Since many CLECs (Competitve Local Exchange Carriers in NA) offer fractional PRI, combined with Internet/Data, I haven't seen any demand for ISDN BRIs for voice or data since early 90s.

More people would get BRI if there were affordable hardware for it. I would like to see them write a NAm driver for it. To get them to take the chance, there have to be enough people willing to purchase the card to make them consider it seriously. The other option is a bounty or community support to get it done. The hardware already exists. The more people make noise about this, the better the chances of that happening. -Stephen- _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ----------------------------------------- Disclaimer: This e-mail communication and any attachments may contain confidential and privileged information and is for use by the designated addressee(s) named above only.
