What kind of voice connections are you using? VoIP? PSTN? What is your hardware? You can probably solve quality issues without doing a complete reinstall, and you should be able to get reliable results with most all kernel versions and asterisk versions. There are some exceptions, but versions of asterisk and the linux kernel that come with trixbox have generally been tested to work before trixbox gets released. If your connections are VoIP, the first area to look at for quality is network jitter/congestion/drops. If your connections are analog PSTN, can you get reliable connections without asterisk in the picture? Also, if PSTN, is your voice card sharing interrupts with anything else?
Why install Centos -- its really old?
Does that make it less good? I've found CentOS to be exceptionally stable, which is my most important criteria. It has too many services running by default, but that's an easy problem to solve. - Noah _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
