I use the Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH with openwrt here. They are great for remote locations with a few sets -- you can have them hook up to the central server over an openvpn tunnel. I have ~20 sets hooked up to one with no issues at all. That being said, we probably only hit 7 or 8 concurrent calls at any point during the day. Even so, the resources on the router are not close to exhaustion. If you do try it, make sure that you do not have the iptables nat helper module installed. It's not helping you and causes problems when the router is the sip server and not hosting a sip client. -M -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
