeks to come. However, I was wondering if anyone had any alternate solutions for faxing with an

Hi all Does Digium make a quad BRI card? I can't see anything of the sort on their page but I thought they might call it something else in the States. Failing that, can anyone recommend a make/model that would handle 4 BRI ports? -- Cheers Wayne

I was wondering if anyone can help me with a problem we have at one of our sites. We have setup a Asterisk Trunk to a Avaya PBX, ie ... Avaya <-> Asterisk (1.2.30) <-> External ISDN Network BUT They also have a Polycom VSX 7000 that with some sort of BRI converters that plugs into the Avaya. The Trunk is working well except for Video Conference Calls. The Polocom can receive
